Dear Friends,
North Shore United Way started with a simple formula. When you give, you improve the lives of your neighbors and build stronger communities across the North Shore.
As you peruse the pages of this Annual Report, it’s our hope that you connect with the faces of people who you have personally touched and learn about the lives you have transformed by your generosity.
Last year held some significant highlights in our work.
• The Tribute Fund honored Rosemary and Caleb
Loring, Jr. From contributions to The Tribute Fund,
NSUW awarded the first Youth Innovation Grants, which you can read about on pages 4 and 5. Each grant is a fitting legacy to the lives celebrated by The Tribute Fund.
• The Women in Action initiative celebrated a milestone raising $100,000 in three years, 100% of which directly fueled local initiatives to reduce childhood obesity and improve the physical health of families. You can read about the most recently funded projects on pages 10 and 11.
• We launched a local Volunteer Hub to help residents find and connect with more than 60 nonprofits and hundreds of meaningful volunteer opportunities in their community. The back cover explains what this site is about. The best way to see for yourself is to visit volunteer.nsuw.org.
We are grateful for the continued support of so many loyal donors and the interest and energy of new ones who are joining with NSUW to change the BIG picture for local children and families. Thank you for your generosity, for your commitment to local communities, and your service!
Sincerely,
Mark W. Johnson and Ann Noble-Kiley
Board Co-Chairs, 2013-2014
Margo Casey
Executive Director
People across the North Shore partner with North
Shore United Way to improve their communities and transform the lives of neighbors in need.
One of the most important ways they participate is through grant review. Every year more than 60 local individuals with diverse skills and experience serve on the Grant Review Committee. Volunteers rigorously vet dozens of programs to ensure goals are clearly articulated and meaningful community impact will be effectively achieved.
NSUW’s vision is of strong communities that provide greater financial security for those struggling to meet basic needs; better health and well being for all, especially the most vulnerable; and more resources to help children and their families thrive.

This is how Melissa and Mike describe their experience as parents of a child on the autism spectrum who is unable to speak.
Since Joey was a toddler, they sought and tried different tools promising to help him communicate, but never made the progress they wanted.
Eventually their quest brought them to
Northeast Arc who gave them the green light to pilot a new Touch to Talk program. Touch to Talk supports families using iPads and corresponding communication apps designed to allow children to share their needs by touching pictures.
“What has ensued,” say Melissa and Mike,
“has been the most promising progress Joey had made in his short eight years. For the first time, we heard Joey’s voice.” Some of Joey’s first requests included: going swimming, eating French fries (many times), and saying “hi” to his therapists.
For parents who never thought they would hear their son’s voice, the iPad represents hope. Melissa and Mike can meet not only
“It’s an amazing opportunity for kids in Gloucester.
My daughter did not qualify for an IEP but is still in need of extra help reading. This program is helping her gain confidence.”
“Thank you for having this program. It helps my child with reading and helps me so I can work and support my children.”
“Today I read about sharks, and shark teeth!
They are so sharp they can cut through anything!”
“Look! I can spell Fahrenheit!”
Kids read an average of two books per day.
The program is designed by a certified teacher to inspire a love of learning with weekly topics including sharks, coral reefs, weather, volcanoes, and space.
Kids spend afternoons having fun at the Y’s
Camp Windward. They participate in physical activities like swimming and gym games.
Joey’s physical needs but hear and respond to his desires—something all parents love to do. Joey’s brothers, teachers, and therapists can reach him. When Melissa and Mike think about the future, they are optimistic that Joey will be able to participate in his education and in his community.
Joey’s story is one reason that North
Shore United Way was thrilled to award a Youth Innovation Grant extending
Northeast Arc’s Touch to Talk program into public elementary schools in Beverly.
This September eight to ten families will be introduced to personal iPads, communication apps, and the support they need to use them without cost barriers.
In just seven words, a child expresses what this program is about. But it isn’t a statement you might expect from a kid who tested six-months behind his grade level peers.
The program, run by the Cape Ann YMCA and funded by a Youth Innovation Grant, combines camp, summer fun, and learning. It enrolled 18 Gloucester kids who needed academic intervention.
Without summer learning opportunities, these kids were expected to start 3rd or 4th grade even further behind. That is too often the experience of children whose parents cannot afford expensive camps and learning opportunities when school is out of session.
This pilot is already showing progress. Mid-way through the session kids already read with more confidence. Perhaps success is best put by a mom,
“This program has helped my son in many ways beyond reading: It has challenged him socially and physically and has done wonders for his self-esteem and confidence. We started the summer with him not wanting to go, and very shortly into it, he was asking to stay the whole day and after! I am so grateful to everyone involved in this program, I know it was a collaboration made up of many sponsors, but your staff is the heart and soul of the program. I just can’t thank you enough for this opportunity!”

Below: BCLC kids love painting.
We are investing $333,765 in ten local programs to reach more than 12,000 youth and their families. We support: u Beverly Children’s Learning Center : $20,000 for Happy,
Healthy, Fit Kids ensuring 48 school age kids enjoy regular fun physical activities and classes in healthy eating.
u Children’s Friend & Family Services : $35,000 to match
38 young people with a caring adult mentor.
u Girl Scouts of Eastern MA : $15,265 for Girls Together,
Aspiring for Tomorrow to empower 90 girls from low-income neighborhoods with a specially designed scouting program. u Lahey Health Behavioral Services : $115,000 to run
Student Assistance Programs in middle and high schools in
Beverly, Ipswich, Gloucester, and Rockport, reaching 2,845 youth with a compassionate professional counselor to listen and advise students when life gets tough.
u Northeast Arc: $8,000 to support advocacy for 64 children with developmental disabilities to access Special
Education Services, including early intervention. $13,750 will support Recreational Programs for 334 children with developmental disabilities to learn and grow through exposure to special events and activities throughout the school year and summer months. $12,750 will engage volunteers in the lives of 186 individuals with developmental disabilities, building an active community to support them. u Pathways for Children : $37,000 to ensure 222 children have safe, reliable transportation to early education where they can prepare to start kindergarten with the skills needed for long-term success in school.
u YMCA of the North Shore : $40,000 supports the Y After
School Program for 835 children ages 5-12 to have a safe, supervised place to experience fun, friends, learning enrichment, physical fitness, and mentoring. $37,000 provides Teen Centers for 7,401 youth to engage their cognitive, emotional and physical development.
This is Joy’s hope as she graduates high school and enrolls at Bridgewater State University with a full tuition scholarship.
Joy credits Mary, her mentor, for helping her succeed. Their match was made by Children’s
Friend and Family Services, funded by NSUW.
Mary and Joy have stuck together for five years, recently celebrating Joy’s graduation. Mary was there to share the ups and downs of high school life. She was there when Joy took a job as a shift manager at a local restaurant to support her family. Mary made sure Joy took time to be a kid, encouraged good decisions, and schoolwork.
Joy plans to major in Accounting and minor in Criminal Justice. She says, “I am very grateful and honored to be able to better my life and begin a new chapter toward something successful.”
Youth mentoring is one of ten causes we support in order to reach youth and help them succeed. We invest in youth mentoring because research shows time spent with a trusted adult has a dramatic impact on kids. Youth with mentors are half as likely to skip school. They report less depression, less drug use, and higher self-esteem. In short, this is one way we can improve the lives of youth and break cycles of poverty in the next generation.

Our goal is to improve health outcomes for children, adults and seniors, offering preventative services that optimize health and reduce cost burdens. These solutions will touch
6,357 people this year as we invest $164,000 in the health of the community. We support: u AIDS Action Committee: $28,000 for Case Management for 25 adults living with HIV/AIDS.
u HAWC : $25,000 to fund the Cape Ann Program offering outreach and support to 449 domestic violence survivors.
u North Shore Health Project : $16,000 for a Holistic
Wellness Program for 93 individuals.
u The Open Door : $27,800 for the Food Pantry, $12,500 for Community Meals, and $20,000 for Mobile Markets, all of which provide healthy food and fresh produce to 5,684 people.
u VNA Care Network & Hospice : $35,000 to provide care for 106 seniors and individuals with disabilities.
This isn’t how most of us imagine describing any aspect of cancer treatment. But after a hospital discharge that left Brian unsure of how to care for his feeding tube, a nurse from VNA Care Network & Hospice was a big relief.
Brian adds, “When the nurse came to see me it was great.
He was personable, helpful, and taught me how to take care of it and answered my questions.”
Brian’s gastrostomy tube is a medical device used to provide nutrition to patients who cannot eat by mouth, are unable to swallow safely, or need nutritional supplementation. To make sure he fully understood, the nurse used the Teach Back method--an intervention that asks a patient to respond and confirm understanding of their treatment before adding any new information.
Despite increased access to health care for many, there remain gaps particularly for elderly, disabled, and lowincome individuals. Through Home Based Services for the
Underserved, VNA Care Network & Hospice helps ensure that care is provided to those in need.
Our goal is to invest in strategies, such as affordable housing, that help low-income families become and stay more financially secure. We are investing $233,000 in local programs that will help 6,316 families avoid hunger or homelessness and pursue financial security. We support: u American Red Cross : $5,000 to support local response and emergency services for 12 people.
u Beverly Bootstraps Community Services: $35,000 for
Case Management services that support the efforts of 1,845 people to pursue financial stability and $5,000 to prepare taxes for 112 people likely to benefit from the Earned
Income Tax Credit.
u Catholic Charities North : $54,000 to provide emergency basic needs response to 845 people.
u Harborlight Community Partners: $30,000 for the creation or preservation of affordable housing which provide a safe, dignified home to 137 people.
u North Shore CDC : $10,000 for the development of affordable housing to support 43 people.
u Salvation Army : $35,000 to provide emergency assistance to 1,900 Beverly area people.
u St. Vincent de Paul : $39,000 to the St. John’s and St.
Mary’s in Beverly based volunteers to provide basic needs response to 1,297 people.
u Wellspring House : $20,000 to offer adult basic education to 125 adults seeking to find better jobs and provide for their families.

(1,300+ kids) the experience of growing and eating veggies.

u Change is Simple: $3,300 to expand Mobile Garden Education to Beverly’s Summer Parks Program, exposing kids ages 6-12 to the benefits of eating healthy food they can also grow.
u Beverly Farmers’ Market : $2,500 for incentives for low-income families to use their SNAP benefits to purchase produce.

Women in Action invested in Change is
Simple, a local, grass roots education organization, to bring the FastFood Garden
Trailer to Beverly’s Summer Park Programs.
Can you guess what veggie was the most popular for the nearly 400 elementary school kids who tested out the garden?
Kale! “Can I have kale? Yummy” was heard over and over from kids exploring the garden during their park visit.
Also overheard this summer: “I love green beans!” and “Delicious!” as a 10 year old girl tried raw green pepper for the first time.
That’s the challenge that Cooking Matters classes help families overcome. This year WIA supports Cooking
Matters for families from Beverly Children’s Learning
Center, Acord Food Pantry, and Beverly Bootstraps.
Classes are taught by a volunteer chef and a nutrition educator. They cover meal preparation, smart grocery shopping, food budgeting, and nutrition. Participants take home a bag of groceries at the end of each class, learn to read nutrition labels, and make healthy meals on a $10 budget.
“I learned a lot more than just how to follow a recipe. I leaned about food safety and how to read labels.”
“I am excited to cook now and to fill my empty cupboards with the things we used in class so I can make healthy fun meals that taste good too.”
“In a very good way, the classes changed my way of eating vegetables.”
