Assistance may include food, clothing, furniture, rent, utility, transportation, medical, emotional and spiritual support. The ultimate goal is to meet emergency or basic needs, keeping families together by preventing homelessness and promoting self-sufficiency through our programs. 0 0 12456904 11809112 Vincentian Services: Vincentian services include the home visit and food assistance ministries conducted through Conferences. The home visit ministry provides home visits to people in need to determine the exact nature and details of help required. This includes direct financial assistance as well as emotional and spiritual support. The food assistance ministry provides food to people in need through pantries operated by 16 Conferences. Through the home visit and food assistance ministries, the Vincentians identify those issues critical to people living in poverty while raising awareness so communities and elected representatives can develop strategies aimed at reducing or eliminating poverty. 547540 400041 Food Network:Food network serves ten counties in the Galveston-Houston area by providing administrative and operational support to the sixteen food pantries operated by the Conferences as part of Vincentian services and one pantry operated by The Council. All food pantries supported by The Council are authorized to distribute food commodities for the Emergency Food Assistance Program and promote healthy diets by providing food items, special diet items and household goods, such as paper products, baby items and hygiene necessities. 985617 24613 Thrift Stores and Voucher Ministry:Thrift stores and voucher ministry focus on addressing needs by fostering a dignified family environment for seniors, parents, and children to shop for low cost goods. The Society's thrift stores offer low-cost goods to the general public and thrifty shoppers. Stores display vintage, gently used, and occasionally unused merchandise for those in need to shop and choose with dignity. There are often sales, special events, and mark-downs that make the merchandise even more accessible. For those individuals and families who lack the resources to purchase items from one of the stores, the Society has a voucher ministry that includes giving vouchers to individuals to redeem for clothing at the two resale stores. 175371 72024 Resiliency: The Resiliency program includes Bridges Out of Poverty and nationally known "Getting Ahead in a Just-Gettin'-By World" (Getting Ahead). Phase I of the programs consist of a 16-week incentivized program that helps improve people's lives by assessing their own lives and circumstances and developing tools and skills as part of their move from crisis to self-sufficiency. Getting Ahead participants create their own plan to build more sustainable lives, healthy relationships with community members, short- and long-term goals, and step-by-step plans to achieve those goals. Once participants complete Phase I, they accelerate into Phase II, the Graduate program and are partnered with mentors to elevate their comprehension of financial budgeting and negotiation skills. Learning how to cope with daily life challenges and building the hope that's needed for a better future enables them to advance to the final phase, the Alumni program. Discovering how the right relationships can be a powerful aid to help people along the journey out of poverty, participants become ambassadors for the Society by becoming actively involved in sharing and promoting the success of the program as well as becoming mentors and program facilitators. 708814 595000 Underserved Communities: The Underserved Communities Initiative includes a grant funding program with the goal to create healthy and vibrant Conferences serving at-risk and distressed areas of Galveston-Houston. This program was designed utilizing the Distressed Communities Index (DCI) tool, which contains seven metrics to capture distinct aspects of economic distress -- education, housing, unemployment, employment instability, poverty rate, income ratio, and business growth. Often these communities have the greatest need but are limited in resources. This program is intended to build both human and financial capacity in areas that have been historically forgotten. Financial assistance is provided by these Conferences to individuals needing assistance with housing, utilities, and other basic needs besides food. 884185 667024 14874246 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 22 0 1 37 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 14 14 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X X Ann Schorno 7137418234 2403 Holcombe Blvd Houston TX 77021 Gerardo Rivera President 20.00 X X 0 0 0 Michael Zarich Vice President 6.00 X X 0 0 0 Ajoy Menezes Treasurer 7.00 X X 0 0 0 Connie Steward Secretary 6.00 X X 0 0 0 Charlie Buhay non-voting Spiritual Advisor 1.00 X 0 0 0 Janice Chatham Director 6.00 X 0 0 0 Patricia Davis Director 7.00 X 0 0 0 Patricia Dornak Director 6.00 X 0 0 0 Patricia Marin Director 6.00 X 0 0 0 Stacy Medrano Director 6.00 X 0 0 0 Maureen O'Connell Director 6.00 X 0 0 0 Ladd Puskus Director 6.00 X 0 0 0 Robin Riley Director 5.00 X 0 0 0 Ann Schorno Executive Director 45.00 X 123093 0 12535 Kirk Vogeley Director of Finance 45.00 X 67199 0 4924 190292 0 17459 1 0 0 0 0 699929 1878884 13660238 7432963 16239051 51721 51721 75000 699929 113005 -38005 -38005 793041 792196 845 845 16253612 0 0 14561 12900790 12900790 245957 53209 139539 53209 1094692 855342 83564 155786 206469 169835 15663 20971 91154 64238 11386 15530 35065 35065 144000 144000 1238 1238 146001 37786 51120 57095 8255 2670 5585 115305 102094 4532 8679 90806 72768 4832 13206 124830 117862 3761 3207 30895 27725 2940 230 55084 55084 70090 70090 142182 130148 6135 5899 59678 47836 8265 3577 Conference-level operat 197739 197739 Vehicle expenses 14297 14297 Formation/outreach 6189 6029 160 Other Conference-level 2055 2055 8560 1733 1491 5336 15791331 14874246 369691 547394 1392511 1647515 629100 977571 822586 774812 163540 82097 55763 48781 4027762 1772585 2388056 2255177 1129232 1242203 333757 327603 6914545 7355759 169927 203951 60000 0 431110 341651 661037 545602 X 5287397 5116281 966111 1693876 6253508 6810157 6914545 7355759 462281 94368 0 X 0 1 X 1 1 1 X 12715406 18047573 16622026 15799735 16239051 79423791 12715406 18047573 16622026 15799735 16239051 79423791 79423791 50164 45593 41645 34395 51721 223518 79647309 3540494 0.99720 0.99690 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 926790 926790 2335448 1209456 1125992 174789 174789 0 268928 178888 90040 321807 209452 112355 2255177 16346742 94368 94368 16252374 1238 1238 16253612 15790093 0 15790093 1238 1238 15791331 X X X X 1 Ellen Cokinos Consulting 529 Brown Saddle St Houston TX 77057 Endowment development 0 0 144000 0 144000 TX Fall '22 Gala 218510 177260 41250 2500 38135 1000 3625 Fall '23 Gala 556419 522669 33750 50539 1313 15893 774929 699929 75000 2500 88674 2313 19518 113005 -38005 Schedule G, Part I, Line 2b, Column (v) The agreement provides for reimbursement of expenses to be documented separately on monthly invoices.
