TABLE OF CONTENTS

A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO Every day, Heart of Florida United Way (HFUW) fights for ALICE families – or Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Nearly half of Central Floridians fit into this population. By delivering programs to support ALICE, investing in solutions and convening passionate people around important issues, HFUW works tirelessly to make Central Florida a better place to be for everyone.

HFUW’s resilience was put to the test in 2020 with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our local economy was ravaged, suffering disproportionately compared to the rest of the state or even the nation. Furloughs, layoffs, missed rental and utility payments, increased mental health issues, hunger, and domestic violence were concerns that challenged many of our neighbors. Amid the chaos, our office went virtual in a matter of four days in order to maintain a commitment to staff safety. Even so, we had a responsibility to serve the community. Our staff never stopped serving Central Florida. Although 2020 brought many challenges, it also gave us a chance to lead the community through some of its darkest times. Today, we continue to meet challenges from the effects of COVID-19, and we continue to show up and lead in our community.

Although times have been challenging, HFUW is proud to be the voice for those in need, sound the alarm on important issues, and orchestrate collaboration with community leaders. We are proud to make an impact in many different areas through our own volunteer opportunities and through the partner agencies we support. Even today, the team at HFUW continues to meet the community’s needs head-on by working directly with clients through this crisis. Our 211 Call Specialists, Case Managers, and other client-facing staff have helped those in need navigate the system of resources. Our team handled more than four times the normal number of 211 calls, and provided vital support to keep Central Floridians afloat. And we are still here answering the call.

There is a lot of work left to be done in our community, but the efforts of leaders and change makers in our community will continue to provide the hope and relief needed to move forward together as we continue to Live United.

EDUCATION WE LIVE UNITED FOR EDUCATION A good education is the foundation to a better life. With a solid education, doors of opportunity open towards sustainable employment, and thus, financial stability. Because of United Way’s investments, 71,436 children, youth, and parents/guardians participated in programs and services that increased their chance for success in school, work, and life.

UNITED WAY MANAGED PROGRAMS IMPACT 16 four-year-olds participating in Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten (VPK) classrooms participated in weekly reading comprehension activities for 32 hours combined that helped develop essential literacy skills through ReadingPals.

4

FINANCIAL STABILITY WE LIVE UNITED FOR FINANCIAL STABILITY Financial stability is a key component to living a better life. With nearly half of the Central Florida population falling into the ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) category, financial stability can be next to impossible to achieve when living paycheck-to-paycheck. Despite the continuing financial obstacle of COVID-19, Heart of Florida United Way served 144,766 Central Floridians last year through financial stability programs.

UNITED WAY MANAGED PROGRAMS IMPACT 2,583 households received free, in-person tax preparation assistance with an IRS-trained volunteer through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) sites, AARP locations or filed online using MyFreeTaxes.com, resulting in $3,409,696 in tax refunds. 379 low-to-moderate income households received tax refunds by claiming the federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) through United Way’s financial stability coalition.

UNITED WAY FUNDED PROGRAMS FAST FACTS • 911 youth and 208 adults received job skills training through community investments • 100% of adults reached through community investments earned job-relevant licenses, certificates, and/or credentials • 6,053 people accessed affordable financial services (e.g., checking and saving accounts, credit cards, loans, etc.)

5

HEALTH WE LIVE UNITED FOR HEALTH Being healthy is central to living a better life. Whether it’s access to regular check-ups, having someone to talk to about your mental well-being or learning healthy behaviors, being healthy can dramatically influence someone’s life. United Way supported programs and services that helped 46,352 Central Floridians increase their health and avoid risky behaviors by participating in programs designed to improve the health of children, youth, and adults.

UNITED WAY MANAGED PROGRAMS IMPACT 2,353 HIV/AIDS patients in Orange, Osceola, Seminole and Brevard Counties improved their quality of life through the Ryan White Part B/General Revenue programs, funded by the Florida Department of Health.

276 children and their families were able to identify potential developmental or behavioral concerns and were linked to community supports through the Help Me Grow program.

UNITED WAY FUNDED PROGRAMS FAST FACTS • 31,337 children, youth and adults obtained health care services • 348 mothers and 938 babies accessed preventative healthcare • 10,582 participated in physical activity and/or healthy food access/nutrition programs • 63% of children demonstrated appropriate levels of developmental functioning

6

BASIC NEEDS WE LIVE UNITED FOR BASIC NEEDS There are basic necessities that everyone requires to live a better life. Food and housing are at the top of the list, but according to the United Way ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) Report, nearly half of Central Florida is struggling to consistently provide the basics.

United Way worked to reduce the level of crisis for 348,118 of our community members by helping to meet immediate, emergency needs through programs and services.

UNITED WAY MANAGED PROGRAMS IMPACT 223,003 individuals received assistance through United Way’s 211 Information and Referral Crisis Line. Ranging from suicide crisis de-escalation to hurricane season information to connecting individuals with resources to meet housing, food, healthcare and utility needs, 211 was there to answer the call 24/7/365.

UNITED WAY FUNDED PROGRAMS FAST FACTS • 4,951 individuals and their families received case management and low barrier shelter/ housing services • 34,307,451 meals were served through congregate meal services and emergency food pantries • 99% of seniors reported “maintained or improved” ability to live independently • 98% of seniors reported “maintained or improved” physical and mental well-being

7

VETERANS WE LIVE UNITED FOR VETERANS Making it home is only half the battle. Mission United is a collective effort that addresses the complicated and fragmented systems of veteran services currently in place. It is a community collaboration that serves as a central contact for veterans to access community support and resources.

UNITED WAY MANAGED PROGRAMS IMPACT 1,186 veterans and their families received information, resources, and assistance specific to their needs in the areas of education, employment and legal assistance. 86% of veterans were connected to a service that met their needs.

UNITED WAY FUNDED PROGRAMS FAST FACTS • 615 veterans received case management services • 223 veterans received emergency financial assistance • 145 veterans received legal consultation services and 93 veterans received legal representation to increase financial stability and/or avoid eviction due to impacts by the COVID-19 pandemic • 67% of veterans obtained the preferred decision regarding a divorce or child custody/ support/paternity action/domestic violence protection orders • 50% of veterans removed a barrier to employment by sealing or expunging a criminal record • 76% of veterans had an eviction prevented or delayed • 52% of veterans obtained, preserved, or increased income • 31 veterans gained employment • 583 veterans accessed income support such as public assistance, transportation, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), etc.

WOMEN UNITED WE ARE WOMEN UNITED As an integral part of Heart of Florida United Way, Women United® fights for the health, education and financial stability of every person in Central Florida. As part of a powerful, global network of over 70,000 women leaders, we are taking a stand against the most critical issues facing more than 165 communities in six countries.

WOMEN UNITED IMPACT By supporting the Heart of Florida United Way, of the 728,095 individuals served, Women United helped touch the lives of 223,205 women and their families, providing services designed to create a thriving community where adults and children achieve their full potential with access to a solid education, good health, safe neighborhoods, and jobs that pay a living wage.

WOMEN UNITED IMPACT FAST FACTS • Women represented at least 56% of the clients served • At least 43% of the households served were led by women • 123 Women United members led the charge and inspired the change this year, comprised of 83 Investor Level members and 40 Supporters • Women United raised $330,858 this year to help continue to make a change in the community

VOLUNTEERS WHO LIVE UNITED Volunteers impact all facets of United Way’s mission. Heart of Florida United Way’s Volunteer Resource Center (VRC) harnesses the caring power of our community to create lasting change. Overall, 1,908 volunteers contributed 19,124 hours of service, saving local nonprofit agencies $545,798.

Thanksgiving Project 2020: For the second year, Heart of Florida United Way dished out 1,500 Thanksgiving meal kits with a side of hope at three sites throughout Central Florida. The Thanksgiving Project alleviated some financial burden for 1,500 prequalified ALICE households (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) by reducing expenses for a big holiday meal.

Week of Action 2021: To kick off the New Year and to honor the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the VRC organized 7 days of opportunities for over 200 volunteers. These activities included virtual options, outdoor beautification projects, and webinars to learn about how volunteering can benefit not just the community, but those who give their time.

Share the Love 2021: Share the Love brings together volunteers to create care packages or items for groups in need. In 2021, volunteers crafted 220 no-sew fleece blankets for Veterans in our community, both in-person and utilizing Volunteer-At-Home kits via mail.

Community Baby Shower 2021: Postponed from 2020, HFUW was able to creatively host a safe first ever Community Baby Shower for new and expecting families in Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties. This combination of a virtual resource fair and drive-thru distribution provided 100 ALICE households with needed baby items. Over 300 Volunteers made baby blankets, packed and distributed gift bags, boxed lunches, and special cookies to each participating household.

Local Group Volunteering: Whether corporate based or a community group, the VRC is always available to help match groups with their ideal opportunity. Even during the pandemic, the VRC found creative and safe ways to help volunteers continue to impact their community. This included multiple beautification outings (outdoors), virtual card-making activities, and shipping Volunteer-at-Home kits.

Volun-Tourism: In 2020, the hospitality industry was impacted by COVID-19 and group cancellations. Prior to 2020, 75 million people visited the Orlando area. The VRC has established a line of Volun-Tourism products to appeal to individual, corporate, and convention visitors to extend the benefit of our local Tourism industry. These programs harness the volunteer power of groups ranging from 3 to 3,000 participants to support the community through meal packing, bike assembly, and other engaging projects. As visitors begin to return to our area, our VRC is helping to bring Corporate Social Responsibility opportunities to life through engaging volunteer activities.

WATCH VIDEO

In appreciation of our Leadership Donors, SeaWorld Orlando invited United Way supporters and United Way staff for a day in the park during the month of December, offering a safe and family-friendly environment for guests to enjoy the holidays in Central Florida.

WOMEN UNITED LUNCHEON March 2021 Host Sponsor: Orlando Health The Women United Luncheon draws prominent female business and community leaders from across the tri-county area to learn more about getting involved with the Central Florida community and be inspired by a keynote address. This year’s speaker was Lisa Nichols, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Motivating the Masses, Inc. Lisa’s extraordinary story of transforming her own life from public assistance for her family to leading a multi-million dollar enterprise is the inspiration behind her bold mission to teach others that it is possible to do the same. She left the audience with the empowering boost we all needed to begin establishing our goals and tap into our limitless potential.

THE STATE OF OUR FAMILIES June 2021 At the virtual State of Our Families event, attendees had the opportunity to learn more about the current state of Central Florida and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) in Central Florida’s tri-county area. Community leaders came together to discuss opportunities and challenges in the areas of education, transportation, housing, and workforce.

VITA VOLUNTEER CELEBRATION July 2021 The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Volunteer Celebration honors the volunteers who contributed tens of thousands of hours to help Central Floridians prepare their taxes and put millions of dollars back into the pockets of people who are struggling to survive during a time of crisis.

A VIRTUAL YEAR

When the HFUW office pivoted to working remotely in 2020, events had to be reimagined as well. Attendees traded in ballrooms for webcams, and HFUW utilized a new virtual platform called Remo (shown above) to host interactive and engaging events from the safety of their homes.

From a lively virtual Women United Luncheon to the informative State of Our Families, HFUW kept audiences feeling inspired and informed.

UNITED WAY RECOGNIZED FOR HELPING OTHERS IN CENTRAL FLORIDA Over the past year, Heart of Florida United Way has led the charge, fighting for those who have been directly impacted by COVID-19. We fought for families who lost wages, lost essential health insurance coverage, and struggled to feed their families. Donor In June 2020, Orlando Family Magazine recognized Jeff Hayward, our CEO, as one of the Super Men of 2020 for his work in “helping to improve Orlando.”

Graciela Noriega Jacoby, Chief Operating Officer, was awarded the prestigious Don Quijote Excellence Award by the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Metro Orlando and Prospera.

In September 2020, the City of Orlando recognized Andrés Acosta, Planning Council Support Coordinator from the Ryan White Program, with the Hispanic Heritage Unsung Hero award.

The Orlando Business Journal named Jeff Hayward as a “Game Changer in 2021” and a “business leader to watch” because of “Heart of Florida United Way’s effort to help people during the pandemic.”

In November 2020, Jeff Hayward was recognized by the Orlando Business Journal as a “CEO of the Year” honoree because Heart of Florida United Way “has worked to stay nimble during the COVID-19 pandemic.”

In April 2021, Orlando Business Journal recognized Mission United Manager Norris Henderson as a 2021 Veteran of Influence.

Melanie Cross, Planning Council Support Manager also from our Ryan White Program, was recognized as a “Service Award” recipient on World AIDS Day 2020.

18

generosity made it possible for us to maintain the capacity needed to respond to our community. And our efforts have not gone unnoticed. The local community, and others far and wide, recognized our staff for their hard work and commitment to the mission.

Our entire organization, specifically our 211 Information and Referral Crisis Line, received recognition in the Florida Trend Magazine, naming the non-profit sector its “Floridian of the Year” for playing a “vital role amid the pandemic, maintaining a safety net for millions of struggling Floridians.”

Transforming Our Community

HFUW closed out 2020 with some of the most incredible news in our entire 82-year history. Our organization was honored to have received the largest gift in our history from author and national philanthropist, MacKenzie Scott. She and her team “took a data-driven approach to identify organizations with strong leadership teams and results…” and awarded HFUW with a transformational gift that will help drive significant and lasting change here in Central Florida.
