2023 ANNUAL REPORT

GREETINGS

Dear Friends of The League,

With your support, this past year has been filled with shining moments of notable progress and success. Our programs have been expanding to accommodate more in-person services and our presence in the community has nearly tripled with the creation of new partnerships and educational forums for the youth and adults at The League.

Since 1927, The League for People with Disabilities has built a foundation for individuals with physical, cognitive, and developmental disabilities to change their lives for the better. We have continued to build on the groundwork set forth by our founders, championing people-first, person-centered values and emulating their compassionate commitment to improving the lives of those we serve.

MY LEAGUE STORY: LEAGUE INDUSTRIES

Sixteen years ago, Tyrone interviewed for a position with League Industries, The League’s print, mail, and courier shop located in Towson. Since his hire date, Tyrone has been trained, mentored, and supported in a job where he has successfully delivered hundreds of thousands of pieces of mail all over Maryland. As a social enterprise of The League, League Industries employs individuals with disabilities and completes several major mailing contracts for the government.

Tyrone clocks in every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday morning with a smile and a positive attitude. He familiarizes himself with his delivery route and loads his League vehicle with the day’s mail. Some days his deliveries take him into the city, and other days he gets to drive scenic routes over the Bay Bridge and back. Regardless of where the road takes him, Tyrone drives carefully and delivers his mail with an exemplary level of customer service to ensure the satisfaction of League Industries’ many long-standing clients. Once he finishes his delivery assignments, Tyrone checks in with his supervisor to make sure there are no other tasks for him to complete, especially during the busy end-of-year holiday season where everyone typically puts in some extra effort.

One of the best things about employment with League Industries for Tyrone is the work-life balance that he is able to enjoy. In working three days out of the week, he can earn valuable wages and allot time for recreation and fitness in addition to attending the quarterly appreciation events hosted by The League’s Employee Culture Committee. As an accomplished bowler, Tyrone participates in two bowling leagues in Ellicott City and Gaithersburg where he has earned several medals with the Special Olympics. He attributes his success to practice and consistent core workouts at the gym.

When Tyrone is not navigating the bustling streets of Baltimore, eating pulled pork at the Employee Luau, or bowling a perfect game, he spends his free time shopping, sampling local cultural festivals, watching classic game shows on TV, and dancing with pretty ladies at CLUB1111 on the second Saturday of every month. At 49 years young, Tyrone is pleased with the amount of responsibility entrusted to him by Bill Pilkerton, Director of League Industries. He has worked hard to become a competent and confident driver and looks forward to continuing his career. Together, we are ablto grow professionally and thrive within our communities of fellow athletes, friends, and co-workers.

Together,we are able

As a 2021 recipient of the James W. Rouse Excellence in Diversity Award from the Chesapeake Human Resources Association and a 2022 & 2023 Baltimore Sun Top Workplace, The League is proud to serve Baltimore as an that values collaboration, diversity, and advancement. With a commitment to open and fair communication, The League values the expertise, backgrounds, and opinions of our employees by providing ample opportunities for constructive feedback and professional growth. In addition to a competitive salary, benefits, and access to The League’s Wellness Center, staff members are shown appreciation from the Employee Culture Committee with quarterly events and fun activities sprinkled throughout the year.

#employerofchoice

After the pandemic, it was extremely important to me and my fellow Employee Culture Committee members to create engaging opportunities for our staff to connect, let loose, and feel appreciated. The staff at The League work hard each day to make an impact on the participants. I am proud to be a part of spoiling the staff for their efforts!

-Robyn Dammers, Employee Culture Committee Chair (2021-2023)

I like spending time with the people that work as hard as I do at fun events.

-Tyrone, League Industries Driver

OUR LEAGUE STORY: BEHAVIOR SUPPORT SERVICES

Having worked together for a little over a year, Martha and Zachary share a bond strengthened by communication and trust. Although Zach is extremely limited in his verbal communication, they have both become observant, attentive, and empathetic partners during their daily adventures at The League. Martha’s approach to connecting with Zach has always been to meet him where he is, to stimulate responses and to build upon the excellent foundation of support provided by his parents and beloved staff members. Martha pays close attention to Zach’s body language, demeanor, facial expressions, and sounds so that she may identify obstacles and guide him to a happy, healthy experience using a Communication Board of “I want” and “I feel” choices.

Every day, the pair will prepare for a busy schedule of activities with their peers in the community. Often, they will read together to boost Zach’s confidence with vocabulary and pronunciation. Because Zach enjoys swimming, Martha will budget time one morning of the week for him to get some laps in at the Malcolm Hecht Therapeutic Pool before they head out with their group to volunteer with organizations such as Meals on Wheels, Moveable Feast, or Helping Up Mission. One thing that Martha knows about Zach is that he does very well with routine and if he has done something several times, he requires very little prompting.

Together, we are able

The repetition and modeling of positive, appropriate behaviors is helping Zach become an enthusiastic and interactive version of himself that no one at The League has seen before. His progress is a testament to Martha’s patience and determination to aid Zach in discovering his voice, regardless of her being told that he was nonverbal.Together, we are ableto overcome barriers and thrive, one small step at a time.

MY LEAGUE STORY:

MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS DAY

In 1997, Kat’s life changed in a major way. She was working as a Unit Secretary for Good Samaritan Hospital and anticipating the arrival of her grandson. Sharp pains in her ears, vanishing eyesight, and a strange heat in her left leg collectively sent her to the hospital as a patient for nearly a month. At 40 years old, Kat received her diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis and has since dealt with loss, but also experienced significant gains.

Despite challenges with vision, hearing, and mobility, she was determined to keep moving and quite literally “step over the pity” that threatened her entire outlook on life. Kat’s sisters urged her to join an MS support group and she is so grateful that after 2 years, she finally did.

Kat is very fortunate to have the love and support of her mother, 3 sisters, brother, 2 daughters, and 6 grandsons. They are all extremely helpful with her vision and hearing impairments, but she knows that they can never fully understand the complexity of living with MS - that’s where Kat’s second family comes in. For more than 20 years, Kat has built relationships with people with MS in various support groups, learning from them, growing with them, and inspiring them with her resiliency and positivity.

As long as I can get around, I will be a part of the program! It picked me up and I kept moving!

During the pandemic, virtual group sessions were difficult because of Kat’s limited vision. She focused a lot on her family but is now thrilled to enjoy in-person connection again with her friends in the MS Day Program. Every Wednesday, Kat joins the men and women at Orchard Tree Lane for classes including conversation, art, and cognitive strategies. Kat is an inspiration to everyone dealing with MS. Hanging proudly in the hall is her “MS - THIS MEANS WAR” masterpiece to remind her and the other members of the program that they can battle the pain in unison. Together, we are abl to grow from the encouragement received by others and thrive with the outreach of people in similar situations.

MY LEAGUE STORY: PHILIP WETZLER

Phil Wetzler has been committed to The League since he was eight years old. The decades he has spent volunteering with The League are filled with an immeasurable sense of joy and pride knowing that he has made a difference in the lives of children and adults with disabilities. He was first introduced to the organization by his parents and grandparents who instilled a sense of acceptance and compassion in Phil that he and his late wife Marni passed down to their two sons and seven grandsons. Of great significance to Phil are the good health of his family, the safety of this country, and the success of The League for People with Disabilities under the outstanding leadership of President & CEO, David A. Greenberg.

After graduating from Duke University in 1959 with his Bachelor of Arts degree in Education and History, Phil enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps where he learned many valuable life lessons. His life has always been influenced and impacted in a positive way by aquatics. For eight years, Phil was the Head Coach for the Baltimore Special Olympics Swim Team. In 2007, he served as a coach for the Special Olympics Swim Team USA at the World Games in China and again in 2011 in Greece.

Phil’s admirable passion for helping others was a natural fit at The League’s heated Malcolm Hecht Therapeutic Pool where he taught swimming, water safety, and aqua aerobics for fifteen years alongside Judy Maberry. Working strictly on a volunteer basis, Phil has helped countless men, women, and children learn to swim and improve their health at The League; he served on the Board of Directors for ten years and has built many meaningful, long-term relationships with the employees and participants. Phil continues to support The League through annual giving and by attending various fundraising events.ther, we to able to help others thrive when we share our time, talents, commitments, and resources.

I am so thankful for the opportunities that I have had volunteering for The League. I’ve learned so much! So many challenges; so many smiles! Such an inspiration!

-Philip Wetzler

OUR LEAGUE STORY:

On April 26th, 15 volunteers from BGE joined Adult Medical Day participants in some fun and “dirty” Earth Day activities to beautify the building and outdoor garden space. Through the leadership of current Board of Directors Member, Carol Dodson, the volunteers helped adults with disabilities create tissue paper globes, plant colorful annuals in recyclable containers, and prepare a chocolatey afternoon snack!

Participants spent the morning chatting with the volunteers and connecting over similar interests. As they modge-podged Earth-like spheres and dug their hands into potting soil, they bonded over topics of music, art, food, and general hobbies. Laughter, meaningful conversation, and creativity filled the Multi-Purpose Room, even spilling out into the courtyard as freshly planted flowers were placed on tree branches.

For over two centuries, BGE has served the community with a commitment to safety, excellence, innovation, integrity, diversity, and inclusion. Because of BGE’s philanthropy and volunteerism, The League has been able to thrive and serve our participants and neighbors with a network of support and opportunity. BGE’s continuous sponsorship of The League’s annual event and participation in past Art Days have helped lift up the populations that need the most support. The League is grateful for the relationship with such a longstanding pillar of the Baltimore community. to grow and build an inclusive, sustainable environment wherein everyone will thrive.
