Lifting Up Westchester provides life-changing support to people who have lost their housing or are struggling to meet other basic needs. We work together with those we serve to build a more secure future for them and their families.

We are united by one, bold and unwavering belief: that stable housing is the foundation on which human wellbeing and advancement is built. When people have a secure, affordable home, they can focus on advancing their education, health, and employment. We help individuals find that home and build on that foundation to achieve greater self-sufficiency. When we support others in living healthier and more productive lives, our entire community benefits.

2022 DONOR IMPACT REPORT

The Wiggins Legacy Society

While Lifting Up Westchester supporters are from different backgrounds and span many generations, there is one belief we all have in common: a commitment to strengthening our community for everyone by providing lifelines to lasting change.

The Wiggins Legacy Society recognizes those who work towards this goal through planned or sustaining gifts to Lifting Up Westchester. We invite you to contact us if you need additional information, have any questions or want to share your plans: Lauren Candela-Katz at 941-437-9737 or lcandela-katz@liftingupwestchester.org.

Members will receive a certificate of membership, invitation to an annual gathering and special update, and opportunity for recognition.

The Wiggins Legacy Society is named in memory of Barbara and Charles Wiggins who were active members of Grace Church and the White Plains Community as well as avid supporters of Lifting Up Westchester. Their legacy is one of deep love for humankind and the hope that together we can make the world a better place for everyone.

To Our LUW Community,

As we reflect on 2022 it is worth highlighting some of the accomplishments we achieved together and the challenges that we continue to face heading into 2023:

Accomplishments:

• 2,526 people received support to move their lives forward, including housing placements, employment opportunities, and degrees earned.

• 138,181 meals were provided to help reduce hunger.

• Completion of a year long strategic planning process laying the groundwork for two game-changing initiatives — Community Central and Job Central.

• Customized client data system to track services provided and outcomes across all LUW programs as well as identify needs, trends, and areas for improvement.

Challenges:

• Hiring and retaining qualified employees — most employers are struggling to find and retain talent in their organizations. The intensity of our work and the compensation and benefit levels we are able to offer heighten these struggles for LUW. We are working hard to invest in staff compensation but also training, professional development, and other benefits to make LUW an attractive place to work.

• Rising costs — costs for most of the goods and services we need to execute our mission (food, benefit costs, office supplies, utilities, property and liability insurance, etc.) have increased without corresponding increases in our funding.

• Funding gaps and the challenge of raising funds in the year in which they are being spent make it difficult to make long-term program investments with confidence.

Funding gaps occur when our funders limit the expenses they will cover. This creates a gap in revenue required to fully operate the program. That gap is most often felt in CORE mission expenses which are necessary, vital, and integral to effectively operate ALL programs. Investing in nonprofit CORE and Fundraising infrastructure is savvy, prudent, and absolutely necessary. See our breakdown on pages 6 and 7. The growth and effectiveness of our mission depends on having a solid core at the center of Lifting Up Westchester.

To help address these challenges over the long-term, LUW launched The Wiggins Legacy Society in 2022 to help grow the resources we need to build stronger communities for future generations.

Your belief in Lifting Up Westchester carried the day in 2022 and for that we are forever grateful.

Sincerely,

1

You provided comprehensive support to people in crisis by:

• Providing emergency shelter, food, and support to keep people safe.

• Facilitating employment readiness and securing job opportunities to increase and sustain income.

• Finding safe and affordable homes of all types and providing ongoing support to maintain the stability of that housing.

• Centralizing opportunities to access community and resources for personalized support.

• Offering education and mentoring services to youth who are homeless or in unstable housing so they can achieve success.

You provided CORE mission support because you understand that without strong core support, we could not fulfill our mission:

• Passionate People: the progressive human resources support to recruit, train, and retain the best staff and dynamically manage wonderful volunteers and in-kind resources.

• Financial Oversight and Risk Management: strong and strategic fiscal management and insurance are essential to our bottom line and the integrity of Lifting Up Westchester.

• Communication Resources: the technology and tools to execute our work, inform, and engage community partners and people in need of services.

• Resource Providers: the fundraising staff that raise resources to cover funding gaps and build organizational capacity.
