A LETTER FROM LEADERSHIP Dear Friends, Last year, United Way of New York City (UWNYC) set out to understand what it takes for New Yorkers to become self-sufficient, and we found the City to be in a precarious spot. Although it is considered one of the richest cities in the world, one in three people living here can’t afford the basics—housing, food, childcare, transportation, taxes, and healthcare. Knowing that it is not okay for families to have to choose between rent, food, electricity, and childcare, we are commited to helping New Yorkers in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty make meaningful and measurable progress toward the pivotal milestone of self-sufficiency. This year, we are excited to share with you the measurable impact we have been making toward our goal. Through the coordination and execution of mutually reinforcing strategies and programs, we are helping children excel at school and providing their parents, caregivers, and educators with the resources needed to build strong families and communities. As you browse through this report, you will see the impact we have made together: children beginning to read on grade-level, parents getting empowered to become financially stable, and principals and teachers gaining access to instructional leadership and resources to elevate our children’s education. You will meet Amy, Amaya, Chris, and Nina, those who have been impacted by UWNYC’s work. You will learn that we have taken the next step in helping our most-vulnerable neighbors reach self-sufficiency…there is still much more to be done. We are so grateful for the impact you are making. We invite you to join us in our efforts moving forward—to guide New York City families along the path to self-sufficiency. Together, we make New York City strong.

OUR THEORY OF CHANGE
OUR THEORY OF CHANGE: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHILDREN AND PARENTS TOGETHER United Way of New York City (UWNYC) is committed to helping New Yorkers in neighborhoods of concentrated poverty make meaningful and measurable progress toward the pivotal milestone of self-sufficiency—the ability to cover basic needs without public or private assistance. To strategically reach that milestone, we are taking a “two-generation” approach. We’re focusing on children’s educations at the same time as their parents’ financial stability. By helping them simultaneously, our impact aims to be powerful and sustainable for generations to come. Because a strong education is the building block for success, we focus our work on ReadNYC—our signature program that meets the key goals of healthy births, early development, and reading proficiently by third grade. ReadNYC fortifies families, schools, and communities through one-on-one tutoring, expanded-day programs, summer literacy, parent engagement, professional development, and more. The program, alongside our EducateNYC, FeedNYC, BenefitsAccessNYC, and in-development WorkNYC programs, is giving families the foundation to stand on their own two feet and become self-sufficient.

OUR APPROACH IN ACTION To understand our approach in action, we would like to introduce you to Deysi and her family—her husband Luis and her two boys, Luis Angel and Manuel. Deysi emigrated from Mexico as a child. And with English as her second language, she struggled in school. Now, as mom to Luis Angel and Manuel, she wants to do everything she can to create a better life for her family. So they joined our ReadNYC program in the South Bronx, where the supports we are offering them are setting them on the path to self-sufficiency. ReadNYC’s mutually reinforcing supports, which are provided in an aligned way by over a dozen community–based organiztions (CBO), are empowering Deysi, Luis, Luis Angel and Manuel to succeed in a way that no other program in our City has.
READ BY THIRD GRADE: Luis Angel, 3rd Grader, P.S. 49 •• T o help improve Luis Angel’s reading, Deysi enrolled him in ReadNYC’s Once Upon a Summer program—a seven-week literacy and arts camp that helps prevent summer learning loss, and prepare children for the academic year. •• D eysi joined the Mott Haven Parent Collective—a group of ReadNYC parents who share strategies and best practices around Common Core, as well as ways to help their children with reading and academic success. •• T eachers and principals at Luis Angel’s school received professional development training including one-on-one leadership coaching, peer learning, and equity leadership retreats to empower culturally relevant teaching—motivating students by allowing them to see themselves in the curriculum. •• T hroughout the school year Luis Angel and the other students at P.S. 49 received additional supports including free dental screenings and cleanings via a mobile dental van, in-classroom physical activity curriculum to increase exercise and promote health, and one-on-one tutoring to help improve literacy skills.
HEALTHY BIRTH AND EARLY DEVELOPMENT: Manuel, 3 years old •• R eadNYC taught Deysi how critical reading on grade-level was, sharing that children who don’t read on grade-level are 74% more likely to drop out of high school—and for low-income children, more likely to remain in poverty. •• D eysi wanted to start Manuel reading, even before he started school. ReadNYC signed him up for Imagination Library, so he would receive a new, free book each month. These books built his at-home library while exposing him to new words and stories.
FOOD ACCESS, STABLE HOUSING, AND BENEFITS •• D eysi’s family was struggling financially, and was in danger of losing their apartment. •• R eadNYC provided her family with emergency funds that prevented homelessness and helped stabilize the household.
BECOME JOB READY: Deysi and Luis •• D eysi’s husband, who was not proficient in English, enrolled in English as a Second Language classes— preparing him for future employment. •• D eysi met with a ReadNYC social work intern who conducted a needs assessment to better assist the family and helped Deysi build her resume.
It takes all of these programs and supports—working together—to positively impact a child and drive their family toward self-sufficiency. We’re excited to share that because of Deysi’s dedication to her family, alongside your investment in ReadNYC and UWNYC’s work, we are seeing tremendous results. Deysi is now employed by P.S. 49 as an Expanded-Day Community Educator, empowering other families to strive for self-sufficiency and providing them with the tools necessary to succeed. Congratulations, Deysi!

WHAT WE DO AND HOW WE DO IT
WE ARE UNITED WAY OF NEW YORK CITY New York City is made up of more than 8.4 million people. This is the city of possibility—the Big Apple—where dreams are made. But for our 2.7 million neighbors who can’t cover the basics that’s not the case. They struggle with impossible decisions everyday— food or rent, heat or healthcare. This is not okay. For nearly 80 years, United Way of New York City has been a voice for our most-vulnerable neighbors. From our unique position at the intersection of business, government, and nonprofits, we are poised to bring our City’s changemakers to the table to create and deliver on aligned, collective strategies that will move our fellow New Yorkers along the path to self-sufficiency—the ability to cover the basics without need for public or private assistance.

2016 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY
ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS (ELA) RESULTS FOR MOTT HAVEN READNYC SCHOOLS Across our six ReadNYC schools in Mott Haven, in the South Bronx, we saw a 12.7% increase in the number of students testing proficiently on the ELA exams* in the 2015–2016 school year—compared to a 10.7% increase across NYC citywide.
LIVES CHANGED Imagine raising your child in a neighborhood where 90% of children can’t read on grade-level. Consider the pressure a parent must face as their child enters school. The median houshold income in your neighborhood is below the poverty line. Is your ambition for your child’s success enough in a neighborhood so under-resourced? This is real-life for Amy. She lives in Mott Haven, located in the poorest congressional district in the country. Amy does everything she can to ensure her children succeed. She utilizes every resource she can get her hands on. United Way of New York City’s ReadNYC program to improve grade-level reading by third grade is one of those resources. Last year, Amy enrolled her daughter in ReadNYC’s Once Upon a Summer program, a 7-week reading intensive to fight summer slide. “I wasn’t sure if putting her in an educational setting throughout the summer would be too much for her since she’s in school year-round,” says Amy. As a result: “She is reading a grade-level above her grade. United Way of New York City’s program has been instrumental in her success thus far.” Amy’s daughter now participates in ReadNYC’s Expanded-Day Learning program—it pairs schools with community partners to fill curriculum gaps and offer personalized learning, mentoring, sports, arts, and service learning during a seamless extended day.

*In 2016, the NY State Education Department changed the testing experience and manner of the assessments for the ELA exam.

LIVES CHANGED Kathleen Shamwell is the Community School Director at P.S. 15 in the East Village—one of UWNYC’s community schools, receiving funding for the AIDP initiative. As part of the initiative, each of UWNYC’s 45 AIDP Community Schools was assigned a UWNYC Portfolio Manager who worked with the school to support work plan development, attendance assessment and coaching, and to strengthen communications. In partnership with the porfolio manager, P.S. 15 looked to strengthen relationships between parents and caregivers, and school staff. Kathleen, along with school principal Irene Sanchez, created “Coffee and Conversations.” This monthly meeting has provided parents the opportunity to ask questions, offer valuable feedback, and discuss a variety of topics pertaining to their children, the school, and the local community. Topics have ranged from school safety and dismissal policies, to academic instruction, expanded-learning programs, and parent workshop opportunities. Conversations even went over the school’s new website to ensure a userfriendly experience. “Coffee and Conversations” has been an amazing program so far with about 20 parents attending each session.

“Thanks to the support we received from United Way of New York City, we learned about opportunities to improve our parent engagement in an effort to reduce chronic absenteeism,” said Shamwell. “We now have an open line of communication to the parents—getting them more involved with their children, other students, and the community to make sure our at-risk students get and stay on track to succeed.”

LIVES CHANGED Brooklyn resident, Chris, was suffering from kidney disease. Going for dialysis treatment three days a week, he was unable to work, and his savings quickly depleted. He found comfort in his local church, and it was there that he learned about United Way of New York City’s FeedNYC program. Holy Innocents is one of the local pantries funded by UWNYC’s FeedNYC program—and the place that Chris received help when he needed it most. This pantry has been receiving food and operations support from UWNYC for nearly a decade. And UWNYC regularly leads food safety and nutritional hands-on cooking workshops for staff and volunteers from the pantry on ways to best serve their clients. Living just a few streets away, Chris went to the pantry every other week to receive food support. “This pantry is one of the best in Brooklyn,” said Chris. “They are clean, orderly, and the people are so nice.” Realizing the importance of healthy, fresh foods, UWNYC purchased a refrigerator for the pantry; and now, nearly half of the funding UWNYC provides Holy Innocents is spent on fresh produce. Chris—like many other pantry patrons—was able to take home fresh, nutritious fruits and vegetables that fueled and helped him remain strong as he battled his illness.
13
Thankfully, Chris was granted a kidney transplant. He no longer needs dialysis and is living a healthy life. Back on his feet and once again self-sufficient, Chris is proud to say he can give back to others now. “I used to go to Holy Innocents to get food; now I go to volunteer and give food.”

LIVES CHANGED Daniel is a real estate attorney who owns his own firm in Manhattan. Committed to giving back to his community, he had been an avid volunteer. But he was searching for a deeper connection with nonprofits who share his passion to serve the homeless. In 2012, Daniel was accepted into United Way of New York City’s (UWNYC) BoardServeNYC program—a training that helps connect talented individuals with NYC nonprofits to share their skills and expertise as board members. Shortly after completing the training, Daniel joined the board of directors at an organization that coordinates the health and social service needs of homeless people in NYC. Having a close family member who struggled with homelessness most of his adult life, Daniel knew this was the perfect organization to dedicate his service. Daniel has been on the board for five years now, helping the organization raise necessary funds and awareness and working on multiple committees including finance, policy, and nominations and governance.

News Corp, a new UWNYC corporate partner, committed $325,000 to fund staffing a Community School Director (CSD) at our six ReadNYC schools in Mott Haven.

Additionally, News Corp will help ReadNYC build libraries in 23 first-grade classrooms at our partner schools by providing 55,000 books over the next five years.

Growing Healthy Readers Conference Builds Collaboration
At our 2016 Growing Healthy Readers Conference, with our partners at Reach Out and Read of Greater New York and Colgate “Bright Smiles, Bright Futures,” we brought crosssector partners together to discuss how we can lock arms and work collaboratively to better support our City’s young readers and get them reading on grade-level. Conference-goers heard from panelists on how to cultivate corporate-philanthropic partnerships to nurture healthy readers, how doctors and parents can work together to develop children’s love of reading, and how to build a culture of literacy in the home and your community.
