Grat-i-tude: thanks: a feeling of being thankful to somebody for doing something. -
This definition is exemplary of the year at Casa Esperanza. We were fortunate enough to celebrate our 20th year at our Annual Casa Esperanza Art for HOPE Auction. We had many friends of Casa join us in celebration and thanks for all of the years of support in helping families facing cancer. It was a wonderful event with 173 artists and +/- 500 guests in attendance, and we were able to raise $25,000 for lodging and assistance for cancer and other critical medical needs clients. A big thank you to Anthony Masciotra, who stayed on as president of the BOD an extra six months this year while I was busy with a newborn baby. I am stepping into very big shoes and look forward to chairing this amazing cause with the help of the Board of Directors. Following the economy and other organizations, Casa Esperanza has been looking into our decreasing occupancy levels and declining budget, and has been working on ways to make our donor dollars go as far as possible for the cause. In addition to our annual financial audit completed by Clifton/Larson/Allen (for which we received high marks!), the board
Lia Armstrong, Chair, 2012 Board of Directors
hired John Ross as a third party consultant to come in and evaluate the organizational structure, policies and strategy to help ensure the strength of our future. With his help we have created a strategic plan for the next 6, 12, and 24 months. John has spent many hours with the staff and board helping to give a non-biased opinion in cutting costs and how to do more with less and he has reminded us that our mission is simple but very important, for that we are grateful. We are grateful that we were able to serve 1635 families this year and averaged occupancy of 65%. The families are why the staff and board are so proud to be affiliated with Casa. We are also very fortunate that we have so many wonderful organizations and individual volunteers to serve meals, help repair the house, and help spread the word of the organization. If you have not toured the house we welcome you to drop by for a tour. As always, we depend heavily on our Give Hope a Ride program to fund the house, and we have a lot of gratitude for Macy’s Towing and Macy FitsEmons (the auctioneer) for all of the years of service they have given to Casa and wish them
well in their future endeavors. We have now partnered with Danlar Towing to help pick up vehicles from our very generous donors and bring them to the lot for auction. We are also excited Lia Armstrong to report that we have expanded our consignment program welcoming other non-profits to let us help them sell their donated vehicles. Please help to continue to spread the word to both donors and buyers about our Give Hope a Ride Program. Lee Black, one of our Advisory Board members, is helping Casa to become more familiar with Planned Giving also known as “deferred” giving which allows a donor to leave a lasting legacy to Casa Esperanza while helping to reduce your taxable estate. We give thanks to Lee and his wife Sandy for setting up our first Gift Annuity. Although the economy has changed and everyone has learned “to do more with less," we are grateful that we can still touch so many lives on a daily basis. Cancer doesn’t quit because Wall Street is down, and we are more committed than ever to reach out our arms and helping hands to those in need. Thank you for all of your support, and if you would like to volunteer or learn how you can be more involved in this wonderful cause, please call or email info@casaesperanzanm.org.

~Our House~
It is my guess that none of you live in an 18,000 sq. foot house. Well, most of you anyway. But our families at Casa Esperanza do – 28 families on any given night. And just as you must shop for your families housing needs, so must we - times 28! Can you possibly imagine how many paper products we go through in a month? It’s an incredible amount. Or, can you figure out how many pounds of fresh and canned food we purchase each month so that families who come with nothing may have an opportunity for a good meal? Believe me, it’s a lot! Then, of course, there’s the electricity it takes to keep each individual room at a comfortable temperature, which differs from family to family. There’s always the gas and water bills, the laundry bills, the facility maintenance bills, etc., etc., etc. It seems incessant! And of course, these bills continue to creep up (sometimes, they actually leap) - just as yours do. It takes more than $6000 a year to operate each of our guest rooms. In our twenty years of operation, I am proud to say that we have never failed to meet the needs of our families in terms of creature comforts and necessities. But in 2012, it got much harder to do. This year, we are feeling the effects from the 2008 Great Recession as never before. Donations and funding from grants are way down while the economic needs of our
families are way up! Through limited designated donations from caring donors, we struggle to meet needs for food, for gasoline, for room rent. So, it is my plea to you, dear reader, to dig a little deeper to support our efforts in meeting these needs. I will be blunt here – we badly need your continued donations!
~Changes~
Jessica Clauson, our former Finance Director, left in August to begin her CPA journey at Atkinson & Co. Jessica was an outstanding employee for five years, and she is greatly missed. However, in order to meet budget shortfalls, we did not rehire her position. Instead, we doubled the workload of our current Finance Director, Desiree McBrayer, who had been responsible for payroll and human resources. Now, she does it all – and very well, I might add. And on November 30, we will say goodbye to Maryle Barber, an amazing Development Director at Casa Esperanza for fourteen years. It will be very difficult to see her go, but her position will also be eliminated to meet budget constraints. Her heavy workload will be distributed among several of us, and believe me, there is not a day that goes by that I will not miss her! Our very best wishes go with both Jessica and Maryle.

A Private Place for Family
Patty Virgen, Family Care Team Director
ix year old Lee Richway Damon resides in Window Rock, Arizona with his father, Timothy and his 3 year old brother, Wyatt. Lee and his family have been traveling to Albuquerque on a regular basis since 2010, because in September of that year, Lee, then just three years old, was diagnosed with lymphocytic (lymphoblastic) leukemia. Before being diagnosed, Lee enjoyed the outdoors - running around and exploring just like any other three year old. He began fighting a cough and complaining of legs aches, so Lee was taken to doctors in Arizona, where his parents were told that he presented asthma symptoms. Lee’s cough got worse, and one day his father was horrified to notice that Lee had spit up blood. Lee was taken to the hospital in Fort Defiance, where doctors thought stomach ulcers might be the culprit. Not being satisfied with either
explanation, Lee’s parents flew him to Albuquerque, where he was admitted to UNMH. After running multiple tests, doctors determined that Lee had Leukemia. At that point the family was informed that Lee would need to start chemotherapy, right away, in Albuquerque. Since Casa Esperanza is the only local temporary lodging provider approved to accept Arizona Access, the Damon family came to stay with us. Timothy shared that they have been fortunate having a place to stay without having to worry about insurance coverage. He also shared that they enjoy having their privacy at Casa Esperanza, as well as the fact the family can remain together during Lee’s ordeal. Family support has been a tremendous help in coping with Lee’s long journey, and the Damon’s consider the Casa staff to be their friends and part of this overall support.
Thanksgiving Gifts Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching. What a wonderful season. The beautiful colors of autumn grace our lives. Soon we will prepare for gatherings with family and friends. The aroma of lovingly prepared Thanksgiving dinner will be tantalizing. When our family gathers we will be mindful of the great service being provided by Casa Esperanza, as we have seen first-hand. As Thanksgiving nears, folks pause to reflect on the good things in their lives. Even in difficult times, whether physical or financial, Americans have so much to be thankful for. As an example, Casa Esperanza staff was able to assist 1,635 families this year. These individuals came to Albuquerque seeking medical treatment from across New Mexico as well as Arizona and Colorado. Your generosity helped make this possible. This Thanksgiving Casa Esperanza needs your help more than ever. Please consider a year-end cash contribution in any amount or perhaps a gift of stocks. The stock market has been good to many this year. Most believe that the capital gains tax rate will go up in 2013. A year-end gift of your appreciated
Lee is completing his third year of treatment, and while it is no longer as intense as it used to be, he still receives chemo infusions once a month at UNM and continues with his chemo medications at home. Lee currently attends first grade and enjoys drawing and “journal time” at school. Lee will continue with his current treatment until September 2013. His prognosis is bright, and his doctors think he may not require radiation treatment. In the meantime, Casa will continue to serve Lee’s family with not only lodging and other resources, but with warmth and comfort as well.
Lee & Timothy Damon
- Lee Black, Advisory Board Member
stock will provide you with a nice tax deduction and avoid the increased capital gains tax. Lastly, would you consider at least three additional ways you can help those seeking assistance from Casa Esperanza going forward? First, and possibly the easiest method of gifting, is to include Casa Esperanza in your will. Casa can assist you with having a statement added to your will (called a codicil). Another great gifting method is to include Casa as a beneficiary of a portion of your life insurance policy. Perhaps you would welcome an increase in your annual income at the same time you help meet future needs of Casa Esperanza. If you would like to have further explanation of any of the gifting methods, please call Eileen Cook at Casa Esperanza today at 505-277-9880. May this Thanksgiving be the best you have ever experienced. As a donor to Casa you have helped others have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Thank you for your generosity.

Human Kindness is Overflowing - Debbie Trujillo, Community Outreach & Volunteer Coordinator
kindness on the faces of the Albuquerque Chapter of Oncology Nurses when they deliver dinner, toiletries and household goods for the families at Casa, as well as in the faces of the Lovely Ladies who bring us the handmade Hug-Li dolls to bestow on each and every one – no matter what their age!

Having such a small staff, we rely on our volunteers to make Casa
Christian School, Valley High School, Highland High School Key Club, students from Phi Sigma Honors Fraternity and Omega Phi from UNM, and employees from Kohl’s and The Gap Inc. also give their time to serve and contribute to Casa. For the last ten years and more, Casa has hosted United Methodist Church Volunteers in Mission (VIM) groups from Arizona, Colorado, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Texas. This year, groups came to us from Shawnee, Oklahoma, Bartlesville, Oklahoma and Longmont, Colorado. They tackled projects like tile work, handicap fixtures for bathtubs, landscaping, painting, replacing toilets, and much, much more. We have just learned that Casa has been chosen as the Charity of the Quarter by the Oklahoma Methodist Annual Conference Volunteers in Mission (VIM) for the coming year, so we expect to host many more VIM groups. Mike Gallegos, our Facilities Manager, coordinates volunteers to do yard work, special projects such as painting, carpet cleaning, and working
at our car lot for the Give Hope a Ride auto donation program. Amazingly, we had one group, the Passion Missions, come all the way from Austin Texas do to whatever was needed. Casa always needs individuals for office work, for cleaning or donating pots and pans, dishes, toiletries, wigs and a number of other needed items. There are so many groups and individuals who have not been mentioned, but we are deeply appreciative for all the big and small things that every group or individual has done for Casa Esperanza. We simply could not afford to keep this house in its top-notch condition or present such wonderful meals to our families if it wasn't for the work of all of the wonderful folks who volunteer their time and talent. It takes a special kind of person to volunteer, and we at Casa Esperanza give each of you a deep, heart-felt thank you for all your support!

Moving in a New Direction with GHAR & Chrisann Gray, Director, Give Hope a Ride
With the economic turmoil our world is facing, with the government slashing funding and donations drying up, life has become a challenge at Casa Esperanza. Non-profits aren't immune to economic realities. With less funding coming in the door, looking at long term sustainability and creating a leaner organization has led to many changes over this last year. King Whitney Jr. said “Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.� There is a tendency with our current economic conditions to think we are doomed, but here at Casa Esperanza's Give Hope a Ride Program, we aim to make this our best year ever. The key to our sustainability is adaptability. Tough times occasionally offer insight into how we can become stronger and emerge healthier.
Looking to create new operational support relationships and become more efficient, The Give Hope a Ride Program has partnered with a new towing company, Danlar Towing, who has an internal culture that believes in giving back to the community, and they were anxious to begin working with Casa Esperanza. They jumped right in and began towing for us in July and they have displayed a real sense of flexibility and teamwork as we build our new partnership. Many thanks to the owners and staff at Danlar Towing for a great job. After contracting with a new towing company, the Give Hope a Ride Program was unexpectedly left without an auctioneer. So continuing with our new innovative approach to generate additional revenue, we are hiring an auctioneer for auction day only and we will soon make a decision on the best auctioneer for our program. Change always comes bearing gifts, according to Price Pritchett. So staying focused on strategies that will develop our program even further, we hired Jesus Coronado-Gonzales as our lot administrator and Claudia Crocker as our administrative assistant. Jesus came to Albuquerque at 3 months old and was raised here. Jesus and his girlfriend have been together for 10 years and have two children, Alex, 7 and Arianna,
Claudia Crocker and Jesus Coronado-Gonzales
2. Jesus dreams of one day owning an auto body shop, but loves his job with Casa Esperanza. Using his entrepreneurial spirit, Jesus is building many new relationships and implementing new systems that provide the best service for our donors and will promote increased auction sales and revenue. Claudia grew up in Oklahoma and moved a few times before landing in New Mexico in 1990. She and her boyfriend Don have been together for eleven years. She has two grown children and four step-children and a total of eight grandchildren, ranging in age from 4 months to 16 years old, including a set of twin boys. Claudia and Don have a sailboat in San Diego and like to spend as much time sailing as possible. Claudia worked in health care for most of the last 20 years, and she loves her work with the GHAR Program. I would also like to share how inspired and grateful I am at all the individuals and organizations that donate their autos, come and purchase cars at the auction, volunteer their precious time and devoted service to Casa Esperanza and the GHAR Program. You are appreciated and needed very much - thank you. Alfred Tennyson said, "Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering it will be happier'..." I have only highlighted a few of the changes that are moving the Give Hope a Ride Program in the right direction and leading us toward greater success.

Leaving a Legacy with Life Insurance For many friends of Casa Esperanza, the desire to support the work financially is a difficult decision in these economic times. A great way to achieve your gifting goal is to add Casa Esperanza Foundation as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy. A quick call to your insurance company will enable you to receive a Change of Beneficiary form. You have the option of designating a percentage of your policy to benefit Casa. This is an easy way to achieve your goal of supporting the work of Casa. In some cases, individuals may have multiple insurance policies. If this is your situation you could donate the entire paid up Whole Life Insurance policy (name Casa Esperanza Foundation as the policy owner) and receive a charitable tax deduction for the cash value of the policy. If you are interested in considering a donation of a Life Insurance policy or designating Casa as a beneficiary of a portion of a policy, please contact Eileen Cook, Casa Esperanza Foundation Executive Director, for further information at 505-277-9880.

LEAVE A LOVING LEGACY Casa Esperanza announces the formation of the Leave a (Loving) Legacy (LLL) Society.
