Providing Help, Creating Hope Targeting the need for lasting impact
At Human Services Programs of Carroll County, we rely on the support from United Way to provide critical services that help our clients move out of poverty and toward self-sufficiency. Simply put, without this funding, these programs would be unable to survive and thrive the way they do now. Families would be without basic needs, essential utilities, a home and a plan for moving forward. —HUMAN SERVICES PROGRAMS OF CARROLL COUNTY

United Way of Central Maryland l 2009-2010 Annual Report l 1
Introduction
A
t the end of our last fiscal year (June 2010), United Way of Central Maryland (UWCM) faced unprecedented challenges. Amid early optimism that The Great Recession was finally over, thousands of our fellow residents in the region continued to suffer. Declining foundation funding and government spending threatened the ability of health and human-service agencies to address the basic needs of the poor, the unemployed and those with special needs. At the same time, UWCM had already begun to explore how we could improve what we do best: connect people in need with people who want to help. We were well on the way toward addressing donors’ new expectations and directing their philanthropy to serve basic needs. Recognizing that many of the people who rely on us would be the last to benefit from any economic recovery, we could not wait. While this annual report highlights accomplishments from last year, it also reflects our renewed focus (see page 12). As human needs and the resources to meet them change, UWCM will become more adept at aligning solutions that work—to solve immediate problems and to help people build self-sufficiency over time. We must not lose sight of this, our classic mission, but we will execute it more efficiently, creating hope as well as providing help.
2 l 2009-2010 Annual Report l United Way of Central Maryland
A Message from United Way Leadership Extraordinary times require extraordinary action. At the height of the recession this meant doing more with less, and directing our activities to achieve the greatest human outcomes. While United Way continued to fund basic needs within the spectrum of education, income and health, circumstances demanded a more immediate focus on fundamentals such as access to food, shelter and healthcare. The range of community problems was vast—from foreclosure and homelessness, to fears of H1N1, to loss of income and domestic abuse. To address these concerns in the most expeditious way, UWCM partnered with governments, corporations and individuals to secure new sources of funding. We also looked ahead—leveraging our ability to mobilize the community, making better use of the tools at our disposal, and doing our job smarter and more efficiently. Some examples include: •
UWCM was instrumental in evaluating and distributing more than $8.5 million in federal funds to support Baltimore City’s The Journey Home, a 10-year plan to end homelessness.
•
Thanks in part to our decade-long effort to make 2-1-1 a permanent system in Maryland, in May 2010 it became a reality. This 24-hour call center links people in need to vital service information and gives UWCM real-time data about the issues that are most critical in our region.
•
Our newly acquired Community Issues Management (CIM) system pinpointed pockets of poverty and other problems—as well as the resources to address them. CIM enables us to present donors, funders and partners with objective information that effectively frames important issues and promotes collaborative decision-making.
•
In 2010 UWCM became the statewide coordinator for Maryland’s Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). This allowed us to make better use of regional data about homelessness, identify assets and gaps in service, and engage with partners at all levels to secure critical resources during the height of the recession.
An equally important development at UWCM last year was our candid selfassessment of how we can best serve as a philanthropic partner and community mobilizer. This far-reaching process resulted in a tighter strategic direction—focused on basic needs and fundraising—that will enable us to make resources go further to support those who are most vulnerable. We welcome 2011 and the years ahead, confident that our re-focused direction will create a lasting impact by improving the lives of central Marylanders, providing help for today and hope for tomorrow.

Understanding the Community Need How Does UWCM Understand the Need? Before a single decision is made, we start with the simple commitment to understand the need. This means analyzing data from a wealth of sources and working with issues experts across our region to form an accurate picture of health and human-service needs, as well as their underlying causes. Local and national data from our Community Issues Management (CIM) system help us understand the wide-ranging issues. 2-1-1 Maryland at United Way of Central Maryland (2-1-1 MD at UWCM), our 24-hour call center that links people in need to information and resources, gives us a sharper picture, identifying gaps in service and where we should focus our investments. In addition to providing a special connection with people who are most vulnerable, 2-1-1 allows us to gauge the volume and intensity of specific issues and requirements as they emerge and change over time. This sort of knowledge enables us to make sure that contributions are deployed wisely and have the greatest impact. — Adrian Bordone, Social Solutions and UWCM Board of Directors, Standards and Outcomes Committee Chair

Making Informed Choices Our donors and funders rely on UWCM to know not only who is at greatest risk, but how we should apply assets to do the most good. To be successful, we start with data and study all of our sources carefully. Our Community Issues Management (CIM) system, which includes thousands of data points, shows there are pockets of poverty in every jurisdiction of central Maryland, not just Baltimore City. But we do a lot more than just crunch the numbers: much of our time is spent working with issues experts and local and state government representatives to deepen our understanding of the data and learn what existing resources are already at work to meet a given need. That means we can deploy donor dollars in the most meaningful way—avoiding duplication of effort and filling in gaps in each jurisdiction that may have been overlooked or underfunded. No less important than analysis is our collaboration with agencies that have a proven track record for achieving real results. We think truly informed choices—and the solutions we deliver—should work at two levels: to help people get out of crisis today and point the way toward a better quality of life tomorrow. —Jim Dickinson, Ph.D., Business Volunteers

CIM Helps Frame and Solve Problems
Collaborating to Fight Homelessness
Thanks to a generous grant from CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, UWCM now has Community Issues Management, a Web-based system that helps local and regional organizations put complex community problems into perspective—and take action to solve them. As a tool that fosters collaborative decision-making, CIM has become integral to our ability to make informed choices. To learn more about this tool and what it can do, see www.uwcm.org/CIM.
For several years communities throughout Maryland have worked with the Homelessness Management Information System (HMIS). Individual jurisdictions have gathered important data about homelessness that has led communities to examine how they provide services and how to reduce this problem. Because of UWCM’s knowledge and experience in this area, the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development awarded us a grant to become the HMIS system administrator for a statewide database. UWCM is spearheading an effort to integrate and coordinate homelessness data from communities throughout our region. This collaborative process will yield a more comprehensive analysis of the problem and allow us to make better decisions to benefit the homeless and families at risk. United Way of Central Maryland l 2009-2010 Annual Report l 5
Helping Those Who Are Most Vulnerable Basic Needs Human Services Programs of Carroll County (HSP), a UWCM-funded partner, helps identify and address gaps in community-service needs. Ms. B. was a single mother who lived with her own mother. While she was in the hospital giving birth to her fourth child, Ms. B.’s mother and children were evicted from their apartment for not paying rent. HSP placed Ms. B., her four children, and her mother in the HSP Women and Children’s Shelter.
U.S. Senator Barbara Mikulski, Governor Martin O’Malley and Comptroller Peter Franchot announced federal funding for four call centers dedicated to 2-1-1 Maryland, the 24-hour hotline that links callers to health and human services information by simply dialing 2-1-1, including 2-1-1 Maryland at UWCM. On May 4, 2010, Governor O’Malley signed into law Senate Bill 527, making 2-1-1 permanent—a milestone in UWCM’s 10-year effort to bring 2-1-1 to Maryland.
At the Shelter, Ms. B. successfully applied for a HUD voucher that helped her family afford decent, safe and sanitary housing. However, with no income, she faced many barriers in raising the required security deposit; HSP paired Ms. B. with a Family Links worker who helped her obtain available public funds and raise money from community partners. Ms. B. and her family were able to find stable housing and began receiving Temporary Cash Assistance, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (food stamps), and Women, Infant, Children (WIC) benefits. Now she is aware of the many other community resources to help her family secure basic needs. Without HSP, Ms. B., her newborn, three older children and her mother would have been homeless. Now, they have hope for a brighter tomorrow.
United Way is helping Bridges move families out of shelters and support their success in permanent housing. United Way’s partnership goes beyond grant-funding. It is a partner—engaged with Howard County as we implement our Plan to End Homelessness, helping us benefit from best practices in other communities. We know it takes a community to make changes that will reduce homelessness. United Way is a key member of that community. —Jane O’Leary, Bridges to Housing Stability; Howard County

Families today may be facing tough times: a recent lay-off, an aging father. They need to know where to turn for quick referrals, services and support. 2-1-1 Maryland is on their side. — Senator Barbara Mikulski
Funding support provided by:
UWCM supported work across the region helping our uninsured neighbors access healthcare services.
Healthy & Safety Thanks to United Way of Central Maryland’s support, 7,752 victims of domestic violence and/or abuse were provided with core services such as shelter and counseling by impact partners across central Maryland to help them be safe last year. The Sexual Assault/Spouse Abuse Resource Center (SARC), a UWCM-funded partner, works to end domestic violence and to create a society free from abuse and fear. The partnership between UWCM and SARC helped facilitate recovery for many victims such as Ms. H., whose husband had often assaulted her during their five-year marriage. When she decided to leave and bring her four children to safety, her husband attacked her; when he was arrested for this incident, SARC stepped in to represent Ms. H. at all hearings. Even though the court granted Ms. H. a Final Protective Order and sole custody of her children, when she began to work toward a divorce her husband refused to pay the court-ordered monetary support for the couple’s children. Once again, SARC came to her assistance. While she continues to recover from this destructive experience, Ms. H. and her family are now safe.
The House of Ruth Maryland greatly benefits from our relationship with United Way of Central Maryland. UWCM is a cornerstone in our ability to reach new audiences…campaigns provide much-needed funding that supports our ability to serve more than 5,500 victims of domestic violence —Sandi Timmins, The House of Ruth each year and to educate thousands more.

Pictured here at the White House is UWCM staff member Amanda Pizzurro, 1st row, 2nd from left, and her mentee Ta’Shawn.
With UWCM funding, impact partners across the region helped nearly 2,000 children and their families prepare for and excel in school. Many volunteers also played a hands-on role as mentors.
Our United Way partnership is a godsend. Without it, our poorest families could not afford our modest tuition. Without our families, the County’s oldest and most credentialed day-care center couldn’t continue. We’re so thankful for United Way support and for everyone who makes it possible—donors and staff alike. — Fred K. Teeter, Jr., Carroll Child

As an after-school tutor in Baltimore City, Emerging Leaders United (ELU) member MaryBeth Furman was troubled by the overwhelming challenges that faced so many of her students. But she was motivated by their power to overcome and achieve. One student in particular amazed her: Morgan excelled in academics—skipping a grade, winning the middle-school spelling bee, and being named the City champion in debate. 8 l 2009-2010 Annual Report l United Way of Central Maryland
MaryBeth, now a UWCM staff member, is Morgan’s Big Sister with the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. MaryBeth nurtures Morgan’s continued academic success and has also been there for many of her Little Sister’s important firsts— learning to swim, carving a pumpkin, and going on a picnic. MaryBeth has seen first-hand how United Way-funded programs support families as well as children; she’s happy to be one part of the bigger picture to help Morgan graduate from high school and realize her potential.
Self-Sufficiency The Women’s Housing Coalition, a Baltimore City agency that received UWCM funding, is dedicated to helping people achieve and maintain social and financial independence. In August 2004, Ms. C., a chronic substance abuser, moved into the Coalition’s Bennett House. At the time she was estranged from her family and children, jobless, and nearly destitute. The staff at Bennett House worked closely with her to set achievable goals that would help her get back on her feet and re-establish ties with her family. Over time Ms. C. began to take more responsibility for herself and for others at UWCM helps people of all ages prepare for a selfBennett House, and as a result she was sufficient life, whether through job training, early named House Manager. In this capacchildhood education or other supportive services. ity she took on even more responsibility and learned skills she could market to potential employers. In a few months she accepted her first job offer, at McDonald’s, which has proven to be a fast track for her personal and professional development. She earned her GED in June 2010, is now the store manager, and is training to become a regional manager. With the help of the Women’s Housing Coalition Ms. C. built not only her skills but also her confidence and hope. She received a housing voucher from Baltimore City and was scheduled to move into her own apartment in September 2010.

Understanding What Works RESULT:
United Way of Central Maryland seeks to help people meet daily needs and become financially independent. We can’t do this alone, so we work with partners throughout the community—including foundations, government agencies, issues experts, funded agencies, and members of the community. Our goal is to thoroughly understand the factors that contribute to financial stability and then apply the most promising practices that help people lead successful lives. The measures of our success—at both the community and program levels—give us valuable feedback about what works. Our funded partners report their successes and challenges to UWCM every quarter, and at the end of the year they assess their progress. This process keeps us focused on real results for our clients and helps us refine and improve what we do every year. —Karen Finn, Results Leadership Group, LLC; UWCM Standards and Outcomes Committee

UWCM volunteers serve during a Day of Action.
The Way Forward As a steward of community resources, we are committed to serve as a more efficient and more transparent clearinghouse—aligning commitment with information, action, and tangible outcomes—with the common goal of stabilizing and then re-building human capacity to achieve lasting impact.
Six days before the end of our 2010 fiscal year, UWCM’s Strategic Planning Committee proposed a revised strategy for our organization focused on Basic Needs. While the research and analysis behind this strategy had begun much earlier, the severity of the recession, our longer-term decline in revenue, and the scope and depth of our clients’ needs spurred us to take decisive action. Our Board of Directors has refocused UWCM’s operating model to make us more effective and more efficient at every level. This model will reinvigorate our position as valued intermediary and better serve the needs of our community. Among its specific recommendations for improvement are: • Undesignated gifts and grants We will engage more donors by defining and communicating a simpler and more compelling statement of value for undesignated giving. We will make such giving an attractive alternative to designated gifts by demonstrating tangible and immediate human impact—with full accountability.
• Donor engagement We recognize that donors have a choice. We must make UWCM the authoritative resource that provides actionable information about needs and causes that are important to them; we will create a donor platform that makes it easier to give, volunteer and advocate; we will welcome donors both within and outside the workplace—and respond to their commitment by showing its effect.
• Measuring impact, communicating results We will do a better job of weighing needs against assets so that we better leverage donor dollars by filling in funding gaps. Then we will measure our effectiveness more broadly—including volunteerism and advocacy as well as dollars, and communicate the large amounts we help others raise, not just the smaller funds we direct.
12 l 2009-2010 Annual Report l United Way of Central Maryland
On the next page we outline how UWCM will be different. These are not visionary objectives, but specific steps we have already begun to implement. As we continue to pursue these strategies they will redefine UWCM—for donors, funders and agencies—as an organization with the unique capability to unite and mobilize stakeholders and drive social change.

The agency’s work with Ms. D., a 19-year-old married mother, exemplifies how the agency makes a difference in the lives of many families in Annapolis and Anne Arundel County. When the agency began working with this young mother she was struggling to work, attend college, care for her son and nurture a troubled marriage. Thanks to the YWCA’s intervention and guidance Ms. D. received marriage counseling and enrolled her son in a school to develop his language skills. She reports that she and her son are doing well. He enjoys his school, and she is succeeding in college.
House of Ruth Maryland works to end violence against women and their children by confronting the attitudes, behaviors and systems that perpetuate it, and providing victims with services necessary to rebuild their lives safely and free of fear. Shortly after her wedding, Ms. E. and her husband conceived a child. Her husband knew about the pregnancy, but one night after drinking too much he threatened her by text message, threw rocks at their house and began to beat her. Eventually he left and was arrested, but an arrest is never enough to help recover from an assault, or, necessarily, to prevent another one. With the help of a United Way attorney and House of Ruth Maryland, Ms. E. went to court and filed for divorce. After the birth of her son, she received full custody and child support from her ex-spouse. Collaboration between UWCM and House of Ruth Maryland has achieved many happy endings, including Ms. E.’s.
Mosaic Community Services (formerly Dulaney Station) is a comprehensive behavioral health organization devoted to enhancing quality of life for people suffering from mental illness and promoting their recovery. With funding from UWCM, Mosaic Community Services’ Residential Crisis Program purchased a CPAP machine to help Mr. F. with sleep apnea-related breathing problems. Mr. F.’s sleep apnea made it difficult to stay awake, which contributed to his being fired. While a seemingly simple solution, the CPAP machine made all the difference, allowing Mr. F. to increase his productivity at home and at work.

Carroll Child Care Centers is a credentialed program for early-childhood education and care, serving families of all income levels. During the recession many successful middle- and uppermiddle-class families experienced financial hardship. Carroll Child Care Centers was able to help parents, including Ms. G., get back on their feet. Shortly after the birth of a child, Ms. G. lost her job. Through a grant from UWCM, the agency provided Ms. G. and her husband a scholarship that allowed their son to continue his school-readiness education and their daughter to enroll. Ms. G. soon found a job and her family’s reduced tuition was returned to normal. During a difficult time, Carroll Child Care Centers provided the family peace of mind and allowed them to enjoy uninterrupted child-care while Ms. G. conducted a job search.
Lester was committed to achieving his personal goals, such as maintaining a job he enjoyed and managing an apartment of his own. After renting his apartment for several years, however, Lester realized that he was ready to own a home. He was referred to Harford Habitat for Humanity, which seeks to create affordable and safe homeownership opportunities for low-income individuals by building, renovating and repairing homes. With UWCM’s funding support, the help of volunteers, and Lester’s own sweat equity, Harford Habitat for Humanity built Lester his dream home, allowing him to achieve yet another goal.
Bridges to Housing Stability empowers families to maintain stability in their homes and, through community partnerships, prevents homelessness in Howard County. After leaving a domestic violence shelter, Ms. I. needed assistance transitioning to an independent lifestyle. She moved into a Bridges shelter where she developed a step-by-step plan for a full recovery. While working toward her goals, Ms. I. advanced her nursing career and is now studying to become a registered nurse. During her time at Bridges, Ms. I. was referred for a special affordable housing program and moved into a nice town home that fits her budget. She now has a bright future.

United Way of Central Maryland l 2009-2010 Annual Report l 29
A Tribute After more than 13 years of leadership as United Way of Central Maryland’s President and Chief Professional Officer, Larry E. Walton stepped down on November 30, 2009. Larry has been vital to the success of United Way of Central Maryland as well as to the United Way system nationally and globally for more than 30 years. His tenure at United Way of Central Maryland was marked by a movement toward program accountability, diversity, community impact and the development of the 2-1-1 Maryland system. Under his leadership, UWCM was recognized by Forbes Magazine in 2002 as one of the top 200 large nonprofits in America and winner of the 2003 James W. Rouse Diversity Award. UWCM also broke new ground in the development and diversity of its governance system. Prior to arriving in Baltimore, Larry led United Way Services in Richmond, Virginia for 15 years and played major roles in the development and growth of the United Way system in the United States and abroad. He was instrumental in working with United Way Worldwide to serve more people in need by helping establish and strengthen United Ways across Europe and in China, Singapore and parts of Africa. Larry started his career as an executive director of the Boys and Girls Club in Erie, Pennsylvania. Larry believed in the power of people and understood the strength of partnerships in getting things done. He also helped mentor and advance the skills and careers of countless professionals in the United Way system. His down-to-earth style, optimism and commanding presence made him an extraordinary leader.
Thank you, Larry! 30 l 2009-2010 Annual Report l United Way of Central Maryland
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader. —JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
