“this organization has inspired, developed and changed me into a person who values the potential in others and sees the potential in myself.”
At Youth Resources, our mission is to engage youth in leadership and community service. T H A N K YO U for the role you play in our ability to accomplish that mission every day. We can’t do it without you. This year our team grew, our supporters hit it out of the park and all four of our programs were at capacity, even with increased space! We celebrated Y R ’ S 30 T H B I R T H DAY with students, alumni, parents, volunteers and friends from across the decades and the revelry energy will surely sustain us for the next 30 years and beyond! Read more inside these pages about the year-long party and our final birthday event with special guest Kelly Schaefer. Our students S E R V E D OV E R 8,000 H O U R S with more than 100 local organizations, and they planned 63 service projects with their peers. They opened their hearts to the needs in our community and put their hands to work making a difference. 384 individuals, foundations, and corporations supported our mission this year. With all this amazing support, we raised $436,000 to sustain the Teen Advisory Council, TEENPOWER, Make A Difference Grants, and Vanderburgh County Teen Court. Since 1987 we’ve worked with over 151,000 students and funded more than 3,350 service projects in 6 counties. Our alumni give, serve, and lead in education, healthcare, business, law, nonprofits, tech and more, using the skills they learned through YR’s programs. Read their inspiring stories in the pages that follow. As we end our 30th birthday year, we will continue to give voice to the vision set in 1987 that still deeply resonates with YR’s board, staff and volunteer team: When young people are invited to the table, eccouraged to lead and engaged in service to others, our community thrives. Celebrating # Y R T U R N S 30 was incredible, and we know year 31 will be even better. T H A N K YO U F O R B E I N G PA R T O F O U R Y R FA M I L Y !

make a difference grants LINDSEY KOESTER
MAKE A DIFFERENCE GRANT RECIPIENT
Lindsey utilized a Youth Resources’ Make A Difference Grant to create 25 “Hug Packs” for foster children being placed in new homes. The “Hug Packs” were backpacks filled with basic needs such as shampoo and tooth brushes, but also customized with stuffed animals and blankets to provide foster children with something to call their own. “Family is really big for me. Two of my aunts have adopted foster children and they are what inspired the project,” said Lindsey, “As you grow up you see the things going on in the world and realize how fortunate you are,” Lindsey said. “I love making others feel good about themselves and I can’t stand to see people not feeling their best.” The Koesters delivered the completed packs to the Stand Up Foundation, which aims to creatively serve foster children and families.

Serving on the TAC’s Executive Committee for three years gave college freshman Holden Abshier the chance to work closely with new people he said he wouldn’t have been able to meet otherwise. “I have met some of my best friends through Youth Resources. TAC helped me discover my inner strengths that I didn’t know I had. I was able to learn, teach and lead my peers. TAC gives students the opportunity to change lives and shape futures,” said Holden. Not so sure about that 5:55 a.m. start time? Holden suggests speaking to a current or past member of TAC about the benefits of joining TAC! “Talk to a student who was involved with Youth Resources. They will tell you how their involvement positively impacted their life!” said Holden.

T E E N P OW E R A L U M N A
“I became involved with Youth Resources through my school’s TEENPOWER club. TEENPOWER sends a great message to youth that drugs and alcohol are dangerous, and you don’t need them to be cool or relevant. The program shows youth that they are not alone in their good choices and that they can be the leaders in their communities,” said Labria. Labria, who now works at Toyota Boshuku, said attending TEENPOWER was like becoming part of a family. “I met people that loved me for who I was and supported me. It changed how I look at the world and how I treated people. It helped shape who I am today. The youth and community impacted is worth every hour put into sustaining and creating these programs, and I wouldn’t trade my involvement for anything.”

“Youth Resources has made me a better student, friend and person,” said Samyuth, who was an active volunteer with Youth Resources’ Vanderburgh County Teen Court. “Youth Resources instilled the importance of support groups and how to maintain relationships between friends. I learned how to speak clearly and concisely, manage my time and really listen to the opinions of others. Most of all, I loved seeing the difference YR’s programs made in the community.” Samyuth’s credits his involvement with Teen Court to helping him become a better public speaker and teaching him the importance of maintaining healthy peer friendships. Although he doesn’t see his YR friends every day, when he does they pick up where the left off: “It’s like picking up a conversation that happened yesterday.”

2017 YOUTH OF THE YEAR ABBY MUELLER Youth Resources named 18-year-old Abby Mueller as its 2017 Youth of the Year during its 23rd Annual Hall of Fame Celebration. As voted on by Youth Resources’ Board of Directors, Mueller was tabbed Youth of the Year as a result of her creation of Job Search Resource Books for Albion Fellows Bacon Center clients. Mueller obtained a Make A Difference Grant from Youth Resources to cover the printing costs of the book that provides tips for how to conduct oneself, answer interviews questions, how to dress, and also includes empowering quotes to give readers encouragement as they seek employment. “Abby’s passion was evident within her project,” said Rachel Gumble, Albion’s Community Engagement Director. “It is so refreshing to see a youth in our community with fervor for helping others the way that Abby does.”

Robert “Scooter” Tiemann was an advocate for youth and a long-time volunteer with YR’s TEENPOWER and Teen Advisory Council programs. We were, and still are, broken-hearted at his unexpected passing in 2013. The Scooter Scholarship Fund was founded in his honor to help teens attend TEENPOWER who couldn’t otherwise afford it. To date, fund donations and proceeds from the Scooter Scramble have sent 74 students to TEENPOWER to have the time of their lives. Special thanks to Bob, Tee, Carlee, Chip and Melissa Tiemann for their unwavering support of Scooter’s legacy.

ben & kim early M O N T H L Y DO N O R S How has YR impacted your life? Ben: YR has helped form the person I am today. TEENPOWER brought me out of my shell as a young adult. As an adult, it has given me the opportunity to give back to our community. The amazing thing about YR is no matter how much I give, I continue to receive. What is your favorite YR memory? Ben: Of all the memories over all the years, having our son, Drew at Middle School TEENPOWER last year is easily my favorite. Seeing him get to fully participate in the camp that has always been part of his life and truly thrive in the TEENPOWER culture has been amazing. Mentors’ regular gifts make an enormous difference at YR. Why did you decide to start giving monthly? Ben & Kim: Grants and backing for YR from longtime sources are becoming more difficult to obtain. YR is an integral part of our community and as the old saying goes “every little bit counts.” What impact do you hope your monthly gift will achieve for YR? Ben & Kim: That the best programs in our community are still here for generations to come.
B E N is a dispatcher for the City of Evansville and Vanderburgh County. He was named Outstanding Alumni at YR’s Hall of Fame in 2016. K I M is a trained chemist and volunteers alongside Ben with Boy Scouts, Tiger Archery and St. Benedict Cathedral and School.

ann & kent burnworth K I N C A I D COO P E R L E G AC Y S OC I E T Y DO N O R S How did you get involved with Youth Resources? We heard about the good work Phyllis Kincaid and the Youth Resources group was doing throughout the region in the late 80s. We never cared what our kids turned out to be - we just didn’t want them to grow up to be jerks. YR’s programs helped them become the compassionate, caring, generous, thriving adults they are today! Bequests make an enormous difference for YR. Why did you decide to put Youth Resources in your plans? We saw the enormous positive changes being made through YR’s programs, not only with our own kids but with all students served through YR’s programs. With nonprofit budgets always being in flux, we felt it was our duty to revise our wills and add YR as a bequest. What impact do you hope your planned gift will achieve for YR? We hope others in the community follow suit. We certainly are not rich, so if we can add YR into our monthly budget and wills, then any family can. Our gift alone will not keep YR going in perpetuity, but if we don’t start somewhere and if each of us who cares about young people doesn’t act YR will not be around for future generations.
K E N T is a stalwart of YR’s Fall Festival volunteer crew, but he has volunteered in many capacities over the years since he and Ann’s daughters started in Youth Resources. Kent retired after more than 30 years with the Evansville Police Department. A N N retired as the Executive Director of Youth Resources in 2015. In she and Kent’s new Kentucky community she is helping to launch a nonprofit dedicated to training service dogs.

“Youth Resources is without a doubt why I am the person I am today. For the past eight years of my life, this organization has inspired, developed and changed me into a person who values the potential in others and sees the potential in myself,” Lauren said. “If you’ve never witnessed 150 plus students shouting encouragement at 5:50 am, a jury of teens collaborate and fight for the well-being of a firsttime offender, a young mind with a big idea turn their goal into reality with a Make A Difference Grant, or been in a room of 250 students hugging, laughing, and crying with people they met a few days before, it’s hard to understand the impact of YR on this incredible community!” “If you haven’t seen a YR program in action, take my word for it - I’ve been involved in every single one. The youth in these programs take in these resources and exhale talent, enthusiasm and hope.”
LAUREN has been involved with Youth Resources since 2009, and she was named Outstanding Senior at YR’s Hall of Fame in 2016. She is a sophomore at IUPUI where she studies nonprofit management, serves on the Morale committee for Jagathon and works as a campus ambassador, giving tours to prospective students and families.
