The Flight out of Poverty

The Flight Out of Poverty

ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 The Flight Out of Poverty

How often does the average person encounter the face of poverty these days? Do we know it when we see it anymore? It used to be easily identified as the faces of the “street people,” the vacant staring faces of those leaning against old buildings or the slumbering faces of people sitting on sidewalks and subway grates. The faces of modern poverty are much more subtle and much more pervasive. They are e lderly resigned faces standing in the grocery checkout line with just two items. They are the weary, anxious faces of those pouring your coffee at the local diner or pumping your gas or caring for your mom in the nursing home. They are the pinched, agitated faces of hungry school kids finding it hard to see a brighter future. All would like to fly far away from poverty but few understand how to make a sturd y pair of wings with which to do that.

This annual report is dedicated to the brave families who find their way to HomeFront and are willing to do whatever it takes to learn to make those wings – to lift themselves and their children up and out of poverty to soar into a better life. It is also dedicated to the loving and generous people who give of themselves and their resources to make it all possible because they believe that people can fly. Friends, HomeFront’s mission is Some mornings, as I make my way from the HomeFront parking lot into my office, I can’t help but think of the to end homelessness in Central New Jersey oft-quoted line from Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...” The line by harnessing the caring, resources for food bags regularly snakes out the front door and down the sidewalk. Soaring food prices and reduced safety nets always equal punishing hunger for those with very limited resources. The lines are not only getting longer, and expertise of the community. they are getting grayer. Seniors, many of whom have worked all their lives, are being hit hard by state and federal We lessen the immediate pain of homelessness budget cuts for those in need. and help families become self-suﬃcient. However, there is plenty to report in the ‘best of times’ category. This has been a significant year for HomeFront in many ways.

I am also proud to report that HomeFront has just started a new program, “Mandy's Place,” a small residential home for especially fragile older ladies that will focus on quality of life and the physical stability of its residents. Board of Trustees These new programs are all very exciting for me and our staff but I think what warms my heart the most, and Allen M. Silk, Esq., Chair brings me great peace in these challenging times, are the major improvements we have made to HomeFront’s infrastructure. There’s nothing like the feeling that a strong infrastructure brings. It speaks to ‘forever’ and ‘safety.’ Ruth Scott, Vice Chair It’s that calm feeling you have in your home when a big storm is approaching but you know that your roof and Patricia Hartpence, Secretary windows are tight. This year, a major grant was secured to re-work the infrastructure of our Free Store, one of Anthony C. Stewart, Treasurer HomeFront’s oldest sites and a staple in the Trenton community. Another momentous improvement in Patrice Coleman-Boatwright HomeFront’s infrastructure that doesn’t involve construction crews was the establishment of an endowment Tanuja Dehne, Esq. last year, a significant labor of love and commitment by our Board of Directors. Sangita Karra Thanks to the people listed in this report, lon gtime and much-loved members of the HomeFront family and Brian Kasper some significant new ones, I feel we are entering a new era of being pro-active and ready for the challenges Kevin Malcarney ahead. For me, this feels like a joyous graduation from the years and years of being reactive and flying by the seat of our pants. I feel peaceful and hopeful and, most of all, grateful to each and every one of you.

Audited Statements of Financial Position Year Ended September 30, 2017

HomeFront is as committed as ever to providing access to safe and secure housing, tools for success, basic necessities, and a nurturing environment for children to homeless and at-risk families allowing them to live with dignity as we work with them to break the cycle of poverty. In 2017, we carefully invested more than $10,650,000 in these eﬀorts.

The challenge of reducing the number of homeless families in greater Mercer County continues. The critical array of services that HomeFront provides requires the ongoing support of our benefactors.

We are dedicated to being responsible stewards of the generosity of the many individuals, businesses, foundations, congregations, schools and government agencies who support us throughout the year with gifts of time and treasure.

Our ﬁscal health is stable as we once again experienced a clean audit and maintained a 4-star Charity Navigator rating for excellence in ﬁscal management and commitment to accountability and transparency. We proudly continue to ensure that more than 90 cents of every dollar go directly to supporting the families we serve. — Anthony Stewart, HomeFront Board Treasurer
