2008 ANNUAL REPORT

The All Stars Project, Inc. (ASP) is a non-partisan, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to promoting human development through the use of an innovative performance-based model.

The ASP creates outside-of-school, educational and performing arts activities for tens of thousands of poor and minority young people. It sponsors community and experimental theatre, develops leadership training and pursues volunteer initiatives that build and strengthen communities.

The ASP actively promotes supplementary education and the performance-learning model in academic and civic arenas. Dear Friends,

2008 was an exciting year of unpr ecedented growth for the All Stars Project. We witnessed the flourishing of our newest All Stars outpost in Chicago; we established pioneering bridge-building initiatives involving young people and adults from diverse backgrounds; and, we raised more money – all from private sources – than ever before in our non-profit’s twenty-eight year history.

Through the pictures and words enclosed, I am pleased to report to you on the accomplishments of the All Stars Project, which began as an unfunded, grassr oots experiment in the South Bronx in the early 1980s.

With your extraordinary investment, support and vision, All Stars has become a leader in providing developmental opportunities to inner-city young people… and to people in all communities. As our country begins a new chapter , All Stars is demonstrating every day that there are new innovative approaches working in our communities.

I hope you enjoy reading about our many performances, as much as we have enjoyed giving them.

Sincerely,

Gabrielle L. Kurlander President and CEO

ON THE CUTTING EDGE

All Stars youth with founder, Fred Newman, Ph.D.

The focus of psychology over the last centur y on abnormal behavior has failed to produce effective solutions to critical social problems.

Through many people’s work, including our own, a new positive theory has emerged that offers tools to build on people’ s strengths, build their relationships with one another and with their communities.

The focus of this new theor y and practice is performance. This, we believe, offers the key to continued human development.

— Fred Newman, Ph.D.

2 ALL STARS PROJECT, INC. YOUTH DEVELOPMENT MODEL

Creating new performances in a talent show, a corporate office, or a play, stretches young people and opens doors of success for all childr en. The All Stars Project’s innovative approach to development is guided by performance and is implemented in these cor e programs.

The All Stars Talent Show Network (ASTSN) involves inner-city youth, ages 5 to 25, in cr eating developmental culture through producing and performing in weekend talent shows in their neighborhood school auditoriums. Young people in the ASTSN perform as rappers, singers and dancers; and also learn how to organize the productions, performing as ushers, ticket sellers, box office staff, spokespersons, stagehands and managers, as well as technical and security staf f.

The Development School for Youth (DSY) enriches the lives of inner-city youth through developmental experiences provided in partnership with businesses and caring corporate professionals. DSY is an outside-of-school program that offers supplemental educational, social and internship experiences in a variety of workplace settings. This training prepares youth to enter the workforce, pursue educational opportunities, and face challenges in new ways.

Youth Onstage! (YO!) gives young people, ages 13-21, the opportunity to perform on stage in plays that have something to say about the world and its future. They also participate in the YO! Community Performance School, with classes taught by a volunteer faculty of world-class theatre professionals.

AN ENDOWMENT OF FRIENDSHIP

Members of the ASP President’s Committee give $1,000 or more annually to support ASP programs. Their support forms the backbone of ASP’s private funding model, and guarantees high- quality, innovative performance programs to over 10,000 poor children every year. In addition, the committee’s consistent and dependable generosity is the engine of All Stars Project’s growth.

A dynamic leadership body, ASP President’s Committee members are givers in many ways. Some volunteer with the programs, directly connecting to young people from diverse neighborhoods. Others reach out to their personal and professional networks, introducing new people to All Stars Project programs and asking for their support. Many ASP President’s Committee members attend All Stars Project special events, galas, benefits, and youth performances held throughout the year.

The President’s Committee is the nucleus of the All Stars “endowment of friendship,” a unique private funding base which has been built over the last 30 years through countless hours of volunteer effort and millions of conversations. The All Stars fundraising model is creating an unmediated relationship between those who give and those who are served, and a new kind of partnership in America – young people in our poor communities, p eople from all walks of life, middle-class and affluent adults working together to improve the quality of life in our country.
