In just a few years, we have more than doubled the number of youth served by our Agency. In the past 18 months, we have opened three new Bridges Therapeutic homes; a boy’s home in Mitchell and boy’s and girl’s homes in Rapid City. These homes also increased the number of apartments we have available for older youth in both communities. While it has been a crazy year filled with the stress of the pandemic, the Agency has been blessed to come through this very busy time even stronger than we were Eric Klooz Executive Director before. The work of our staff and board have had a tremendous impact on services available in . The investment in these children is very inexpensive compared to the impact that it will have on their lives and on society. Recently, I was out at a restaurant and ran into an alum. She wanted me to tell everyone “Hello”. She is married and has her own family, which includes two children. She is working hard and in her words, she’s “rockin’ it”! Speaking of rocking it, Abbott House has not one but two very generous donors who want to help us raise the much needed funds in 2021. They are providing a matching challenge of $50,000 each. All we have to do is raise $50,000 from new or increased gifts and both donors will match the gifts creating $150,000 to support the kids. The work that Abbott House is doing is changing lives and making our world a better place. This happens because of people like you who support our projects, volunteer time to help, and simply keep our children in your thoughts and prayers. Thanks for all you do to support these children!

Your support changes lives in so many ways. These are the voices of recent Abbott House youth and alums. • Abbott House has helped me a lot and I feel healthy and confident in my choices. ~ Lilly • If I feel as if my work and opinions are being discredited I tend to act negatively. I want to be successful but I’m still young and need a little assistance in being the best I can. ~ Mary • “I didn’t think I was good enough and I was comfortable with sadness. I deeply hated myself. Neurofeedback changed my life. I am a more confident person inside and I can talk to people now”. ~ LaToya • “Lately I’ve really been feeling working with children and teens that have gone through similar things in their past is my calling. I want to be able to help them heal and learn to love themselves even with what has happened to them. Just like Abbott House helped me” ~ Lindsey Triple Your Impact

Abbott House has seen a 30% increase in the number of youth we are serving because of the opening of three more foster homes in the past 18 months. That means 26 more young people have a home and a family, but it also means we have more youth who need your help. Two generous donors, DeMaris Nesheim and Gopal Vyas, want to encourage others to help change children’s lives by becoming Abbott House supporters. So in essence, they have “put their money where their heart is” and offered $50,000 each in matching funding for any new or increased annual fund gift given for Abbott House children up to $50,000. That means if you give $50, Abbott House will get $150; give $100, Abbott House gets $300, give $100 more than you gave last year, Abbott House receives the amount you gave last year AND the matching $300. Please consider giving or increase your gift in 2021 to help Abbott House children heal.

4 Ferley joins Abbott House team

Beth-Anne Ferley is a Pittsburgh, PA native that has called Rapid City home for over 25 years. She began her Rapid City journey by opening Scribbles Engraving with her husband Steve. Beth-Anne has worked in recruiting and community engagement positions for more than 20 years spending time at United Blood Services as the Donor Recruitment Director, the city of Rapid City as the Sustainability and Recycling Education Coordinator, and most recently at Youth and Family Services as the Community Outreach and Donor Engagement Coordinator. Rapid City holds a special place in Beth-Anne’s heart and she does her best to be involved in causes that tug a few heart strings. She and her husband Steve have been members of the Cosmopolitan Club for over 10 years and Beth-Anne has held leadership positions within the club, culminating with her presidency. Beth-Anne is a part of the Wish-Making team at Make-A-Wish Foundation and she has been a part of the Optimist Club, Zonta and Altrusa Clubs. She is also a Master Gardener and has led the Beth-Anne Ferley Garden Walk for the past 3 years. Beth-Anne lives in Rapid City with her husband and their two dogs. Her daughter, son-in-law and 2 grandchildren also call Rapid City their home. She has 3 step-children and several step-grandchildren whom she loves dearly and sees as often as they can! She spends her spare time reading, teaching marketing classes at Western Dakota Tech and babysitting her grandchildren. Beth-Anne is excited to join the Abbott House team and to grow the community’s knowledge and understanding of Abbott House services and how people can help! Charitable Giving Incentives Expanded in 2021 In 2021, there are even more reasons to give a gift to the Abbott House – not only can you triple any new or increased gift by participating in our matching gift program, you can also gain additional tax advantages! Most taxpayers take advantage of the standard deduction when they are filing their Federal Income Tax Returns. The Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 provides an additional, “above-the-line” charitable deduction on top of the standard deduction for these taxpayers. Taxpayers who do not itemize their deductions can take a one-time deduction of up to $300 on individual returns or $600 on joint returns for gifts made to charity. The deduction applies ONLY for gifts of cash made in calendar year 2021. For those who do itemize their deductions, this act also extends the charitable deduction to 100% of AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) in 2021 for individuals, and the limit from 10% to 25% of AGI for corporations. These expanded provisions can provide incentive for potential donors to begin or increase charitable contributions to charitable organizations such as Abbott House.
