  • Wings for Success 2012 Annual Report
    Outfitting Women with Hope & Confidence ANNUAL Wings for Success improves the employment opportunities of economically disadvantaged women by providing them with work appropriate attire, wardrobe guidance and life skills workshops. Clients of Wings for Success are survivors of domestic violence, homelessness or REPORT addiction. Some are experiencing prolonged unemployment or underemployment. Others are transitioning off government support. Many live in poverty and are struggling to rebuild their lives. By creating a professional outward image, Wings helps women grow their inner self-image to feel confident on job interviews, succeed in the workplace, and become financially self-sufficient. The outcome of such success is a more professional workforce and a stronger economy. A Message from our Board President Wings Family and Friends, In its 15th Anniversary year, Wings for Success has much to celebrate. From an idea and vision – developed by an ambitious group of women around a kitchen table – 2012 an organization has emerged that has served over 7,500 women in our community throughout the years. The perspective of time sheds light on everything that’s been accomplished from those humble beginnings: staff, facilities, a strong volunteer base, and financial stability. As the saying goes, “We’ve come a long way, baby!” Without a doubt, a key to the success of the organization has been the incredible support we have received from the community. Foundations. Volunteers. Civic organizations. Businesses. Each has played a significant role in helping us deliver on our mission. Through partnership, we are making our community a better place to live and work for everyone. Still, 2012 has had its struggles.

  • June 25, 2010 Dear Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. Stockholder
    ® June 25, 2010 Dear Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. Stockholder: We are pleased to inform you that on June 15, 2010, the board of directors of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. approved the spin-off of Vishay Precision Group, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary that operates our precision measurement and foil resistor businesses. The spin-off will separate the ownership and management of our business and that of Vishay Precision Group, which we think will better enable both companies to focus on their core businesses. Vishay Intertechnology is expected to be a more competitive, pure-play discrete electronic components company. We will effect the spin-off by way of a pro rata stock dividend to our stockholders as of June 25, 2010. Each holder of Vishay Intertechnology common stock will receive 1 share of common stock of Vishay Precision Group for each 14 shares of Vishay Intertechnology common stock held, and each holder of Vishay Intertechnology Class B common stock will receive 1 share of Class B common stock of Vishay Precision Group for each 14 shares of Vishay Intertechnology Class B common stock held. The dividend will represent 100% of the equity of Vishay Precision Group outstanding at the time of the spin-off. We expect to distribute shares of Vishay Precision Group on or about July 6, 2010. Cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. Stockholder approval for the spin-off is not required, and you are not required to take any action to participate in the spin-off. You do not need to pay any consideration or surrender or exchange your shares of Vishay Intertechnology common stock.

    U.S. BUSINESS COALITION FOR TPP News Release For Immediate Release June 14, 2010 Contact: Marc Fricchione 202.659.5147 TPP COALITION EXPRESSES STRONG SUPPORT FOR TPP NEGOTIATIONS Urges U.S. and TPP Negotiating Partners to Complete a Comprehensive and High-Standard Agreement by 2011 Washington, D.C., June 14, 2010: The U.S. Business Coalition for TPP issued the attached letter today expressing strong support for the negotiation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement with the countries of Australia, Brunei, Chile, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam. Nearly 100 companies and business associations joined together to support the negotiation of a comprehensive and high-standard agreement: “To help sustain and generate economic activity and jobs in the United States, we believe it is vital for the TPP negotiations to achieve an agreement that expands the ability of all U.S. companies – no matter how big or how small – and their workers to compete in the rapidly growing Asia-Pacific region.” The letter also urged the United States and its TPP partners “to seize this opportunity to simplify and expand trade and investment relations among all eight countries and reach a final agreement by the time that the United States hosts the 2011 APEC Summit.” Negotiators are in San Francisco this week during the second round of negotiations. “These negotiations provide a critically important opportunity for the United States to shape trade and investment in the rapidly growing Asia-Pacific region to create jobs and prosperity at home,” emphasized Orit Frenkel, Co-Chair of the TPP Coalition and Senior Manager for International Trade and Investment of the General Electric Company.
