  • ANNUAL REPORT 2016 ANNUAL REPORT INTRODUCTION a Message from Our Executive Director and Board of Directors
    2016 ANNUAL REPORT 2016 ANNUAL REPORT INTRODUCTION A MESSAGE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS Values are much more than words on our website. Values shape the commitment we make to the children and families who trust and depend upon Sarah Heinz House. They define who we are as an organization and reflect the professionalism of the staff and volunteers who serve the hundreds of youth coming through our doors each week. Kids 1st is our highest value. Their emotional and physical safety, learning and development and sheer enjoyment of their childhood and adolescent years is what matters most in all we do. Whether they’re engaged in afterschool and weekend programs or summer camp, our foremost responsibility is to provide experiences that let them know that the high expectations and standards we set for them represent the equally high level of respect and value in which we hold them. Sarah Heinz House is a community-sort of an extended family, for each youth. We know they do not fully leave behind the real world challenges or forget each frustration they encountered on any given day. But this extended family, comprised of friends, and peer and adult mentors offers a safe and caring environment to help set them aside or resolve them in a healthy and positive way. Kids 1st is what our parents, partners and donors expect. We are humbled by the respect and confidence that leads parents to entrust their children to us each day. We are grateful to all the individuals, companies and foundations who choose Sarah Heinz House as a trusted partner in fulfilling their goal of improving the lives and opportunities of our region’s youth.
