The two are inseparable: Our team of volunteers, supporters, and professional staff have commitment to our mission as a core part of their personal values, and then bring unique combinations of experience, access, resources, skill, and knowledge. The result is a wonderful collaboration that stretches internationally and includes many of the most accomplished wildlife conservationists of our era. The scientists we work with refl ect our unique approach: Instead of simply sending people into the fi eld, we identify conservationists who’ve already proven that they can create real change for endangered species. Dr. Anne Russon has proven that critically endangered orangutans will occupy recovered forest habitats in Borneo; Dr. Laurie Marker has proven that humans and cheetahs can live side by side in Namibia and other range countries; and Dr. Charles Foley has proven that enlisting local villages in the protection of elephants in Tanzania can bring benefi ts to both humans and wildlife. What we have proven is that a clear mission, combined with a vision, a 4 plan, resources, and hard work can result in success.

    2012 ANNUAL REPORT togetherGetting it done The total amount of volunteer hours contributed during the 2011–2012 fiscal year was the equivalent of results 17 full-time employees. Dear Friends, Looking back at any year at Second Helpings is always rewarding. Each year we can celebrate hundreds of thousands of meals served, more than a million pounds of food kept out of landfills, and dozens of culinary job training graduates and their families working toward a more promising future. This year was different. Our challenges included an ever-growing waiting list for our hunger relief program, a test to put the abundance of food from Super Bowl XLVI to good use, the need to build capacity responsibly and still meet our commitments to partner agencies and the promise to help our graduates build meaningful careers in a tough economy. What makes Second Helpings food rescue, hunger relief and job training programs successful is the unique way that our community comes together to make them work. Volunteers, food donors, businesses, faith-based groups, individual donors and many others transform lives throughout our community each day. Together we make sure that every pound of food, every dollar and every volunteer hour is used to fight hunger and poverty throughout Greater Indianapolis. Yes, we rose to many challenges this year, and like everything else we do, we did it together.
