    ANNUAL REPORT We are happy to report the progress of this vital organization during its 29th year of operation! The popular joke is to hold steady at 29 years old and not age. Well, here at BINBA, we are happy to be aging. BINBA celebrates its 30th birthday in 2015 and we are thrilled! As a non-profit organization whose mission enhances the life of hundreds of community members and provides invaluable education to hundreds more, we are honored to have you on our team. An organization is the sum of its people –the clients, staff, board members, volunteers, donors – and true success is the result of a dedicated, passionate, brave, and caring Kimberly Strub group working together towards a shared vision. Henry Ford summed it Patricia Gill President Executive Director up perfectly in his quote, “Coming together is the beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” Karen Schurig, BINBA’s Founder, would be humbled to see the organization’s progress and would be grateful for your involve- ment and support. This past year resulted in expansion in several key areas; number of programs offered, community members served, and financial support received. These are summarized on page two for your reference. We would like to highlight the fact that over 1700 people were reached through our 13 unique and specialized services. New to BINBA this past year was the completion of the Brain Injury Information Handbook (available on our website and in print), a professional Speaker’s Series, and a stroke survivor support group. Lastly, we received financial donations from more donors than ever before and hosted our most successful Gala to date.

    For Immediate Release For more information, contact Rebecca Schimke, Communications Specialist [email protected] 414.263.8125 (O), 414.704.8879 (C) United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County Hosts Children’s Writer & Illustrator of Arthur Adventure Series, Marc Brown, to Promote Childhood Literacy Reading Blitz Day also celebrated Reader, Tutor, Mentor Volunteers. MILWAUKEE [March 25, 2015] – United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County hosted a Reading Blitz Day to celebrate a 3-year effort of recruiting and placing 4,800+ reader, tutor, and mentor volunteers throughout Greater Milwaukee. The importance of reading to kids cannot be overstated. “Once children start school, difficulty with reading contributes to school failure, which can increase the risk of absenteeism, leaving school, juvenile delinquency, substance abuse, and teenage pregnancy - all of which can perpetuate the cycles of poverty and dependency.” according to the non-profit organization, Reach Out & Read. “United Way recognizes that caring adults working with children of all ages has the power to boost academic achievement and set them on the track for success,” said Karissa Gretebeck, marketing and community engagement specialist, United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County. “We are thankful for the agency partners, other non-profits and schools who partnered with us to make this possible.” United Way also organized a book drive leading up to the day. New or gently used books were collected at 13 Milwaukee Public Library locations, Brookfield Public Library, Muskego Public Library and Martha Merrell’s Books in downtown Waukesha. Books from the drive will be donated to United Way funded partner agencies that were a part of the Reader, Tutor, Mentor effort.
