Service learning develops character and other life skills by actively engaging in and YouthBuild Develops Character meeting the needs of the community. This takes on many interesting forms, such p.8 as visiting the elderly, tutoring children, building community gardens, and painting a community center. Over the past year, IYI students traveled to help victims of Hurricane Sandy; painted murals in their neighborhoods; worked at a local Head Start Center; helped students with disabilities at Visitation Home; and tutored students at the Hedgepeth Williams school. IYI students develop a sense of their abilities by serving others, and the community is proud of their contributions.

Hats off to IYI staff, Esther Brahmi and Stacy Heading, who plan the activities and support students as they build community and themselves.

Her work increases awareness of Isles and the use of skills- based volunteers through networking, building partnerships, and utilizing social media tools. She developed recruiting, training, and tracking systems for volunteer management at Isles, and she performs other functions in the Resource Development office. Right now, she is driving the Miles for Isles 5K race and 1-mile walk at Mercer County Park on May 4. This is the second year of the race, and we plan to double participation.

Christine‘s work is much appreciated at Isles.

According to Yuki Moore Laurenti, Managing James Rolling, 1924–2013, Director for Resource Development, Community Leader and Former “Christine has greatly increased our Isles Trustee capacity. We have come to rely on her In 1991, James and Louise Rolling contacted Isles to talk about expertise and great energy!” creating a community garden near their home on Dunham Street in Trenton’s west ward. As community leaders, James and his wife Louise had lived in the shadows of a crumbling and contaminated factory building for many years. They felt that their neighborhood deserved clean, green space, and they were determined to make that happen. What became clear early on was that the Rollings had a bigger goal—and the capacity to achieve it: the demolition, cleanup, and redevelopment of the former Magic Marker site. What started as a small greening project quickly grew into a major project for Trenton, and Isles was proud to work alongside them to get the old factory and grounds cleaned up. It was a lengthy process, and included two years of growing mustard plants that absorbed toxic lead from the soil. Even more remarkable, the Rollings decided that the neighbors needed to understand the contamination issues, and so they worked with Isles and Rutgers professors to create a course that they and their neighbors participated in.

Today, the results are there for all to see. James was a strong, yet gentle force, a respected leader alongside Louise, his wife of 65 years. They fundamentally altered the trajectory of their Marty Johnson received the “Community Leader of the Year” community by their incredible work, organizing, and courage. award from the Princeton Chamber of Commerce.

3 LIVE green and healthy Isles established the New Jersey Healthy Homes Training Center within Isles Center for Energy and Environment Training (CEET). We partnered with the New Jersey Department of Health to enable the participation of hundreds of home performance and health professionals in the Center’s courses over the past year. As a subcontractor of the New Jersey Department of Housing, Isles also leads the New Jersey Strategic Plan for Healthy Housing, which involves over 20 agencies and nonprofit organizations. Our goal is to encourage everyone to think about homes as a performing resource, one that can be high performing (safe and efficient) or low performing (hazardous and inefficient). Many agencies and organizations have a stake in this approach, and we are learning a lot in this early stage. This is a great time to share what we’ve learned, that the cost of sick and leaky homes is far greater than the cost of fixing them correctly.

Food is basic to family self- reliance. At Isles, we think about that connection a lot. Two years ago, Isles expanded upon its 40+ community and school gardens to include Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) in partnership with Youthbuild students. Students plant, harvest, and sell fresh and pesticide-free produce on Tucker Street, next to their school. This urban CSA includes a mini- farm, a beehive, a composting bin, and a hoop house for year round growing. CSA members pay to receive vegetables, flowers, and herbs throughout the growing season, thus supporting the work of the CSA and making internship opportunities possible for Isles YouthBuild The garden at Isles YouthBuild Institute students.

In 2011, Isles’ Urban Agriculture Project Manager Jim Simon began offering cooking workshops to demonstrate easy, low-cost ways to prepare and eat the new locally grown produce. Today, Jim works with a team, including AmeriCorps service member Tiana Thomas, and two college interns from Santiago, Chile. Jim’s team helped design the bimonthly cooking workshops, conduct research for a community oral history project, and got their hands dirty tending and harvesting winter produce from the hoop house.

Workshops are hosted by the East Trenton Collaborative, a group of community organizations that include Habitat for Humanity, CityWorks, Isles, and HomeFront; and they are having an impact. Many families speak only Spanish, so their children are involved in both cooking and translating. The family- centered approach has led to the creation of a “Plate + Place” series, where films, cooking lessons and discussions around the themes of food and community are a big hit! Jim Simon notes, “The best way to interest kids in eating vegetables is to Jim Simon offers cooking workshops to community members. let them grow and prepare them.”

14 Join the Isles Legacy Society And help ensure that Isles continues to foster self–reliance and build healthy, sustainable communities for future generations.

Peg and Frank Taplin were inspiring friends and longtime supporters. Their first gift in April of 2000 helped create an Isles endowment. They annually supported Isles for 12 more years and, in her will, Peg continued her support through a generous and important bequest. Fittingly, the Isles Trustees placed this gift in the Isles endowment fund, strengthening the very core of the organization for the future. According to her family, Peg Peg and Frank Taplin often spoke of her respect for Isles' approach and philosophy, and she enjoyed learning about innovation at the grass roots level.

These long-term gifts make a big impact on Isles. We hope Peg and Frank will inspire you to consider a similar bequest. For more information on planned giving, visit our website, www.isles.org and click on “Ways to Give” or contact Yuki Moore Laurenti at [email protected], or by phone at 609-341-4721.

BECOME AN Isles Bridge BUilder With an annual gift of $1,000 or more, Isles Bridge Builders help form a bridge connecting those who have resources to share with those whom Isles serves.
