You have had a direct impact on more than 210,000 individuals in need. I would like to take a moment to share with you one example that exemplifies your generosity. Stacy Mansfield is a single mother of two beautiful children, five-year-old Gianna and nine-year-old Dominique. When we met Stacy, she had recently lost her mother and her home, and she was moving her kids every few weeks, sleeping on friends’ couches or at homeless shelters. Gianna and Dominique started doing poorly in school, and Stacy was struggling to put food on the table. Your donations helped Stacy get back on her feet. Your support allowed us to offer Stacy and her kids a supply of emergency food and assistance with Stacy’s job search. With a little help, she quickly found a job and a place to live. Now, Gianna and Dominique do not always have to worry about where their next meal is coming from. Thank you for making the New Year so much brighter for Stacy and her children, and for so many other families in our community. Your thoughtfulness is truly a life-saving blessing for families like Stacy’s, because in many cases, they have nowhere else to turn.

I am one of the people who really love the city, and I couldn’t wait to come back.” PART I Local Farmers Help Hungry NEIGHBORS On more than 500 acres in Tangipahoa Parish, five generations of a local family have been raising high-quality produce for more than 100 years. The sprawling Liuzza Produce Farm produces an abundance of strawberries, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, cabbage, and other produce year-round. “It’s in our blood,” said Joey Liuzza, Operations Manager. “I’ve got my kids growing up in it. We’re still farming the same land settled by my great-greatgreat grandparents.” Helping Neighbors The Liuzza family donates thousands of pounds of produce each month to Second Harvest Food Bank, part of the family’s decades-long history of giving back to the community. Fresh produce is always in high demand at our 474 partners and programs across 23 parishes. Donations like these from the Liuzza family are vital to our ability to provide the most nutritious food possible to seniors, children, and others struggling with hunger. Joey Liuzza says he’s seen the struggle that many in his parish have had in trying 4 to keep enough healthy food on the table. “Anybody that comes up needing anything – family, friends, or people who want to help other people – we give them our surplus fresh produce,” Liuzza said. “We have a gentleman who cooks for twelve families, and he’ll come get whatever we have that day, and he’ll put a meal together for them.” Liuzza says the partnership with Second Harvest allows him to be sure his surplus produce will become meals for those in need rather than ending up in a landfill. “When Second Harvest’s trucks come out, it becomes easy to deliver a lot of product at once. We loaded two bins of eggplant and a bin of cucumbers on the truck today. When we hear back about how everyone really liked the food, it’s a really good feeling.” Thanks to the Liuzza family and other farmers, hungry neighbors in South Louisiana have plenty of fresh produce, and their gifts ensure that every eggplant and cucumber winds up on the tables of those in need. “ANYBODY THAT COMES UP NEEDING ANYTHING – FAMILY, FRIENDS, OR PEOPlE WHO WANT TO HELP OTHER PEOPLE – WE GIVE THEM OUR SURPLUS FRESH PRODUCE.” Sister Judy and the Heroes Who fight to end hunger Sister Judy Zynda is one of the regular volunteers who make it possible to fulfill our mission. Sister Judy donates her time helping with administrative tasks in our offices, including data entry for our volunteer and financial departments. As a member of the Order of The Adrian Dominican Sisters, Sister Judy has seen firsthand what happens when many of the most at-risk members of our society fall through the cracks. “Our congregation has a specific mission to work for women and for the poor, and Second Harvest really helps us carry that out. Women, children, the poor particularly, often get ignored, or people just don’t know about them.” Originally from Detroit, Sister Judy fell in love with the New Orleans area while serving at a Kenner-area church in the 1990s, and then as a teacher at St. Mary’s Dominican High School. Her work in the Order then took her to Houston and Seattle. But following Katrina, a short talk with a friend working at a New Orleans-area nonprofit was all it took for her to pack her bags and head back to South Louisiana to be a part of the rebuilding process. “I just feel at home here. I am one of the people who really loves the city, and I couldn’t wait to come back.” In her work with the Dominican Sisters, she has seen how quickly people can find themselves at hunger’s doorstep. “I have met a number of folks who are hanging on by their fingernails. There’s no real stereotype for this. It can be anybody. I think there are far more people than we realize who are a single paycheck away from being homeless, or from needing to ask for assistance with food. It’s just happening so much more in our country than five, ten, twenty years ago.” The work of Sister Judy and thousands of other volunteers at Second Harvest equates to an additional 25 full-time staff members. They are the true heroes in the fight to end hunger here in South Louisiana. 5 25 SECOND HARVEST’S 7 ANTI-HUNGER PROGRAMS million POuNDS OF FOOD distributed 1 FOOD DISTRIBUTION With one in six households in Louisiana at risk of hunger, the solution requires a tremendous community effort. Second Harvest represents the largest charitable anti-hunger network in Louisiana, and we offer a variety of distribution programs to reach as many households in need as possible. Non-profit and faith-based food pantries, shelters, soup kitchens, and other partner organizations located in neighborhoods throughout South Louisiana depend on us to supply food and grocery products year-round. With warehouses in New Orleans and Lafayette, Second Harvest distributes 25 million pounds of food and groceries to 474 partners and programs across South Louisiana, reaching 210,000 people each year. That’s the equivalent of 22.5 million meals to individuals and families in need. 210,000 6 people reached annually 7 7,500 families served 2 Mobile and School Pantries A mobile pantry is a traveling food truck that brings fresh produce and other perishable foods directly to people living in places where such resources are scarce. Our mobile pantries run daily throughout our 23-parish service area, at each site providing up to 200 families with a 3 to 5 day supply of food. Our School Pantry program alleviates child hunger by reaching children and their families at school – one of the most accessible and safe locations there is. Second Harvest currently operates a pilot school pantry in Opelousas that serves up to 200 families. And this year we’re expanding the program to three additional schools in Orleans Parish. 38 8 MOBILE pantries monthly 9 6,000 children served annually 3 KIDS CAFE AND SUMMER FEEDING Our afterschool Kids Cafe and summer-long Summer Feeding programs offer schools, community centers, camps and other childcare facilities access to hot meals and healthy snacks when school meals are not available. Meals are prepared fresh in our kitchen, delivered free of charge, and meet or exceed USDA nutritional guidelines. Our kitchen is the largest Summer Food Service sponsor in Louisiana, serving the children who need food most. Both Kids Cafe and Summer Feeding programs are offered through a partnership with the Louisiana Department of Education and the USDA, as part of the Child Nutrition Act. We serve more than 338,000 meals to 6,000 children annually. 338,000 10 meals served annually 11 55 CLASSES TAUGHT 4 COOKING MATTERS Cooking Matters is a six-week cooking, nutrition and food budgeting program that provides at-risk families and individuals with the skills and confidence to make healthy and affordable meal choices. Classes are taught by staff and volunteer culinary and nutrition experts at multiple sites throughout South Louisiana. The curriculum is engaging and participatory, including the purchase and preparation of tasty, budget-friendly meals. Participants take home a box of ingredients so they can practice at home. In 2014, we taught 55 classes and graduated 400 students. 400 graduates 12 13 1,881 SNAP applications submitted 5 CLIENT SERVICES At Second Harvest, we know that emergency food assistance is only a temporary solution to hunger. That’s why we provide access to additional public and private resources for clients struggling to achieve economic stability. Our Client Services team provides one-on-one case management, both in person and over the phone, to thousands of individuals and families across South Louisiana. Our bilingual staff and volunteers are here to listen and troubleshoot with community members. We begin each conversation with the question: how can we help? We then tailor our services to the needs of the individual. Our team is trained to help our customers access resources that will help move them toward self-sufficiency, until they no longer have to rely on a food pantry or SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits to put food on the table. 3,088 calls answered 14 Programs and services offered: • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly Food Stamps) • Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) • Child Care Assistance (CCAP) • Kinship Care •Medicaid • Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) referrals • Children’s Medicaid (CHIP) • Women’s Health Services (Bayou Health/Take Charge) • Louisiana Workforce Registration • Emergency Food Assistance • Marketplace Healthcare Enrollment • Prescription Discount Cards 15 410,160 meals provided 6 BACKPACK PROGRAM Our Backpack Program is designed to reduce childhood hunger by bridging the gap between school days and weekends or school holidays. Children who receive free or reduced-price school breakfast and lunch may not have enough food at home to escape hunger when school is not in session. In response, Second Harvest provides backpacks full of healthy foods directly to at-risk children at the end of the school week. Last year, we provided backpacks to 1,709 children at 32 schools across South Louisiana. backpacks Provided to 1,709 16 children 17 22,000 7 meals served annually SENIOR CAFE For many in our community, hunger is a terrifying possibility and an awful reality – often hitting seniors the hardest. They have worked hard all their lives but often do not have enough income in retirement to make it without some assistance. They are our parents and grandparents – folks who live alone or in congregate care centers. Seniors represent 20% of the people currently served by Second Harvest. In addition to our food distribution program, we operate a Senior Cafe program that prepares and distributes freshly made, wholesome meals daily to senior centers in Greater New Orleans. Accommodations are made for individuals with limited feeding abilities and special dietary restrictions. Also, our menu is selected to reflect the traditions of our region’s cuisine while adhering to the unique nutritional needs of a senior population. We serve more than 22,000 meals annually through our Senior Cafe program. But there are so many more seniors that we have yet to reach. To meet this need, we are actively looking for partners and resources to expand Senior Cafe across our service territory. 20% 18 of people served are seniors 19 Our STories “I FEEL LIKE I’M BLESSED...TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED.” PART II Eating healthier on a limited budget Thousands of South Louisiana residents live on a fixed or limited income, and many have trouble paying their bills and buying groceries each week. Metairie resident Harriett M. and her husband participated in our Cooking Matters nutrition education class. They say it has made a dramatic difference in how they shop, cook, and eat on a limited budget. “It was just such a wonderful program,” Harriett said. “It helps tremendously. I work, but my husband Mark had a stroke a few years ago and can no longer work. We really have to watch our budget. Cooking Matters helped so much in making ends meet.” At no cost to participants, the program features a cooking class weekly for six weeks at Second Harvest’s Community Kitchen or a partner agency. Cooking Matters Coordinator Kate McDonald says it’s vitally important to educate those on a fixed income about the healthier options available when mapping out shopping and meal plans in a hands-on, real-world setting. “They get a cookbook, and they get groceries every week. For example, if we make vegetarian lasagna in our Cooking Matters class, they also get the ingredients to make the same recipe at home,” McDonald said. The classes also feature a grocery store tour, teaching participants how to stretch their dollars and still provide healthy meals for themselves and their families. Harriett says she now shares what she learned with other friends on a limited income. “We learned so much about how to buy in bulk, and how to read ingredient lists to look for things like sodium.” One surprising thing Harriett says she learned from the program is how quickly you can prepare a healthy meal. “That amazed me. When you get home from work, you’re tired, and it’s so quick to prepare the meals Cooking Matters showed us. It’s so easy.” Mobile Pantries Bring Fresh Food to Those Who Need It Most Sixty-one-year-old Timothy Cola is one of many veterans in South Louisiana who is struggling to find enough to eat every week. Thanks to you, he has a place to turn. Like so many of his generation, Mr. Cola keeps a positive outlook despite his dayto-day troubles. “I feel like I’m blessed…too blessed to be stressed.” As a young man in New Orleans, he enlisted in the Navy and shipped overseas to Vietnam. Mr. Cola was serving aboard the USS Warrington, a Naval Destroyer off the coast of Vietnam, when the vessel struck two U.S. mines, crippling and nearly sinking the ship. Mr. Cola and his shipmates managed to keep the Warrington afloat. “It was a very traumatic experience,” he told us. Now, 46 years later, Mr. Cola has several physical ailments that require visits to Veterans Administration doctors every week and many medications. He finds it difficult to afford to keep food in the house. “My bills got to get paid, I don’t want to be homeless,” Mr. Cola said. “Second Harvest helps immensely, because groceries are the last on my list.” Mobile Pantries Deliver Mr. Cola is able to get nutritious food each month at the St. Peter AME Church in the 20 “WE learned so much about how to buy in bulk, and how to read ingredient LISTS TO LOOK FOR THINGS LIKE SODIUM.” Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, the site of a monthly mobile pantry sponsored by First NBC Bank. Mobile pantries are refrigerated trucks that can carry fresh food into hardto-reach neighborhoods where people do not have regular access to a grocery store or a permanent food pantry. “I come out every month, every month I’m able,” he said. Pastor David E. Smith says his working-class neighborhood is one of the areas of New Orleans that has not bounced back following Katrina. “Hollygrove has one of the highest crime and highest illiteracy rates in the city,” Smith said. “And in the last few years, there’s been a tremendous increase in need in this particular area.” And that’s where community supporters have stepped in and made such a tremendous difference in the lives of folks like Timothy Cola. Thanks to your support, hungry people have access to a regular supply of healthy food in hardto-reach neighborhoods across South Louisiana. We could not make this happen without your support. 21 STATEMENTs OF FINANCIAL POSITION Current assets: 2014 2013 $1,654,088 2,543,834 $2,005,798 2,149,219 1,062,155 121,272 34,283 2,562,926 1,065,699 24,677 120,550 2,844,920 $ 7,978,558 $ 8,210,863 Pledges receivable, non-current 386,787 Property and equipment - net 10,344,304 Investments, permanently restricted 1,377,643 Other assets 27,422 502,355 10,517,402 Cash and cash equivalents Investments Contributions and grants receivables Other receivables Prepaid expenses Inventory Total current assets Total assets 1,268,266 109,061 $ 20,114,714 $ 20,607,947 Non-current liabilities Note-payable, long-term Total liabilities Private Philanthropy Government Support Program Revenues and Other Investments $612,796 229,476 $568,171 185,268 $ 842,272 $ 753,439 4,283,560 4,524,153 $ 5,125,832 $ 5,277,592 12,708,560 902,679 1,377,643 12,988,559 1,073,530 1,268,266 Total net assets $ 14,988,882 $ 15,330,355 Total liabilities $ 20,114,714 $ 20,607,947 and net assets 22 84% 11% Year Ended Year Ended June 30, 2013 June 30, 2014 TemporarilyPermanently Revenues UnrestrictedRestricted Restricted Total Total Contributions, donations and grants United Way allocations and designations $ 4,072,707 $ 461,030 $ - $ 4,533,737 $ 5,649,131 233,238 254,244 - 487,482 284,354 Governmental financial assistance Special events (net of direct costs of $402,089 in 2014 and $346,772 in 2013) Other revenues Investment income Contributed goods and services Net assets released from restrictions 2,496,948 - - 2,496,948 1,736,252 403,042 854,250 324,248 102,660 966,113 - - - - (886,125) - - 189,365 - (79,988) 403,042 854,250 513,613 102,660 - 411,275 959,213 369,234 110,100 $ 9,453,206 $ (170,851) $ 109,377 $ 9,391,732 Total public support and revenue EXPENSES Net assets: Unrestricted Temporarily restricted Permanently restricted 58% 27% Current liabilities: Total current liabilities statement of activities 15% Liabilities and net assets Accounts payable and accrued expenses Note payable, current DISTRIBUTED ANNUALLY REVENUE SOURCES (excluding food value) HOUSEHOLDS IN LOUISIANA ARE AT RISK OF HUNGER MEALS FISCAL YEAR 2014 ASSETS 1 IN 6 22.5 MILLION 2% 3% Expenses Program services Management and general Fundraising Total expenses Operational change in net assets 5,830,324 1,058,397 1,450,041 - - - - - - 5,830,324 1,058,397 1,450,041 5,074,668 1,073,500 1,397,969 $ 8,338,762 - - $ 8,338,762 $ 7,546,137 $ 1,114,444 $ (170,851) $ 109,377 $ 1,052,970 $ 1,973,422 Food Support: Receipts of food and grocery products Donated product 29,875,640 - - 29,875,640 28,099,184 USDA commodities 11,676,378 - - 11,676,378 12,653,409 Total receipts of food and grocery products Distribution of Food and Grocery $ 9,519,559 $ 41,552,018 $- $ - $ 41,552,018 $ 40,752,593 Program Services Distribution of food and grocery products 42,946,461 - - 42,946,461 40,355,858 Fundraising Food support change in net assets (1,394,443) - - (1,394,443) 396,735 Management and General Change in net assets (279,999) (170,851) 109,377 (341,473) 2,370,157 Net Assets $ 12,988,559 $ 1,073,530 $ 1,268,266 $ 15,330,355 $ 12,960,198 Beginning of year End of year $ 12,708,560 $ 902,679 $ 1,377,643 $ 14,988,882 $ 15,330,355 23 TOP 10 FOOD DRIVES OF 2014 GROUP THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR VOLUNTEERS AND DONORS.
