2011 Annual Report Draft v2 - Handi

Empowering Individuals - Transforming Lives
Annual Report 2010-2011
Letters from our Leadership
Dear Friends of Handi-Crafters,
Dear Families, Colleagues and Supporters,
It has been an honor to
serve as President the past
four years, especially this
last year as we celebrated
Handi-Crafters’ 50th Anniversary. On January 1, 2012,
Don Sheldon takes over this
role. He has been a member
of the Handi-Crafters board
of directors for three years.
Don brings extensive business management experience which will benefit
John with son Todd
Handi-Crafters and he will
provide excellent leadership as we move forward.
From our humble beginnings in a church fifty
years ago, Handi-Crafters
has grown into a campus.
We now have two beautiful modern facilities serving over 400 people.
From a single job rolling
newspapers for furniture
stuffing, we can now
boast about being a
player in the supply-chain
Amy (R) with Tina
for the Verizon FiOS
product, as well as working with several national and
international companies. From our original focus serving
the developmentally disabled, we have expanded to
include numerous populations with barriers to employment. From an agency with a single program, we now
offer multiple services to the community, from supported employment to independent living.
It has been a pleasure to work with Amy Rice, HandiCrafters’ Executive Director, the staff and board members
associated with Handi-Crafters, and especially our clients,
those individuals who benefit from the services we provide.
There is nothing more rewarding than the smiles you see
when walking through the workshops, the handshakes and
hugs, and the friends they have made. Believe it or not,
we have a few people in our Older Adult Daily Living Center who have received services at Handi-Crafters for nearly
fifty years. I can’t imagine what their lives would have
been like without Handi-Crafters. For my son Todd, and
hundreds of others, Handi-Crafters provides his life with
purpose, friends and the opportunity to learn new skills.
Handi-Crafters is blessed with faithful donors who believe
in the importance of the services we provide. In these
challenging times we realize that government funding is
not unlimited. The support of foundation, corporate and
individual donors ensure that Handi-Crafters will continue
to have the resources to make a positive difference in the
lives of individuals who need that extra support to succeed. We are also blessed with a dedicated staff, board
and volunteers who are truly committed to improving the
lives of those we serve.
In 2011 the Board of Directors and Managers of HandiCrafters completed a three year strategic plan. The plan
calls for Handi-Crafters to identify opportunities to improve
and expand the services we provide our clients. We also
will develop ways to learn from other service providers and
look for opportunities to share ideas and collaborate which
can improve the lives of all individuals with disabilities.
In closing, I’d like to thank everyone for the opportunity to
serve as President the last four years, for your advice and,
most importantly, for your past and future support for the
individuals we serve. May Handi-Crafters’ next fifty years
be as successful as the past fifty have been.
Sincerely yours,
We accomplished a great deal in our first fifty years and
yet, service demand only continues to increase and the
needs of those we serve continue to evolve. We have
already outgrown our present program space. We are
squeezing out every last square inch of office space for
our staff. Even our, now only five year old, retirement
center is starting to feel a bit tight. We may soon face
the unhappy situation of turning people away, a possibility we are not ready to accept. Currently we are looking at very tentative plans to expand. But what will that
look like? What will Handi-Crafters’ role be in the next
fifty years?
During this economic collapse Handi-Crafters has been
fortunate to remain strong. We have grown our servicebased partnerships with community organizations and
with incorporating Residential Living Options into our
service continuum the opportunity for collaboration and
consolidation has become increasingly clear.
There are a number of services we would like to make
easily accessible to the people we serve. The plans for
the future we are working on would create more opportunity for program development and collaboration. We
would design flexible space to allow for a fluid community of service providers to work together. Imagine being able to access essential services at work! We will
focus on expanding our collaborative efforts to create
an integrated service experience and learning culture in
order to achieve collective impact and meaningful
change.
The capabilities and potential of those we work with
never ceases to amaze us. Their success stories demonstrate the human potential that we have yet to fully
tap.
Sincerely,
John Gillespie
Past President

Handi-Crafters Adds Independent Living Solutions to our Service Continuum
Handi-Crafters took an exciting
strategic step this year to enhance
our mission of empowering people
with disabilities to live independent,
productive and fulfilling lives.
Residential Living Options (RLO), a
non-profit providing independent
housing counseling, education and
advocacy for people with disabilities
merged into Handi-Crafters, becoming the Independent Living Solutions
program.
There is a great deal of interdependence between employment, housing
and other basic needs that cannot be
overstated. By consolidating supportive
services for people with disabilities under one roof we are creating greater
Housing Counselor, Nova Adams, works with Patricia to navigate The Benefits
Bank, an innovative web-based portal, that cuts through the complexity of the
benefits system connecting individuals to benefits they need.
Through this collective service continuum individuals with disabilities and their
families are accessing a diverse set of resources and services that will help guide
and support them throughout the course of their lives.
efficiencies and opportunities to enhance the lives of
those in need in our community.
Crafters is the only organization in Chester County
offering this service directly to people with disabilities.
“We saw this as a chance to provide more services to
those we work with, as well as an opportunity to
reach out to more individuals in need,” states HandiCrafters’ Executive Director, Amy Rice. “Plus streamlining services such as housing and employment just
makes a lot of sense, especially in this day and age.”
This means when an individual comes to HandiCrafters they are accessing a comprehensive assessment process that evaluates their diverse needs, their
ability to live independently and their employment
potential. We then work with each individual to help
them accomplish their goals and realize that potential.
ILS brings its expertise in counseling and advocacy,
home modifications, roommate support and service
coordination guiding hundreds of individuals and their
families towards a more stable, safe and independent
life.

This past year Handi-Crafters began partnering
with On Air Direct to package products sold on
QVC. The Test Tube product series is a collection of
some of the most in-demand beauty products on
the market. Handi-Crafters has packaged four different Test Tube lines featuring 8-10 beauty products in each tube. We have produced over 220,000

of over 3,600 Test Tubes per day. “Doing business

with Handi-Crafters is a terrific experience” says
Vince Guldin, Operations and Warehousing Manager for On Air Direct. “We have built a relationship
based upon communication, trust, and customer
service. Their participation in the Test Tube project
has been invaluable. The quarterly Test Tube sales
have exceeded expectations and the kits sell out
with regularity. I look forward to incorporating
Handi-Crafters in other projects in the future.”
This past fiscal year Handi-Crafters has worked
with 51 customers to help get products to market.
In addition to major contracts with such distinguished companies as Summit Container, SC Johnson and CTDI, we’ve continued to expand our
partnerships and take on new opportunities. This
includes work with Echo Data, a Coatesville-based
fulfillment center, to package products that Echo
Data delivers to customers, such as packaging 14
different products for Quirky, an innovative product development company and repackaging homemade soda making products for Sodastream.
We have partnered with jewelry artisans like
Lenora Dame and Maximal Art to assemble and
package jewelry sold in Anthropologie stores and
high-end boutique shops. We have collaborated
with non-profits and local governments such as
Operation Warm, packaging nearly 40,000 coats
for children in need, assembling Caln Township’s
quarterly newsletter and packaging educational
tote bags for Health Partners who supplied the
bags to children in the Philadelphia school district.

over 400 individuals each year.

David Scott: Committed to Changing His Life
Three years ago David Scott was home on his couch doing
nothing. Unemployed and collecting Social Security Insurance (SSI) as a result of his disability, David had no desire
to work. That’s when David came to Handi-Crafters at the
encouragement of his outside case manager. David started
out two days a week as he slowly transitioned back into a
work mentality and routine.
David has come a long way in his recovery process since
that time. Today he works five days a week. This past winter he was promoted to a position on our warehouse team
with added responsibilities and expectations. David is thriving. He was recently certified to use the Fork Lift and he is
proactively preparing himself to transition back into competitive employment.
“Handi-Crafters has helped me feel
more confident and better about myself.
I’ve come a long way!”
“My goal is to work for a living,” David explains. “I want to
get off social security.” David is working with Frankie Maxwell, one of our competitive employment specialists, to accomplish this goal. David’s experience working in the warehouse has encouraged him to pursue similar positions at
area businesses. One company he’d like to work for requires its employees to have a high school diploma. So
David, rather than being deterred, started preparing for his
GED. As part of this effort Frankie connected David with a
tutor that he met with regularly to help him prepare for his
test.
“Handi-Crafters has helped me feel more confident and better about myself,” David reflects. “I’ve come a long way!”
This journey of David’s now includes his GED certificate
which he achieved recently. The next stop is competitive
employment, which given David’s motivation, is bound to
happen.
This past
year David
Scott was
promoted
to a position in the
warehouse
where he
was trained
to operate
the forklift.
You don’t have to be wealthy to
change the world.
Your planned gift to Handi-Crafters will leave
your legacy and transform lives!
