TUMBLEWEED CENTER FOR YOUTH DEVELOPMENT
ANNUAL REPORT 2010
WELCOME
Dear Friends of Tumbleweed,
As Tumbleweed Center for Youth Development completes our 35th
year of providing a safety net for the at-risk, runaway, and homeless youth in our Community, we celebrate one of our most inspirational years amidst a host of challenges presented by a daunting
financial climate.
Like everyone else in Arizona we have watched as the economy
continued to spin into a state of emergency. We had made all the
adjustments to programs that could be made and finally more serious measures were required. Benefits were reduced, positions were
eliminated and we reduced an already thin management support
structure to historical low levels of 6% of our operating budget for
“general and administrative” and 4% for fundraising, down from
10% & 5% respectively the previous year.
The turnaround was dramatic, from a midyear projected potential
loss of more than $200,000 for the year ending June 30, 2010,
to an actual small gain of $8,030. Not only did the measures
noted above help in this turnaround, but the community stepped
forward in many ways. As an example, Tumbleweed was once again
the recipient of grant from the United Way lead “Funding Collaborative” of grant givers who came together to fund organizations
that address the most basic survival needs of people. The Funders
shared their collective knowledge of the community to select organizations that could make a difference immediately and without
any time-consuming application processes. Fundraising remained
down only slightly, and was supported by many corporate grants
such as Scottsdale Insurance’s parent company Nationwide Insurance Co providing a significant grant for the first time. Certainly
many other gifts and grants were received from caregivers like you,
to make this turnaround possible.
Through all these challenges our employees continued to serve
47% more than last year, and still assisted youth in accomplishing wonderful outcomes. If you visit with a former Tumbleweed
Client, like the five (5) featured on the video during our Annual
Dinner Auction this year, you quickly understand the value of
Tumbleweed to the Community. Youth will tell you they were on a
path to self-destruction and became healthy productive members
of the community as a result of their experiences with Tumbleweed. These five young people “re-discovered” Tumbleweed on our
Agency Facebook page, and asked what they could do to help. We
are proud they were willing to share their stories.
I continue to be inspired by the youth, staff, volunteers and supporters of Tumbleweed as they demonstrate over and over that our
community is one that cares for and supports young people in a
way that allows them to soar to new heights of self-sufficiency and
enhanced self-esteem.
ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW
Tumbleweed Center for Youth Development is a non-profit agency founded in 1972 by several civic organizations to provide emergency
shelter and services for runaway youth. Our mission is to serve abused, abandoned, troubled and neglected youth. Our goals are to assist
these youth in 1) understanding and achieving their individual potential, 2) increasing their personal and social skills, and 3) creating
the opportunity for them to become self-directed, socially responsible, and productive citizens.
The Youth Crisis Shelter opened in 1975; a short-term crisis intervention program for homeless and runaway youth ages 9 to 18. This
program provides the only emergency shelter for non-system youth in Maricopa County. Our services expanded in 1980 to include a
detention alternative group home for boys, and in 1986 independent living for homeless youth was added. In 1990 we began street
outreach services for homeless youth living on the streets. We now have more than a dozen direct services programs that provide a continuum of care for over 3,000 homeless, conduct disordered, abused, abandoned, neglected, and at-risk youth annually, ages 9 to 22.
Our most current project, began in 2004, developing group home unification services for Homeland Security’s Office of Refugee Resettlement for Unaccompanied Minors.

This year was challenging in recovering from the economic downturn of 2008 & 2009 while responding to an increase in service needs to
homeless & runaway youth with limited funding. Ending cash & equivalents represented 18 days cash-on-hand and our ability to draw down
funds from federal “lines of credit” against awards in advance of 3 days of need minimizes an otherwise 30-45 day measurement in comparison
to expected standards. (Tumbleweed receives 82% of its support from federal sources.) Other current assets include a work-in-progress
renovation on our Young Adult Program of $437,000 time-forgiveness award upon completion. Of our total private contributions, 27% of our
contributions come from foundation support, with the remaining 73% primarily from individual and other charities & religious giving. Corporate
support is reflected primarily through sponsorships of fundraising events such as our annual Pathways to Hope and Links-to-Youth Golf events.
Of our in-kind support, 36% comes from individual giving in hours and donated goods, 25% through donated medical services to our clients,
and 39% through our collaboration in the Learning Center with Maricopa County Regional School District. Our agency spending mix is 90%
to program services, 6% to general & administrative and 4% to fundraising. Cost reductions occurred through the closure of our communitybased referral and outpatient programming due to state budget deficits, and cost containment practices through salary freezes, reductions in
leave benefits, communication costs, consultants, and event production expenses, as well as staff reductions in general & administrative areas.
Net surplus for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 was $8,038.

SERVICES:
YOUTH DEVELOPMENT:
When a youth enters one of our programs, our staff meets with
them, in partnership to develop a case plan to follow during
their stay. The plan determines what their immediate needs are,
what services they may need, and goals they have set. During
their stay, youth may access the Learning Center for tutoring
and other services, join the Youth Advisory Board, and participate in other agency activities. They may also benefit from other
services listed below.
Youth Development: The positive youth development approach
promoted by Tumbleweed Center for Youth Development puts
forth that helping young people to achieve their full potential is
the best way to prevent them from engaging in risky behaviors.
When youth have the chance to develop caring relationships, have
high expectations for participation, they gain self confidence, trust
and practical knowledge that helps them grow into healthy, selfsufficient adults.
