Report to the Community

A Message from the PresidentJudith A.M. Smith, DM, President and CEO - HandsOn Jacksonville

Dear Friends and Supporters,

This Report to the Community documents our second year as HandsOn Jacksonville, an identity and business model that has breathed freshness and new life into our 37 year-old organization and our community. We honor and appreciate the old ways, but we have all fully embraced the winds of change!

About one month into our HandsOn identity in 2008, the economic meltdown conspired to change the landscape of the nonprofit world, just as it shook the for-profit world. The environment was filled with imploding industries, and this harsh economic reality

continued without mercy through 2009. Businesses—large and small, for-profit and nonprofit—went beyond belt-tightening and cost-cutting, and many simply closed their doors. People continued to lose jobs at rates unprecedented since the Great Depression, and home foreclo-sures devastated families with mind-numbing intensity. Federal, state, and local government cuts to nonprofit providers went further and deeper, and yet, more people needed the safety nets that our sector provides. Despite these circumstances our message of hope, action and change resonated with our volunteers and our supporters. And with strength of purpose, significant belt-tightening, and full confidence in our path, we again managed in 2009 to finish our fiscal year in the black!

People sometimes ask why we jettisoned a perfectly good organizational name with a spotless reputation, and the simple answer is this: We are doing business in a different way. With our brand change came our changed business model. We still provide referral services for people to serve in volunteer opportunities managed by our partner agencies, and we still provide capacity building activities and resources for volunteers and volunteer resource managers. However, we have fully incorporated the HandsOn project management model into our everyday work, and in doing so we have moved from being an indirect service provider to being a provider of direct service. In addition to driving volunteer traffic to partner agency needs, we work with select partners to create, resource, staff, manage, execute, and evaluate projects involving groups of volunteers—be it a group of two or a group of 200. Some of these projects are open to all community volunteers; some only to specific groups. We focus on three broad areas: education, economy, and environment. Our total number of projects grew from 98 in 2007 to 472 in 2008 and to 682 in 2009. The number of volunteers we managed in these projects grew from 1776 in 2007 to 2960 in 2008 and to 5648 in 2009. In just the first three months of 2010, boosted by our partnership with Disney who sweetened the volunteer pot with park pass incentives, we ushered 10,035 volunteers through our project doors. Equally important to us, the volunteer satisfaction rate in our managed community projects hovers monthly between 96-98%, a far cry from 2009 national research data that reported one in three volunteer’s experience is so bad they vow never to serve again.

We are delighted to present a summary of our successes for your reading pleasure. We are proud of our continued ability to serve the people in our community who care enough to get involved. We also want you to know that one thing has not changed. We hold to our core belief that a successful life includes service to others. It is through people that change happens in our world, and we believe that people can and will make a difference if they are invited into the pro-cess and provided the appropriate tools. This is who we are and what we do! As our commu-nity’s on-ramp for volunteering, we will find a place for you to serve and grow. Please join us as we harness the passion, skills, and energy of people to solve problems and create new realities.

Be the change. Change your world as you change yourself.

WE INSPIRE people to serve and embrace their abilities to be the change through our multimedia outreach and our annual Cel-ebration of Service. Each April, the nation celebrates National Volunteer Week. In Jacksonville, our mayor proclaims the entire month of April as Volunteer Appreciation Month, as does Florida’s governor across the state.

lllCelebration of ServicelllDuring the month of April, HandsOn Jacksonville holds one of our premier events, Celebration of Service, to honor our community’s most outstanding agents of change and promote their their good works to inspire others to follow their lead. This black-tie event takes place at the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts, with the VIP reception in the Uible marquee overlooking the river. Volunteers are recog-nized in a spectacular on-stage with an inspirational video production. The VIP reception includes both a silent and spirited live auction and live entertainment. Many of the city’s most prestigious restaurants volunteer an abundance of delicacies and the well-dressed guests drift from one to the other, sampling a veritable feast.

lllCommunity OutreachlllAll year long, HandsOn Jacksonville promotes and encourages people to be the change. We provide opportunities to make a difference in our community. Through our inspirational bi-monthly Florida Times-Union Voices column; our monthly e-newsletter; meeting the commu-nity through booths at corporate and volunteer events; our handsonjacksonville.org website and utilizing social networking opportunities such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, we spread the word and make it easy for people to take action that transforms our community and themselves.

According to the 2009 JCCI Quality of Life Progress Report, an amazing 64% of our citizens reported that they volunteered, up from 59% in 2008; based on this data and our population of 1.3 million, an estimated 832,000 people volunteered in 2009, calculating one hour per month for 75% of the volunteers and 7 hours per week for 25%, the value of area volunteer work is estimated at $1.68 billion

WE MOBILIZE people to take action and make a positive impact on our community. HandsOn Jacksonville is the on-ramp for volunteering on the First Coast. We believe that it is through people that change happens in the world and we are committed to making it as easy and convenient as possible for people to get connected.

With our partner agencies we create and manage projects that allow people the opportunity to make a positive impact on Jacksonville’s key problem areas. We offer a continuously updated interactive volunteer-matching website where people can select opportunities that are just right for them. Our project leaders take care of all of the details from there, from driving directions and checking off the supply list to where to park, and keep volunteers informed every step of the way. We also work with civic, church, youth, and employee volunteer groups to develop and implement community service projects.

lllA Visit from Saint NicholaslllOn the first Friday morning in December, thousands of children in select elementary schools arrive to find their doors and hallways covered in gold tinsel. As they enter their classrooms, curiosity turns to sheer excitement. At each desk is a colorful backpack filled with books and toys. For many of the children, these are the only books they will have in their homes. Volunteers visit each classroom to read the story that celebrates the life of Nicholas, a boy based on a European tradition that celebrates anonymous giving. The highlight of the day is a special visit paid to each classroom by a real-life Saint Nicholas who greets the students and presents them with “kindness coins”. This program which promotes literacy is taken to schools where 70% or more of the children are on a free or subsidized lunch plan.

WE EQUIP people by providing service opportunities, building capacity and providing support services for individuals and organi-zations that need or provide volunteer resources. HandsOn Jacksonville equips people to be the positive change our city needs through its training and support of nonprofit agencies in the effective use of their volunteer resources, training of diverse groups of leaders to effec-tively serve on nonprofit boards of directors, and consulting with groups on board leadership. HandsOn Jacksonville also educates people in the staffing and operation of a Volunteer Reception Center to manage unaffiliated volunteers during a disaster, and we raise funds and provide programming to supply low-income families and schools with necessities

lllBlueprint for LeadershiplllBlueprint for Leadership is a program designed to identify, recruit, train and place community leaders on nonprofit boards and other governing or advisory bodies in Jacksonville. Blueprint for Leadership participants are a diverse representation of our popu-lation, with the majority of the class representing those in the minority.

Blueprint for Leadership offers five full-day training sessions involving leadership topics, class discussion and group exercises. These classes are held the first Wednesday of each month, January through May. In June, the class creates and executes its own volunteer project and celebrates its success at a graduation ceremony. Following graduation, each participant is given the oppor-tunity to experience an effective nonprofit board in action through a one-year internship, or intern with HandsOn Jacksonville as a High-Impact Project Leader.

HandsOn Jacksonville also conducts The Roles and Responsibilities of Nonprofit Boards workshop to equip people to effectively serve on nonprofit boards and offers an individualized board consultation service.

lllDisaster ProgramlllIn the event of a major disaster, volunteers do come running to help. What they do and how they are utilized has tremendous im-pact on how quickly and effectively the community recovers. HandsOn Jacksonville has developed and tested a plan to effectively manage volunteers who are unaffiliated with local response organizations. With the help of a City of Jacksonville Public Service Grant, HandsOn Jacksonville will activate a Volunteer Reception Center to help ensure that the skills and talents of these volun-teers are matched to areas of critical need.

lllThe Hope FundlllThe Hope Fund is a collaborative effort between HandsOn Jacksonville, The University of North Florida and The Florida Times-Union. Participating agencies provide information on the circumstances and special needs of selected clients and UNF journalism students write articles about these clients and their particular situations that run as front-page features in The Florida Times-Union between Thanksgiving and Christmas. The Florida Times-Union also offers editorial commentary telling readers how they can support the Hope Fund with contributions. One hundred percent of all Hope Fund donations are divided among the participating organizations that then purchase goods and services as needed.

lllNonprofit MembershiplllHandsOn Jacksonville offers the following services to our nonprofit members…

Volunteer Project Management: We help create and completely manage volunteer service projects designed to achieve the mis-sion of nonprofit members.

HandsOn Technology (HOT): We train and support nonprofit staff in the use of our web-based volunteer recruitment and man-agement tool, which helps them recruit and manage volunteers, as well as giving them an additional web presence to market their organizations.

Volunteer Management Training Series: Through our comprehensive, state-approved and certified volunteer management series, we provide nonprofit volunteer management professionals the tools they need to maximize the efforts of their organization’s vol-unteers.

About The Human Race: In partnership with 1st Place Sports and The RITA Foundation, we offer nonprofit agencies the opportu-nity to participate in this 5K walk/run fund raiser each spring and fall.

About Fazzini’s Coffee & Tea Fund raiser: We have partnered with Fazzini’s Coffee & Tea to provide an opportunity for nonprofit agencies to raise residual income when supporters purchase these products under their accounts.

Our 2009 Impact on the Community

We support and increase the capacity of organizations in two essential ways. We work with volunteer resource managers in nonprofit and government agencies to enable them to more effectively lead their volunteer work force, and we work with people who manage employee volunteer programs in organizations that provide volunteer power to the community. We also provided learning opportunities to individuals, empowering them to lead through service.
