THE YEAR IN REVIEW2015 was another busy year for United Way. Spring was an active time as 52 volunteers participated in the Program Review process. These volunteers served on teams that visited our Partner Agencies, toured their facilities, and reviewed their financial records to ensure their programs are being managed effectively and efficiently.

Volunteers in the Loaned Executive Division also kicked off in late Spring and participated in agency tours and hands-on service projects prior to assisting United Way with the Annual Campaign in the Fall.

During the Summer, Partner Agency staff and volunteers participated in a newly revamped Speakers’ Bureau training. The training ensures United Way is represented in the community by the best people to tell our stories.

Fall kicked off the 69th Annual United Way Campaign. With the help of hundreds of volunteers, more money was given than ever before, ensuring that United Way will continue our mission in the Lubbock community of Giving • People • Hope.

Advocacy, Engagement and leadership As part of Child Abuse Awareness Month in April, Carolyn

Simpson, United Way’s Success By 6 Director, continued her work

on the “Go Blue Lubbock” Child Abuse Prevention Campaign. The

goal of the campaign is to raise awareness about the prevalence

of child abuse in our community. At a breakfast event kicking off

the month, volunteers carried in containers filled with 1,303 blue

gum balls. Each gum ball represented one confirmed victim of

child abuse or neglect in Lubbock the previous year.

In November, the United Way hosted a post Legislative Session Briefing focusing on health and human services

and education legislation. Senator Charles Perry, Representative John Frullo, and Representative Dustin

Burrows, briefed the audience on the accomplishments in the Legislative session. Highlights included PreK

funding and the reorganization of the State Health and Human Services Departments.

Community Status Report For 17 years, United Way has produced the Community Status Report, a collaborative

effort sponsored by Covenant Health, the City of Lubbock, Lubbock County, Lubbock

ISD, Texas Tech Health Sciences Center, Texas Tech University, and UMC Health System.

The report has become a way to build awareness and understanding of issues facing

our community. This year’s report highlights school readiness rates for kindergarten

children throughout the region and reiterates the importance of education for all

stages of life. This information will serve as a benchmark for future comparisons. The

report can be viewed online at www.liveunitedlubbock.org/commstatus.shtml.

Collaborations United Way continues to work with and assist a variety of partnerships and collaborative efforts that address

many of the issues that are consistent with our priorities. These include the South Plains Coalition for the

Prevention of Child Abuse, P-20 Closing the Gaps Council, Early Childhood Intervention, free income tax

preparation for low-income families, South Plains Homeless Consortium and the Building Strong Families

Conference.

COMMUNITY IMPACT Lubbock Area United Way works year round in the community to meet needs and empower change. United Way also implements an extensive accountability process for the 23 Community Partners and their 33 programs.

FOCUS ON EDUCATION

Healthy Start, Ready for Schoolchildren who enter kindergarten healthy and ready to learn have a much greater chance of being successful in school.

literacy and Job Skillssuccess For Life creates opportunities for adults to gain the literacy and job skills they need to work and live independently.

Stay on Track, Finish on Tracksuccess in school connects young people with the resources they need to graduate from high school and move on to a bright future.

In 2015 we continued to focus on education and make progress on our

goals of getting children who enter kindergarten healthy and ready to

learn, keeping young people on track with the goal of graduation from

high school ready to enter the workforce or continue with some form of

higher education, and creating opportunities for adults to gain the

literacy and job skills they need to work and live independently. The

Volunteer Center of Lubbock, with United Way funding, continues to grow

the Education Matters program started in 2008. In 2015, seven agencies

participated, logging over 20,963 hours with 547 volunteers.
