Spring, 2012

Dear Friends, The Volunteer Center of Bergen County tells an impressive tale during the past year of innovative practices with substantive results. Focused entirely in the arena of civic engagement, we take pride not only in delivering programs of the highest quality, but also in assessing outcomes and incorporating fresh approaches to make our programs as effective as possible. While the economy continued to languish, our programs and activities generated support equal (almost) to the task. Our mission is to strengthen the community by connecting people with opportunities to serve, building capacity for effective volunteering, operating direct service volunteer programs, and participating in strategic partnerships that meet community needs. One of our proudest accomplishments is having been designated as an Innovation Hub by HandsOn Network, our national affiliate partner. We are one of ten affiliates* considered to be a learning lab for community involvement capable of driving innovation, building strong leadership and advancing volunteer engagement through existing and acquired skills and knowledge. With funding provided by HandsOn Network, we will be developing and implementing programs to advance leadership and volunteerism in Bergen County in the months ahead. Here are highlights of our mission-driven activities that are described in the following pages: CONNECTING: We launched a new cloud-based searchable database of agencies and their volunteer opportunities and have so far seen approximately 14,000 page views every month. The database was developed by HandsOn Network, our national affiliate partner; We facilitated engagement of 2,643 individuals and 150 groups in volunteer activities through direct consultation and referral. We published the well-regarded Guide to Volunteering and distributed hundreds of copies free of charge to schools and libraries. We significantly upgraded our website and stepped up our presence on social networking sites and in our blog. RSVP helped 300 seniors respond to community needs through positions at 48 volunteer stations. Our All Wrapped Up holiday giving program linked more than 700 volunteer donors from the community with 4,000 people in need (881 individuals and 800 families) to fulfill wish list requests provided by 50 local agencies.

BUILDING CAPACITY: Our Nonprofit Training & Resource Institute provided 450 participants with training in various aspects of volunteer management and Board development. We launched BoardLink to train Bergen LEADS graduates as well as people from the community in the roles and responsibilities of serving on nonprofit boards. Members of the Business Volunteer Council of Northern New Jersey gained professional development skills in corporate volunteer program management to boost involvement of their employees in volunteer activities.

Other iHub affiliates include New York Cares, Boston Cares, Chicago Cares, HandsOn Central Ohio, HandsOn Greater Portland, HandsOn Twin Cities, Seattle Works, Volunteer Center of Santa Cruz County and the Marin Center for Volunteer and Nonprofit Leadership.

DIRECT SERVICE: 50 volunteers with our Chore Service performed 4,489 home repairs that helped to keep 1,846 senior and/ or disabled clients living independently and safely in their homes. Our two Mentoring Programs trained, screened, matched and supported caring mentors in one-on-one mentoring relationships. Mentoring Youth: adult volunteers helped 118 youth with social, emotional or behavioral challenges see and take steps toward a brighter future. Mentoring Moms adult women volunteers helped 84 overwhelmed, low-income mothers struggling to sustain their families. Our Bergen LEADS civic leadership program engaged 30 aspiring leaders in monthly seminars on topics of critical concern while building their leadership skills and instilling a sense of trusteeship for our community. Many of the 100+ Bergen LEADS alumni have become deeply engaged volunteers: serving on boards, running for office (and winning!), starting nonprofits, and advocating for causes throughout our community. Our Business Volunteer Council participated in several strategic initiatives that helped low-income families and children: 12 companies collected nearly 5,000 new books and distributed them to pre-school children; nearly 60 BVC volunteers read to children in schools. 7 companies collected food and nearly $9,000 in cash to provide healthy meals for children who receive subsidized meals during the school year but not during the summer. 6 companies helped to build community gardens in partnership with four nonprofit partners. 6 companies collected nearly $20,000 in school supplies distributed to youth-serving organizations. The BVC hosted a Back-to-School fair in the fall and a Big Book Give-Away in the spring to benefit families in our mentoring programs. STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS In the wake of Hurricane Irene, we put our leadership of the Bergen County VOAD into full operation, forming a Long Term Recovery Group with leaders of several partner agencies to assist our neighbors still in need of assistance. Our Bergen LEADS program explored feasibility of taking over sponsorship of luncheons in months with a fifth Friday. Bergen LEADS Fifth Fridays are set to begin in March 2012, bringing together leaders across the county to network and learn about a topic ripped form the headlines. We celebrated National Volunteer Month with our annual Celebrate Volunteers event, during which we lauded the efforts of 300 volunteers from 40 partner agencies. We hosted a 45th Anniversary Gala -- With a Little Help from Our Friends -- honoring four Heart of Gold designees, featuring a fabulous Beatles cover band, and generating $85,000 in net proceeds. Our staff serves on Boards and/or as advisors to 29 organizations in our community. In addition to the Innovation Hub initiative, we worked closely with our national affiliate partner, HandsOn Network. Staff leaders were engaged in HONs Corporate Volunteer Council Advisory Council, Affiliate Membership Committee, Affiliate Standards Committee, Generation On Task Force, Points of Light Youth Leadership Institute Task Force, and Global Service Task Force.

These impressive accomplishments are possible only because of the dedicated volunteers who give freely of themselves to make our community a better place in which to live, work and go to school; distinguished leaders across our community who provide guidance as members of our program advisory councils; our highly competent staff, skilled in program management and community outreach; and especially - our donors: the individuals, corporations, foundations, civic groups and government agencies who believe in what we do and dedicate resources to make our work possible. While are pleased to express our thanks to all of those who have made our work possible during the past year, we look with eager anticipation to your continued support and involvement in the months ahead.

Community Volunteer Services

Our Community Volunteer Services department delivers a mission-critical service: connecting prospective volunteers with opportunities to serve. Committed to supporting volunteerism and civic participation, we provide information, consultation and referral to individuals and groups including schools, businesses (see page 6), organizations and communities of faith. We offer two helpful resources to assist those interested in volunteering in or near Bergen County: the printed Guide to Volunteering and our website at www.bergenvolunteers.org.

Website: www.bergenvolunteers.org Blog: www.bergenvolunteers.blogspot.com facebook.com/bergenvolunteers twitter.com/#!/bcvolunteers

Youth Services
Throughout the year we provided consultation to schools and agencies in the area of youth volunteering and service learning. We provided customized trainings on team building and leadership development surrounding student service to the community.

Youth Leadership Institute

In November, the Volunteer Center hosted a Youth Leadership Institute for 17 Bergen County students in grades 8 -10. For two full days the students were immersed in activities that explored leadership styles, team work, community mapping, stewardship and development of service projects. The students worked hard and, yes, played hard as part of this energetic program designed specifically to spark in young people the desire to make a difference while providing them with the skills they will need to do just that.

Web Presence
Our website contains important information about programs and services of the Volunteer Center of Bergen County and provides a comprehensive database of volunteer opportunities at non-profit agencies in and near Bergen County. This valuable resource is updated on a regular basis and allows prospective volunteers and groups to refine their search by keyword, location and area of interest. Visitors can also find links to numerous online resources relevant to volunteering, civic engagement and community stewardship. Last summer we launched a vastly improved website that incorporated a new database developed by our national affiliate partner, HandsOn Network. Easy to navigate and to read, the website is designed to appeal to a range of volunteer audiences. The database lists 300 agencies and 800 volunteer positions, allows more interaction between prospective volunteers and agencies, and provides easier, more comprehensive reporting. Nearly 165,000 searches for volunteer opportunities hit last year, and more than 700 new volunteers registered on our site in the last 6 months of 2011. Social networking is a priority in our communications, and we keep an active presence on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and other social networking sites. Our blog is found at www.bergenvolunteers.blogspot.com

Guide to Volunteering
The Guide to Volunteering is a vital tool linking people who want to volunteer with places in our community where their help is needed. The Guide provides information about a variety of specific volunteer positions at hundreds of public and private agencies as well as ideas and how-tos about group projects, student project ideas and organizing collections as well as lists of online resources. The guide is thoroughly cross-referenced by type of activity, geographic location, area of interest, and suitability for students, groups, families, evening/weekend preference, or at-home volunteer assignments. The 136-page book was printed by a generous local corporation and was distributed free of charge to schools and libraries early in 2010. The Guide is also available as a downloadable PDF on our home page at www.bergenvolunteers.org.

BergenVolunTEENS
Bergen VolunTEENS is a special web presence that provides students, educators, parents and community-based youth advisors with information about volunteering. In addition to helping to link students with volunteer jobs during the school year as well as in the summertime, BergenVolunTEENS highlights the service activities of students, schools, and youth-based organizations across Bergen County.

Agency Services
We consult frequently with non-profit agencies, helping them further their missions through effective engagement of volunteers. We help agencies define their opportunities for volunteer involvement and encourage them to list their volunteer positions in our online searchable database and in the Guide to Volunteering. We promote volunteer management training and we encourage agencies to welcome volunteers students, families and individuals who are only available for evening and weekend placements. We also participated in various volunteer fairs at corporations, schools and community venues and provided informational programs about volunteering for agencies volunteers as well as their clients. In 2011 we began to host regular Volunteer Managers Roundtables every other month. Volunteer managers, directors and coordinators meet over lunch to discuss issues facing volunteer managers, voice concerns, and share information and insight with one another. These gatherings provide networking and information that builds stronger, more effective programs. We continue to reach out to the community, education and faith-based based organizations (see box at right) to encourage their use of the Volunteer Center as a helpful resource.

Volunteer Recognition
We are committed not only to encouraging people to volunteer, but also to recognize the individuals, groups and organizations that step up to make a difference in our community. Celebrate Volunteers, our annual community volunteer recognition event was held on April 16, 2011, at the John Greico Auditorium in Hackensack. Brenda Blackmon, MY9News Anchor, served as our emcee, and Bergen County Executive Kathleen Donovan was on hand to honor the volunteers. Guests tapped and sang along with the Bergen Academies cast of 42nd Street, the schools Spring musical. More that 250 volunteers were given a public salute for their selfless efforts; each received certificates, commendations and small tokens of our appreciate for all of their good work. Major sponsors for the 2011 Celebrate Volunteers event were Dassault Falcon Jet, Lakeland Bank, Sony Electronics and TD Bank. Volunteers from the following agencies were honored at the event. Bergens Promise The Buckingham of Norwood Care and Rehab Center Call Us Clowns Charles DeWolf Middle School, Old Tappan The Diabetes Foundation DIAL Inc. Habitat for Humanity Hackensack University Medical Center The Municipal Alliance to Prevent Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Pony Power Therapies RSVP Sharing the Arts Shelter Our Sisters Taking Strides Against Mental Illness Visiting Homemaker Home Health Aide Service of Bergen County Volunteer Center/Bergen Mentors Mentoring Moms Mentoring Youth The Valley Hospital YMCA of Great Bergen County

Connecting Nationally Ready to Respond

The Volunteer Center continues to lead the Bergen County VOAD (Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster) to enhance communication with first responding organizations, nonprofit agencies and communities of faith in preparing for and responding to disasters. We also participate in the New Jersey VOAD and participate on the Hands On Networks Disaster Volunteerism Task Force which helps affiliate organizations respond to disasters. We continue to play a role in convening service providers and marshaling resources to help our neighbors who were devastated by the effects of Hurricane Irene. This is a long-term process that will extend for several months. We are an affiliate of Points of Light Institute/HandsOn Network, and we are signed on with several technologydriven initiatives that are promoted regionally and nationally, making it as easy as possible for people anywhere in the country to find ways to volunteer: www.handsonnetwork.org www.allforgood.org a platform to find and share service opportunities across the web www.serve.gov sponsored by The White House www.generationON.org great resource for kids, teens, teachers, parents and families www.volunteermatch.org sponsored by VolunteerMatch

www.nnjbvc.org
In 2011, the 30 corporate members of the Northern New Jersey Business Volunteer Council (BVC) had cause to celebrate major accomplishments. The BVC marked its 11 years of service with an anniversary party. Since its founding, the BVC has grown from four member companies and has generated more than $1.2 million in resources for low-income children and families. The BVC addresses three critical areas of need literacy, hunger, and education through a series of annual initiatives:

9 BVC companies and 3 community groups participated in Books in a Bag, an initiative designed to promote early childhood and family literacy, with over 4,600 total books distributed. Sixty employee volunteers representing four companies kicked off the event reading to children in local preschool programs and schools. Nearly 500 preschoolers were provided with backpacks filled with new books which were collected and distributed by employees from six employee volunteer programs. Six companies and three community groups donated almost 2,000 books to the Mentor BIG Book Giveaway, a free book fair in April for participants in the Volunteer Centers mentoring programs. 7 BVC companies participated in Brown Bag Buddies, a summer food drive benefiting children who receive free or reduced-cost breakfast and lunch at school during the school year and whose families need extra assistance during summer vacation. Volunteers started in May and continued the effort through August, collecting more than $8,000 in kid-friendly food and cash, which was distributed to food pantries throughout Bergen County. 6 BVC member companies helped to launch the BVCs innovative Community Food Garden program, installing four beds to provide food for needy kids and families. Through this initiative, the BVC is helping to increase access to fresh food and to promote healthy eating. 6 BVC member companies and other groups participated in Tools for School, collecting school supplies valued at over $19,000. The supplies were donated to BVC partners and other non-profit organizations, which distributed them to individual children and schools throughout the state.

A primary purpose of the BVC is to advance the practice of corporate community involvement and promote professional development of employee volunteer program managers. Condensed trainings are offered at BVC monthly meetings on such topics as developing relationships with non-profit organizations, marketing, and volunteer project management. Monthly meetings also provide companies with the opportunity to network with other corporate volunteer managers as well as representatives from non-profit agencies. The BVC is supported through membership fees and sponsorships. Administrative support is provided by staff in the Volunteer Centers Business Volunteer Services department, which also provides consulting and expertise to companies interested in creating or expanding employee volunteer initiatives.

The Volunteer Center is widely recognized for the excellence of its mentoring programs, Volunteers in these programs are committed, caring men and women who become integral to the lives of the people they mentor. In addition to being encouraging friends and role models, mentors often are advocates, acting as liaisons between the families and the school; helping families obtain food, housing, jobs/career training and health insurance; and, most importantly, helping the people they are mentoring recognize their potential, access resources and build upon their own strengths to see and achieve a brighter future. Our mentoring programs are valued partners with many agencies in Bergen County, providing services and resources that simply are not available anywhere else. One reason for our success is the care and diligence we invest in training mentors. Each mentor must complete a 15-hour training course specific to the program they choose to enter; each must also successfully pass rigorous screening procedures, including fingerprint and background checks, written references and personal interviews. Our mentoring program staff leaders are frequent participants on panels, presenters at seminars, and consultants to other agencies regarding mentor recruitment, training, screening and supervision. They are recognized not only for their commitment but also for their success in connecting children, teens and adults with caring volunteer mentors.

Mentoring Moms
Since 1995 Mentoring Moms has trained and supported adult women who volunteer to help mothers striving to become better parents while dealing with the challenges of daily living. Mothers are referred to the program from local child welfare and protective service agencies and other community programs. While each family dynamic varies, nearly all are single mothers who lack an effective network of support to help them deal with the ongoing responsibilities of parenting, life and family issues. Mentoring Moms volunteers provide mothers with informal emotional and practical supports in an effort to strengthen the mothers ability to parent effectively. Whether advocating on behalf of a mother as she navigates the complex and sometimes confusing world of community resources or spending a few hours listening and lending a shoulder to lean on, our mentors help mothers work through their challenges and face the everyday tasks that all families must deal with to survive and thrive. In 2011, the Mentoring Moms program initiated 27 new matches and supported 53 ongoing matches between mentors and mothers. In addition to supervising matches, the Mentoring Moms staff organized a number of activities to supplement the mentoring relationship:

High Marks for Mentoring Moms

Every year we evaluate our programs. The July 2011 evaluation showed that over 90% of the mothers surveyed felt their mentors had made a difference in their lives and noted an improvement coping with challenges and managing stress. In addition, over 80% of the mothers noted an improvement in managing the healthcare and educational needs of their children. Below are some comments by mothers being mentored: My mentor has helped so much in my life and has been that person I can trust and seek advice. Thank you so much, I have noticed many improvements in my life with her around. I dont know where I would be with out her! I dont know what I would do without my mentors gentle pushing and friendship. I cant describe how much she has helped. My mentor is a godsend to me. I dont know what I would do without her. I want to say thank you for giving me the mentor you picked out for me. My mentor is a wonderful person and she is an inspiration and good role model. My mentor is a wonderful person and helps me with a lot of things. She is like a second mom. I share all of my feelings with her. I am glad I have my mentor in my life!

Mentor Refreshers, meetings for mentors to share challenges and successes; Special events, such as Family Holiday Breakfast, Moms One Day Shop with gently used clothing and household donations, Family Makeover Event at Parisian Beauty Academy, Mentors and Mothers Celebration Brunch, Mentor/Family Picnic, FREE Big Book Giveaway, Financial Literacy workshop and an evening with Reflections, an improvisational theatre program for teens and adults. Back to School evening for parents and children in both Mentoring Moms and Mentoring Youth. Parents were given the opportunity to attend a variety of workshops including, Preparing Students for College, Parents Rights in Special Education, and Tips to Help Children Succeed in School and new backpacks and school supplies were distributed to all families.

Each of these activities is possible through the generous support of sponsors and volunteers from corporations, civic and religious groups, and student organizations. Their efforts help the mothers we mentor become more successful moms. Page 8

Trained and caring mentors help their mentees see and take steps toward a brighter future. Mentoring Moms help overwhelmed mothers; Mentoring Youth volunteers help kids who have experi4enced abuse, neglect or isolation.

Mentoring Youth
Founded in 1977, the Mentoring Youth program has screened, trained and managed well over 3,200 volunteer mentors. The program has facilitated a high rate of successful mentoring matches between caring adult volunteers and a diverse group of children with social, emotional and behavioral challenges throughout Bergen County. MENTORING YOUTH volunteers:

Provide friendship, support, and guidance in one-on-one mentoring relationships Share weekly educational, recreational and social experiences with the child s/he is mentoring Reinforce positive behavior and provide guidance for achieving educational and personal goals Help children identify and build upon their own strengths and assets, thus promoting personal growth and enhancing self esteem Help children see and achieve a brighter future through unconditional support, friendship and guidance In 2011, Mentoring Youth restructured to focus its resources on children and youth it is best able to serve, thereby reducing the numbers of children on the waiting list from 60 to 22. The program initiated 40 new matches and managed an average of 78 mentoring matches throughout the year. In addition to supervising mentoring relationships, staff organized numerous activities designed to enhance the mentoring relationship: a mentor recognition breakfast during National Mentoring Month in January; a picnic hosted by the Allendale Middle School 8th grade in June; Bronx Zoo trip in October; and annual Halloween and Holiday parties. Eight families from the Mentoring Youth program were adopted for the holidays (three through the Volunteer Centers All Wrapped Up program and five through Giants of Generosity), ensuring a wonderful supply of toys and other needed items. The program also hosted quarterly Refreshers to support, encourage and advise mentors on issues related to their matches with children/youth. Mentoring Youth benefited from the generous support of many corporations and organizations throughout 2011. Individuals and corporations supported the Bronx Zoo trip. The Saddle Brook VFW, Inserra Supermarkets, Benjamin Moore and Hunter Douglas made significant contributions to the Halloween and Holiday parties. The NY Red Bulls and other groups provided free or reduced-cost admission to programs enjoyed by kids and mentors, and numerous individuals and companies donated services and gifts. Students from Business Leaders of Tomorrowa Fairleigh Dickinson University organizationprovided exuberant help at the Halloween and Holiday Parties. The quality and quantity of these resources are indicative of tremendous community support for children in our community. We are continually grateful for the demonstrations of care and concern for the health, happiness, and well-being of the youth we serve.

Mentoring Youth Success

At age 84, Sarah is the most senior volunteer in the Mentoring Youth program. However, if you didnt know that, it would be hard to tell. Shes mentoring two nine-year-old girls (Samantha and Kirsten) and consistently meets with each every week, ensuring that each girls needs are met. She also arranges for the three of them to spend time together at least twice each month, and this has led to a wonderful friendship between the two girls. Both girls have difficult family lives, and Sarah helps them cope with issues at home and at school. For Kirsten, reading is a challenge, so Sarah reviews Kirstens homework with her whenever possible and provides books and other review materials to study when they are together. For Samantha, the challenge is a parent with mental health issues. She longs to be more helpful around the house to make life easier for her mom, so Sarah is teaching her to cook and bake. When Samantha wanted to learn how to play Happy Birthday for her mother on her school-issued recorder, Sarah took her to a 90-year-old friend (and former music teacher) for lessons. Both girls speak with such enthusiasm about the wonderful explorations and lessons with their friend and mentor, Sarah. Whats a 75-year age difference between friends!

CHORE SERVICE
The Chore Service is comprised of 40 dedicated senior volunteers and three paid drivers who provide minor home repairs that keep the elderly and people with disabilities safe in their own homes. Chore performs the minor but essential repairs that our clients can neither do themselves nor get anyone else to do for them. For many, Chore can mean the difference between independence and institutionalization.

Love Letters
from Chore Clients
As the volunteers moved about, they completed not only the jobs I had asked for, but other needed work they noticed. All gentlemen were pleasant, capable and eager to give. Chore Service has a well-deserved reputation. Chores office staff is patient, kind and efficient. They sent us three very nice volunteers who installed grab bars in the bathroom. I am very relieved to take my shower in safety.

I cant thank you enough. Im on a fixed income, In 2011, Chore volunteers provided 8,383 hours of service, made 1,715 so the repairs they made to my faucet and toilet service calls for 1,846 senior or disabled clients, and completed 4,180 saved me a lot of money. I am very grateful. household repairs. Chore has three vans with 15 crews that are on the road every workday throughout the year. With the population of frail and elderly persons increasing, the need for safety modifications in the homegrab bars, hand rails, proper lightinghas increased. Several volunteers work two or more shifts a week to make sure our clients are safe. Chore volunteers are often the only visitors a client may have for a long period of time, and their kindness and generosity are inspiring. Chore does not require income eligibility and there is no charge for the service, except for materials necessary to complete the repairs. In addition to home repairs, Chore collaborates with other agencies serving the homebound by providing outreach and referrals for those in need of other services. Chore receives funding from the B.C. Div. of Senior Services, B.C. Community Development, Community Chest of Englewood, and private contributions.

RSVP

Sponsored by the Corporation for National and Community Service, RSVP helps people age 55+ respond to important needs in our community. RSVP works diligently to put the time, talents, knowledge and life experience of older adults to work at a broad range of qualified volunteer stations throughout Bergen County. In addition to the reward of helping other people and many causes, volunteers earn public recognition at a variety of events throughout the year as part of a large, national movement. Every volunteer is also entitled to supplemental accident and medical RSVP/CASA Volunteers insurance while volunteering. RSVP is pleased to count CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) as one of the agencies where seniors are acDuring 2011, RSVP tively involved.

Phil says that volunteering with CASA "has its ups and downs, pain and pleasures, but it is wonderful and satisfying when you see the impact that volunteers can have on childrens lives." RSVP volunteers realize a tremendous sense of value and gratification in using their skills and valuable time to meet the real needs in our community. Through RSVP, active and engaged volunteers have the opportunity to turn a lifetime of experience into the experience of a lifetime!

Training
In 2011, the Volunteer Centers Non-Profit Training and Resource Center continued to provide a roster of trainings primarily to benefit nonprofit organizations in our community. Part of the Volunteer Centers mission is to strengthen the capacity of non-profit organizations, and one of the most effective ways to do that is through timely, relevant training programs. Our Non-Profit Training Program offered 15 classes that were presented to 239 participants, including board members, executive directors, staff members and volunteers. Topics ranged from volunteer program management to fundraising to leadership development. Two of the courses were offered under the Neighbor Academy program, a series of free, introductory courses specifically geared toward small and start-up non-profits and other community groups. In 2011, on-site trainings were provided to 211 participants from non-profit organizations and other community groups in the subjects of board roles and responsibilities, volunteer management, and corporate volunteering.

Volunteer Center History

The mission of the Volunteer Center of Bergen County is to strengthen the community by connecting people with opportunities to serve, operating direct service volunteer programs, building capacity for effective volunteering, and participating in strategic partnerships that meet community needs.

(current programs are highlighted in bold type) The Volunteer Center of Bergen County was founded in 1966 by the Junior League of Bergen County and a group of concerned residents who saw the need for a clearinghouse matching prospective volunteers with agencies that needed their help. This continues as a key service and is the primary concern of our Community Volunteer Services department. In 1972, the Center began sponsorship of the Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), which became an independent agency for 20-plus years but returned to sponsorship by the Volunteer Center in 2002. In 1977, the Chore Service was initiated with senior volunteer handymen/women providing minor household repairs for the elderly and/or disabled. The next year, in collaboration with the Division of Youth and Family Services, we took over management of Volunteers in Protective Services (VIPS), a program in which trained and caring adults provide guidance to children who have suffered abuse, neglect or extreme isolation. The programs name was changed to Mentoring Youth in 2010. Both Chore and Mentoring Youth have provided service continually and are going strong today. In the late 1970s, again in collaboration with the Junior League, we established DOVIA (Directors of Volunteers in Agencies), an educational and networking organization for volunteer directors. This group became DOVIA of Bergen and Passaic Counties in 1996. In 1996 we launched the Bergen Bike Tour, which is organized by CPAs, banking and corporate leaders with proceeds shared between the Volunteer Center and Tomorrows Children's Fund at Hackensack University Medical Center. In 1997 we instituted a formal partnership agreement with Bergen County's United Way, in which our two organizations collaborate closely to provide volunteer services to the general community and to businesses of all sizes. In 1998 we began joint sponsorship of the Bergen County Golf Classic. Volunteers from the Workplace was established in 1981 when executives from several companies requested assistance in involving their employees in service activities. Corporate volunteering has been a key activity of the VCBC since then. In 2000, in partnership with several companies and Bergen Countys United Way, we launched the Northern New Jersey Business Volunteer Council, with a strategic focus on mobilizing companies and their employees to meet the needs of children and families. The BVC currently has 30 dues-paying member companies. The BVC and other corporate community involvement efforts are managed by the Volunteer Centers Business Volunteer Services department. In 1987, Volunteer Ventures was formed to develop evening and weekend group volunteer projects targeted to busy adults with limited time availability. Volunteer Ventures was phased Page 12 out as an ongoing program in 2009. However, we continue to refer volunteers seeking involvement in short-term episodic volunteer projects to activities at partner agencies across the community. In 1994 we became custodian of funds for the Bergen County Summer Campership Fund, a public-private venture in which children of low-income working families are given the opportunity to attend summer day camp. The Parent Aides for Teens mentoring program was initiated in 1995 to help teen mothers become responsible parents; it was terminated in 2006 due to lack of sustainable funding. Mentoring Moms was established in 1995 to provide peer mentors for overwhelmed mothers in need of guidance in parenting and life skills. In 1999, we began annual publication of our extensive database of volunteer opportunities in the Guide to Volunteering, well-received and distributed throughout our community. In 2000, our searchable database of volunteer opportunities was posted on our website: www.bergenvolunteers.org. In the wake of Tropical Storm Floyd in 1999, we formed the Bergen County VOAD (Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster) which assists the B.C. Office of Emergency Management, American Red Cross and other first responders in preparing for and responding to disasters. Our leadership of the VOAD has proved effective in mobilizing volunteers and agencies in response to subsequent events: the terror attacks of September 11, 2007 floods; violent storms in 2010; and Hurricane Irene in September, 2011. We are also involved in regional and national disaster response planning. In late 2003, we suspended sponsorship of DOVIA in order to focus on providing training to build capacity of nonprofit agencies to better fulfill their missions, including effective engagement of volunteers. Our Nonprofit Training and Resource Center provides an outstanding curriculum in volunteer program management, Board development and other topics relevant to nonprofit management; our "Neighbor Academy" is offered free of charge and targeted to grassroots, community and faith organizations of limited means. In 2007 we began development of Bergen LEADS, a civic leadership program designed to give the next generation of leaders insight into the challenges and opportunities facing Bergen County. The program was launched in September, 2008, and the first class of carefully selected, exceptional prospective leaders was graduated in June 2009. The Volunteer Center of Bergen County is an affiliate member of the Points of Light Institute & HandsOn Network, whose mission is to inspire, mobilize and equip people to take action that can change the world.

New Chore Wagon

Thanks to generous donations from several Rotary Clubs, Rotary District 7490, Columbia Bank, Oritani Bank, and Eisai and with the help of dedicated Rotarian Phil Ball a new van, complete with shelving and tools, was added to the fleet of our Chore Service (page 10), replacing a well-worn and repair-prone 14year-old van. Now, with three new vans on the road every workday, we have been able to decrease our wait time for service appointments, and we are keeping our volunteers safe as well. Bergen County homeowners age 60 and over, or who are permanently disabled, can make an appointment for Chore Service by calling 201-489-7790.

BVC Fun & Games

The Northern New Jersey Business Volunteer Council, sponsored by the Volunteer Center, planned to host its annual Night@Races in the fall, but the racetrack closed! So we improvised and had a wonderfully fun party at IKEA, with comedian Mark Malkoff as emcee. More than 200 guests enjoyed great food (including IKEAs famous swedish meatballs), libations, silent auction and, of course, fun and games! Proceeds supported the BVC's activities on behalf of children and families.

Holiday Giving Program
Our All Wrapped Up holiday giving program links individuals and families in need with generous donors in the community during the holiday season. We received requests for assistance from 42 nonprofit agencies, which submitted wish lists on behalf of 891 individuals (mostly seniors and people with disabilities) and 854 families comprising 2,917 family members. Despite the lingering recession, 715 volunteer donors stepped up to fulfill requests for holiday support. The result was that all of those for whom requests were received were adopted by generous donors and/or received gift cards for area supermarkets and discount stores. Altogether, the value of donated gifts, cash and gift cards totaled well over $300,000. Thanks to ALL!

Summer

Campership Fund

The Volunteer Center is custodian of funds for the Summer Campership Fund, a unique public-private collaboration that sends children of low income working parents to summer day camp. The Bergen County Office for Children reviews applications submitted by families and selects participants. A dedicated group of volunteers solicits contributions, and the Volunteer Center tracks donations and sends scholarships to day camps. In 2011, 74 donors contributed $23,865, enabling 21 children to enjoy the healthful benefits of summer day camp. Without this fund, many working families would have no recourse but to leave children home alone and unsupervised. Since its inception in 1994, the Bergen County Summer Campership Fund has raised $615,000 and provided summer daycamp for 908 children.
