AT THE CORE OF OUR EFFORTS IS OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH WORKING PARENTS, HELPING THEM BUILD A SECURE FUTURE FOR THEIR CHILDREN. OUR CENTER HAS BEEN AT FULL CAPACITY THE ENTIRE YEAR AND NOW HAS A LIST OF OVER TWO-DOZEN FAMILIES WAITING TO ENROLL THEIR CHILDREN IN PRE-KINDERGARTEN READINESS. WE AUGMENT THIS ROBUST PRE-K READINESS INITIATIVE WITH A FOCUS ON EXTRACURRICULAR LEARNING EXPERIENCES FOR CHILDREN GRADES K-6, DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR AND OVER THE SUMMER. WE FACILITATED OVER 900 HOURS OF PROGRAMMING FOR APPROXIMATELY 100 SCHOOL AGED CHILDREN THROUGH OUR COMMUNITY CENTER. ALTHOUGH DEVELOPMENTAL PROGRAMMING WITHIN A SAFE AND NURTURING ENVIRONMENT HAS MEASURABLE IMPACT, WE ALSO RECOGNIZE THAT THIS IMPACT CAN BE SIGNIFICANTLY DIMINISHED WHEN FOOD SCARCITY IS PERVASIVE IN THE HOME. THANKS TO OUR VOLUNTEERS, WHO MADE THE MOST OF OUR KITCHEN SPACE, SOME 350 HOUSEHOLDS RECEIVED A COMBINED TOTAL OF APPROXIMATELY 120,000 POUNDS OF FOOD THROUGH OUR WEEKLY FOOD DISTRIBUTION. THIS ENORMOUS EFFORT WAS COMPLIMENTED BY OVER 1000 HOT MEALS SERVED TO NEIGHBORS AND THEIR CHILDREN AS WELL AS SOME 300 POUNDS OF FRESH PRODUCE HARVESTED BY COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS FROM OUR GARDEN. DALLAS BETHLEHEM CENTER IS A COMMUNITY. AS SUCH WE THRIVE ON THE EFFORTS AND GOODWILL OF VOLUNTEERS FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND BEYOND. AMAZINGLY, OVER 160 VOLUNTEERS DEDICATED THEIR TIME WORKING IN DBC PROGRAMS AND FACILITY WORKDAYS.

Any director who believes he or she may have such a conflict of interest shall so notify the Board prior to deliberation on the matter in question, and the Board shall make the final determination as to whether any director has a conflict of interest in any matter.
