THE PARTICIPANTS PRODUCE AND MARKET SOUPS, JEWELRY, GIFT BASKETS AND OTHER ITEMS. IN ADDITION, THE PROJECT PROVIDES THE BENEFIT OF COACHING, TRAINING, AND SUPPORT THAT THESE WOMEN REQUIRE TO HELP THEM DEVELOP BASIC PROFICIENCIES AND LIFE AND JOB READINESS SKILLS NEEDED TO GET AND KEEP PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT. WHILE WORKING IN A GOURMET FOOD MANUFACTURING BUSINESS, WOMEN LEARN THE WORK AND INTERPERSONAL SKILLS NEEDED TO FUNCTION INDEPENDENTLY IN THE WORKPLACE AND COMMUNITY. THESE TOOLS EMPOWER WOMEN TO CREATE BETTER LIVES FOR THEMSELVES AND PROVIDE THEIR FAMILIES WITH HOPE. THE BUSINESS GENERATES INCOME TO THE ORGANIZATION AND PROVIDES THE FOUNDATION FOR PROVIDING THE WORK EXPERIENCE THE WOMEN ARE LACKING. THE PROJECT FOCUSES ON HELPING WOMEN OVERCOME BARRIERS TO EMPLOYMENT BY ADDRESSING THREE AREAS: BASIC SKILLS, LIFE SKILLS, AND JOB READINESS SKILLS. IMMEDIATELY AFTER INTAKE, OUR FOCUS IS TO FACILITATE EACH WOMEN'S ACCESS TO SERVICES TO HELP HER MEET HER BASIC NEEDS, SUCH AS HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, CHILD CARE AND HEALTH CARE. WEEKLY LIFE SKILLS CLASSES SUPPORT GROWTH AND SELF-CONFIDENCE AND PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND IMPART CRUCIAL TOOLS NEEDED FOR EMPLOYMENT. THROUGH WORK IN OUR HANDS-ON BUSINESS, WOMEN LEARN THE SKILLS THAT EMPLOYERS SAY THEY ARE NOT GETTING IN ENTRY LEVEL APPLICANTS. THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF SIX TO TWELVE MONTHS, PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS DISCOVER THEIR CAPABILITIES AND INTERESTS. 831175 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 4 0 1 74 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 16 16 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X THE ORGANIZATION 3032921919 3201 CURTIS STREET DENVER CO 80205 KARA VEITCH CHAIR 1.00 X X 0 0 0 PENNI KEY CHAIR-ELECT 1.00 X 0 0 0 KRISTIN STROHM PAST CHAIR 1.00 X 0 0 0 HELEN ATKESON SECRETARY 1.00 X 0 0 0 STACEY HEKKERT TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 VANDA LEWIS DYSON CO-TREASURER 1.00 X 0 0 0 SARA THOMPSON CASSIDY DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 KIMBALL CRANGLE DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 STEVE DRISCOLL DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 SUE ENGLE DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 GAIL FRITZINGER DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 MAGGIE CHAN JONES DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 GREG RAIH DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 LAURA WEGSCHEID DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CLAUDE WILD DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JANET POPP WILLIAMS DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 TAMRA RYAN CEO 50.00 X 80083 0 6514 80083 0 6514 0 0 0 0 0 768230 648 768230 0 274180 61398 -61398 -61398 1045448 759292 286156 286156 992988 286156 0 -61398 87264 47575 26714 12975 465538 428892 10414 26232 37824 35439 149 2236 65439 58592 3287 3560 8313 8313 52514 4141 27958 20415 22379 21228 93 1058 59404 32253 8705 18446 59385 52333 7020 32 53232 45178 8054 1164 596 493 75 9463 6978 1946 539 52315 46558 5757 19458 17693 1765 PROGRAM EXPENSES 30027 30027 MISC FUNDRAISING 5756 5756 EQIUPMENT RENTAL 4707 3692 1015 1034182 831175 111683 91324 26996 11003 75138 172042 224235 63563 45035 288398 212886 14414 5908 1172339 576191 634109 596148 3586 13824 1203108 1184177 100225 71527 408883 459844 509108 531371 X 521958 455222 172042 197584 694000 652806 1203108 1184177 -41194 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 506230 615921 814260 757676 767582 3461669 506230 615921 814260 757676 767582 3461669 103205 3358464 1038 222 1260 3462929 5420925 0.96980 0.94870 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 38850 38850 881915 385995 495920 111203 96252 14951 140371 93944 46427 596148 X 1028084 35096 35096 992988 0 992988 1055778 21596 21596 1034182 0 1034182 PART X, LINE 2: FIN 48: THE PROJECT QUALIFIES AS A TAX-EXEMPT, NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (THE "CODE"), AND ACCORDINGLY, IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES OR RELATED INCOME PURSUANT TO SECTION 501(A) OF THE CODE.
