Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
YOUTH PROGRAMS RESEARCH SHOWS THAT HIGH-QUALITY AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS IMPROVE STUDENTS' EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES, SCHOOL ATTENDANCE, AND SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING. CONSISTENT PARTICIPATION IN AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS RESULTS IN LOWER DROPOUT RATES AND HELPS TO CLOSE ACHIEVEMENT GAPS FOR LOW-INCOME STUDENTS. AFTER THE SCHOOL DAY ENDS, 1 IN 5 KIDS ACROSS AMERICA ARE ALONE AND UNSUPERVISED. THESE HOURS-FROM 2 TO 6 P.M. ARE THE PEAK TIME FOR JUVENILE CRIME. AFTER- SCHOOL PROGRAMS TURN THAT TIME OF RISK INTO OPPORTUNITY, KEEPING KIDS SAFE AND HELPING THEM REALIZE THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. IN OUR COMMUNITY, WELLSPRING'S AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM AND SUMMER DAY CAMP ARE INSPIRING LEARNING, PROVIDING SAFETY, PROMOTING SMART CHOICES, AND SUPPORTING WORKING PARENTS. COST AND ACCESS CONTINUE TO BE BARRIERS TO PARTICIPATION IN AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS, WITH ABOUT 3 IN 5 PARENTS MENTIONING THIS AS THE REASON THEY DID NOT ENROLL THEIR CHILD IN SUCH A PROGRAM. WITH YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT, WELLSPRING WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE AFTER-SCHOOL AND SUMMER DAY CAMP PROGRAMS TO OUR COMMUNITY FREE OF CHARGE. IN 2022, 244 STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN OUR PROGRAMS.
CLOTHING SHOPPE: THROUGH OUR BOUTIQUE-STYLE CLOTHING BANK, WE PROVIDE QUALITY CLOTHING FREE-OF-CHARGE TO RESIDENTS IN NEED. IN 2022, OUR CLOTHING SHOPPE SERVED 2,205 INDIVIDUALS AND GAVE OUT 25,966 PIECES OF CLOTHING. ALL ITEMS IN THE SHOPPE ARE DONATIONS FROM INDIVIDUALS, AND PARTNERING STORES THAT PROVIDE US THEIR EXTRA INVENTORY. CLOTHING ON OUR RACKS IS IN THE BEST CONDITION AND QUALITY, ONLY WITHOUT A PRICE TAG. CASE MANAGEMENT: THIS WAS A NEW PROGRAM IN 2022. OUR CASE MANAGER HAS HELPED MANY WELLSPRING CLIENTS FIND RESOURCES IN THE COMMUNITY THAT WE COULDN'T OFFER. FAMILIES WERE CONNECTED WITH NONPROFITS WHO WERE ABLE TO HELP THEM FIND HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, FURNITURE, AND HEALTHCARE. IN 2022, WE HAVE SERVED 98 FAMILIES IN THIS PROGRAM.
OLDER ADULT PROGRAM: WE HELP SENIOR CITIZENS AND ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES STAY CONNECTED TO THE COMMUNITY AND ACHIEVE HOLISTIC WELLNESS THROUGH OUR DAILY PROGRAMMING. IN 2022, 134 INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATED IN THIS PROGRAM. PARTICIPANTS BENEFITED FROM GREATER SOCIALIZATION AND INTERACTION WITH OTHERS, IMPROVED PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH, AND INCREASED ABILITY TO MAINTAIN INDEPENDENCE. "AFTER I LOST MY WIFE, I HAD NO DESIRE TO LIVE. MY DOCTOR RECOMMENDED THAT I FIND A SOCIAL PROGRAM IN THE AREA. AFTER THE FIRST VISIT TO WELLSPRING, I FELT RELIEF AND HOPE. I ENJOY THE PROGRAM VERY MUCH."
FOOD BANK: FOOD INSECURE INDIVIDUALS ACROSS ALLEN COUNTY DEPEND ON OUR HELP IN THE DAILY FOOD BANK. IN 2022, WE SERVED 6,203 INDIVIDUALS PROVIDING THEM WITH 132,000 POUNDS OF FOOD AT 20,603 VISITS. MOST FOOD BANKS IN ALLEN COUNTY PREPACKAGE FOOD OFFERINGS. WELLSPRING OFFERS FAMILIES THE OPTION TO CHOOSE THE FOOD THEY WILL ACTUALLY USE IN THEIR HOUSEHOLD.
