April 2014Giving abused kids a chance for a better life.

Yesterday was Molly’s birthday, and she got her wish.

A year ago, Molly was a frequent sight around Family Resource Center. On Thursday mornings, while her foster mother waited outside, she would skip down our hallways, her hair in neat braids with colorful barrettes, her outfits alternating between pink and purple. She was on her way to supervised visits with her birth mother.

“Molly’s dad was killed when she was an infant,” Jessica, our foster care case manager, says. “As the only girl among three brothers, she had a special relationship with her mom and it was a delight to hear them laughing and talking. We had high hopes that the mother would pull her life together so she could regain custody of her children.”

Those hopes were dashed overnight though. When Molly’s mother died of a heroin overdose, the task fell to Jessica to comfort the little girl. It was a difficult assignment, one not covered in textbooks. “I explained that her mother was now an angel watching over her,” the case manager recalls. “She seemed to understand. I gave her pictures of the two of them together and told her it was okay to miss her mom and that she could still talk to her. And I encouraged her to talk to me and to our therapist. She has lots of memories and it’s important to keep those memories alive.”

“This child has endured a lot,” Jessica says, “but she has a beautiful and loyal heart and she and her new mother have a

strong bond. She’s also very vocal! Before her adoption, she asked me if she could talk to the judge herself to tell him her wish to be adopted by her foster mom.”

“Molly is going to be a success; she knows she is loved. I wouldn’t be surprised if she became a foster parent someday -- she’d do a great job of it.”

Molly’s Story

Update

FRC began as a pilot program at St. Louis Children’s Hospital in 1974. Over the next 40 years, it would become Missouri’s premier non-profit agency working to treat and prevent child abuse.

At Family Resource Center, we know there’s nothing quite like a birthday to let someone know they’re special and loved. As we celebrate our 40th, we are very proud of the thousands of children and families who now have the chance for a happy future. And we’re very grateful to all those who make it possible.

Happy Birthday to us!

Happy Birthday to Family Resource Center!

Family Resource Center honored Nine Network and its President and CEO, Jack Galmiche, with the 2014 Herman T. and Phenie R. Pott Child Advocacy Award at the Gala on February 22.

Nine Network has been the leader in overseeing the “American Graduate Initiative” to address the school dropout rate among youth in the St. Louis community. The initiative is an effort to work through schools and organizations already engaged with local youth to encourage young people to complete school and then leverage their diplomas to stay on a productive path to a career. “We’ve heard it said many times that our youth are our future,” Jack Galmiche said, in accepting the award. “At Nine Network we are committed to making it a promising future.” He noted that FRC has been a pioneer in “building networks of like minded organizations to do what no one organization can accomplish alone.”

“We’ve been working for years through our mentoring program to keep teen parents in school,” said Greg Echele, CEO of Family Resource Center. “Nine Network, under Jack’s leadership, has raised the dropout issue to a whole new level of

public awareness and has brought other players to the table in a collaborative effort that can only be good for our youth and our community.”

The Pott Child Advocacy Award is given annually to an individual or company that exemplifies the spirit of the Pott family in promoting Family Resource Center’s mission.

Dear Friends,

“From Darkness to Light!”

What a great theme for the celebration of our 40th Anniversary on February 22nd [see inside]. And what a thrill it was, at the end of the evening, to see that dark room at the St. Louis Science Center lit up by all those lights – each representing a guest who had made a contribution to our Fund-a-Need request. Preliminary results indicate this was the most successful (and fun) Gala we’ve had, with revenues well over $300,000.

Sometimes the work we do can seem awfully heavy, so it’s healthy for us to balance the seriousness with some fun as well. One of the really light moments at the Gala was when

Rob Weiman, our auctioneer, sold a tin of Anna Beck’s delicious brownies for $500. Anna was stunned! But having been the lucky recipient of some of her brownies in the past, I wasn’t surprised at all.

And one of the most touching moments was the video – “Imagine”. If you want a sense of what FRC has meant to the St. Louis community over these 40 years, I’d encourage you to go to our website (www.frcmo.org) and watch the video. It’s about 3 minutes long, yet it captures perfectly the role FRC plays in an abused child’s journey from the darkness of fear and despair to the light of hope and happiness.

Thanks to all those who attended or supported the Gala – our Honorary Co-Chairs and Honored Guest, the Host Committee, our 500+ guests, many generous sponsors, Board members, and our volunteers and staff. Let’s keep the light burning and the hope alive for our kids.

Greg Echele, Chief Executive Officer

P.S. If you didn’t get to attend the Gala or didn’t get to be a “light for a child,” you can do so right now. If you send me your contribution in the enclosed envelope, I’ll send you a light so you can join our “circle of light”, giving abused kids here in St. Louis a chance at a better life.

Several years ago, Mandi Morris and a group of her friends decided to forgo their traditional holiday gift exchange so they could help someone in need. Our “Shop for a Teen Angel” program was just what they were looking for. With the help of Tina Nelson, FRC’s Events Manager, Mandi and her friends received a list of the clothing needs for

several foster care teens, and then they began shopping.

Mandi is the founder and owner of Azalea Agency, a St. Louis based talent agency. “We are a fashion-minded group,” she says, “so picking out great clothes for teenagers in foster care

is fun. We always hope the teens will be excited by the new clothes and know that someone is thinking of them during the holidays. This past year we were really able to maximize our budget by using coupons for Old Navy, which all of our teens had listed as a favorite store, and then the sales staff gave us an additional discount since this was such a great cause. As a result, we were able to get each teen two full outfits, socks, t-shirts, a hoodie or coat, pajamas, scarves, hats, gloves, and new handbags for the girls.”

“The right outfit can make anyone feel confident,” Mandi says. “We want these kids to feel good about themselves so they can put their best foot forward. Working with Family Resource Center has been wonderful. We plan to continue the tradition again this year.”

“From Darkness to Light”: 2014 Gala is a Night to RememberWhat fun! Over 500 well-wishers came together on Saturday, February 22, for an exciting evening at the St. Louis Science Center to celebrate Family Resource Center’s 40th Anniversary.

Although the gigantic T-Rex that usually greets visitors had silenced its roar for the night, the unique venue still managed to bring out the kid in each of us! Guests “conga-ed” down the halls to the rhythm of the Joia Percussion Ensemble and enjoyed an evening of good food, great company and exciting raffles and auction items (including a trip to Ireland, a chance to throw out the first pitch at a Cardinal’s game, and the star of the evening, a doe-eyed Golden Retriever puppy).

The theme of the 2014 Gala highlighted FRC’s astounding accomplishments: forty years of helping thousands of children move “From Darkness to Light,” from the horrors of abuse to safety and a happy future. A video produced through the generosity of Meoli Digital drove home the message that each guest had the opportunity that evening to help bring light to an abused child’s life.

The beautifully orchestrated event, co-chaired by FRC Board members Jan Hess and Laura Holt, raised a remarkable $332,000 for FRC’s kids. Honorary Co-Chairs were John and Ashley Kemper and Richard and Missy Mark, and the Honored Guest was Jackie Joyner-Kersee. KTVI’s Monica Adams served as Emcee.

Each year at the Gala, FRC singles out a person or organization that demonstrates a real commitment to improving children’s lives. This year’s Herman T. and Phenie R. Pott Award was given to Jack Galmiche and Nine Network for their work on the American Graduate Initiative [see article on inner flap].

Thank you to FRC’s staff and many volunteers, including employees from Target-Hampton Village, our Gala sponsors, and all the friends of FRC who helped make the evening an amazing success.
