In addition to direct assistance to clients, we are also the Regional Food Bank for our four-county area. As such, we distribute food to fifteen food pantries and several Harvest Share and Fresh Alliance sites. We also replace unsafe furnaces, weatherize homes, and rehabilitate homes to improve living conditions and address structural concerns. In Fiscal Year 2023, thousands of people stayed warm and safe with heating assistance; we helped people, whether housed or homeless, with security deposits, rent and utility payments, motel lodging, meals, tents, sleeping bags, socks and transportation; food boxes and produce pickups eased families hunger; and people received home repair and energy efficiency information resulting in homes being improved. 2371876 Transportation programs: Throughout FY 23, Community Connection continued its multi-faceted transportation system. The deviated and fixed route systems in Baker City and La Grande are open to everyone as are The Link seasonal route in Wallowa County and the dial-a-ride busses in Baker and Wallowa counties. If unable to navigate the fixed route, a qualified passenger in La Grande rides the paratransit bus. Also available for any and all riders are the intercity busses from Baker City and Enterprise to our multi-modal hub in La Grande. Beyond our region, taking passengers to medical appointments in Boise, Walla Walla, and Portland is a common occurrence. 2208816 Senior programs: Helping seniors live independently in their homes while providing opportunities for socialization and access to services remains the primary goal of our senior programs. When a senior citizen or their family member seeks answers, we are usually the first place they turn. Just a few hours of assistance per week often makes the difference between living independently and a move to a care facility. In fiscal year 2023 we received a donation of the Baker Senior Center. The addition and remodel are complete. There is additional office space for any potential expansion of services. Seniors received 92 phone calls to check on their health and well-being; 979 seniors and 213 volunteers enjoyed 39,782 meals from our senior centers; 745 seniors had 76,137 meals delivered to their homes; 111 frail seniors were helped with 24,278 professional caregiver hours; 49 family caregivers received 5,290 hours of respite relief; 54 seniors and their families received guidance on addressing immediate needs and planning for the future; and 4,533 recreational activities such as dances, card games, billiards, and exercise classes brought together 237 (duplicated) people. 437898 10677360 true false false false false false false false false false true false false true true true false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 294 0 true 82 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 13 13 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false OR X X X CONNIE GUENTERT 5419633186 2802 ADAMS AVENUE LA GRANDE OR 97850 X STEVE MCCLURE CHAIRMAN 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 SCOTT MYERS VICE CHAIR 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ROSWITHA PARKS Secretary 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BRUCE NICHOLS Treasurer 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN HILLOCK Director 0.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 MATT SCARFO Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ELSIE PELLISSIER Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BARBARA MCCORMACK Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JULIEKAY DUDLEY Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SAM PALMER Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DAN SEAMAN Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DOUG GASLIN Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JIM HICKS Director 0.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 10021481 1375365 11396846 PROGRAM SERVICE REVENUE 475284 475284 475284 1366 1366 0 0 0 0 19218 1085 18133 6841 17649 17649 17649 0 IN-KIND SERVICES 931519 931519 OTHER REVENUE 70812 70812 REBATE REVENUE 19831 19831 1022162 12931440 1516461 6841 0 0 0 0 0 0 3425458 2763773 661685 0 750386 651686 98700 0 0 7679 6830 849 0 0 0 0 44181 31709 12472 36310 34083 2227 89783 79741 10042 0 0 223235 221158 2077 134219 95575 38644 0 0 0 0 411128 411128 92003 57069 34934 CLIENT ASSISTANCE 3485106 3485106 IN KIND FACILITIES/SERVICES 931519 931519 CONTRACT LABOR & SERVICES 777540 777540 VEHICLES & EQUIPMENT 600409 573439 26970 557004 557004 11565960 10677360 888600 0 1705052 1414484 0 2100453 2384233 0 0 0 0 0 24709 50105 7881457 3308172 3112440 4573285 0 0 0 0 2359933 2350383 9302587 10772490 767277 602644 272791 430286 113974 1040068 1146904 X 728552 1129328 7533967 8496258 8262519 9625586 9302587 10772490 1365480 -2413 X false true X true true true X 6444600 7321478 12012983 12448092 11396846 49623999 0 0 6444600 7321478 12012983 12448092 11396846 49623999 0 49623999 0 0 0 49623999 1.00000 1.00000 X 621645 621645 3439775 463365 2976410 103249 29485 73764 3711788 2815322 896466 5000 5000 4573285 BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN ASSETS 144392 NOTES RECEIVABLE 2096686 RIGHT OF USE ASSET 109305 2350383 LEASE LIABILITY 113973 Rounding 1 113974 X Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.
