St Petersburg She feared that reporting the abuse would result in her deportation It s hard to imagine how a walk in freezer could mean so much to so many At Tarpon Springs Shepherd Center it is a cherished gift It is challenging to provide nearly 80 000 hot meals without a large scale freezer says Ada Del Gais executive director of the Tarpon Springs Shepherd Center The center feeds those in need at multiple locations including local churches and the Boys Girls Club Community Action Stops Abuse CASA helped restore her documents during her eight month stay at the shelter The CASA thrift store provided furniture for an apartment and CASA s ongoing support helped her gain independence Progress for domestic abuse victims is not linear said Lariana Forsythe CEO of CASA Pinellas Community Foundation understands the complexity of our work and the time it takes to move forward she explained The COVID 19 pandemic adds greater complexity as isolation and job loss lead to increased stress levels Yet the pandemic has not stopped CASA from seeking to free society of domestic violence While the number of individuals pursuing shelter decreased in March 2020 likely due to COVID 19 fears the 24 hour emergency hotline received a 30 increase in calls CASA predicts the number of people fleeing abusive environments will surge as safer at home orders expire Thank You David Sietsma With two PCF grants in 2019 10 000 for operating funds and 19 800 to improve the nonresidential location CASA is better prepared for the surge Over the past two years as chair of the Pinellas Community Foundation

Foundation Board of Governors Lariana Forsythe CEO CASA Jane Trochek Walker Executive Director Daystar Life Center 211 Tampa Bay Cares Team Daystar Life Center 211 Tampa Bay Cares Using the internet and computers is customary to most Checking email and submitting forms online are equally routine However what if navigating computers and Wi Fi networks was a complete mystery to you Imagine being unfamiliar with these functions that serve as a lifeline to validate your social security number receive health care benefits or apply for income subsidies or unemployment Last year more than 120 000 calls and text messages from people seeking assistance came in at 211 Tampa Bay Cares The Clearwater based service is a help and referral source a 24 hour hotline that helps Pinellas residents in crisis This is the world of many among us said Jane Trochek Walker executive director of Daystar Life Center The center is dedicated to providing life s necessities to our neighbors experiencing hunger homelessness and hopelessness Through no fault of their own they have become even more vulnerable in light of the COVID 19 pandemic Walker said Pinellas Community Foundation collaborates with the community to identify and consolidate resources to support a need As public and private funds were secured to open the new Daystar campus in 2019 PCF awarded a 20 000 grant to provide a comprehensive communications system The grant helped equip Daystar with the computer wireless network security and phone systems required for today s operations The new system is essential to a center where individuals and families come daily to pick up necessities such as food produce from a sustainable garden mail and hygiene items and to connect with others Think of us as a lifeline connecting people to resources to help in difficult times said Micki Thompson President and CEO of 211 Tampa Bay Cares It is no surprise that in March 2020 the call volume increased 40 from the previous March while text messages soared by 166 People are stressed financially and emotionally especially with the pandemic said Thompson pointing to one health care worker who received free transportation to her job at a long term health care facility The hotline also helped a grandmother whose car repairs and caregiving for a disabled grandchild left her unable to pay her water bill The stories of help and gratitude are many The 211 staff of 48 gives hope to thousands through services such as suicide prevention the homeless helpline adult financial assistance veterans support assistance and more A 10 000 grant from the Pinellas Community Foundation awarded consistently for more than 20 years helps cover operating costs The funding is especially vital as calls escalate as a result of COVID 19 to a center that operates 24 7 year round Ada Del Gais Executive Director Tarpon Springs Shepherd Center When the Shepherd Center raised enough funds to enlarge and renovate its facility with enough space for a large scale freezer Pinellas Community Foundation provided 20 000 for capital improvements and equipment It was an answer to a prayer said Del Gais who sought funds for three years before receiving the PCF grant The freezer was an essential step to finally consolidating most of our community kitchens into one location she said Now with its thrift store Hope Center outreach program and food pantry the Shepherd Center is a true hub for the countless people all over north Pinellas County who lack the basic resources to survive The COVID 19 pandemic did not stop the Shepherd Center s dedication to serving the disadvantaged The center adjusted its way of serving clients by providing education and masks requiring a 6 foot separation between clients serving food boxes outside and eliminating the client sign in process 2019 ANNUAL REPORT
