2 Letters from the Director and Board President<br />
From Our point of View<br />
As we have prepared for the<br />
recognition of <strong>LaCasa</strong>’s 40 th<br />
Anniversary I’ve had the opportunity<br />
to hear many stories from former<br />
staff, board members, volunteers and<br />
donors. Our history is an inspiring<br />
Larry Gautsche<br />
story of personal sacrifice, advocacy<br />
and, for many families, the achievement of their dream of financial<br />
stability, citizenship or homeownership. <strong>LaCasa</strong> in 2010 is the<br />
result of literally thousands of persons in our community who<br />
have shared a vision for personal growth, family stability and<br />
neighborhood improvement.<br />
Despite a very challenging recession, your support has allowed<br />
us to maintain critical educational and counseling services and<br />
extend quality affordable housing services to Elkhart. Successful<br />
grant applications for housing rehabilitation have expanded<br />
our partnerships with Elkhart, Goshen and Elkhart County.<br />
<strong>LaCasa</strong>’s counselors continue to provide knowledgeable foreclosure<br />
prevention counseling as a free service.<br />
We are excited to announce two important new initiatives in 2010.<br />
• In May we will begin a planning process to explore models<br />
of comprehensive community economic development with<br />
leadership in Elkhart City while at the same time, working<br />
with neighborhood leadership to develop a quality of life<br />
plan to guide future work in Elkhart.<br />
• In June, the Help-A-House program that has so effectively<br />
matched volunteers, local donations and grant funds to<br />
assist homeowners with repairs will be expanded. New<br />
funding from IHCDA will allow us to serve Elkhart<br />
County homeowners living outside the City boundaries of<br />
Goshen and Elkhart.<br />
Thank you for your support for the past 40 years! Thank<br />
you for helping to sustain and grow <strong>LaCasa</strong>’s capacity to respond<br />
to needs in our community during the current recession. With<br />
your help, as neighbors helping neighbors, we can create a brighter<br />
future for all families in our community.<br />
—Larry Gautsche, President/CEO<br />
On behalf of the Board of Directors of <strong>LaCasa</strong>, I would like to thank the staff, volunteers, partners, and<br />
donors who help us address our mission to “work with individuals and community partners to create opportunity<br />
for personal growth, family stability, and neighborhood improvement.”<br />
The most visible example of <strong>LaCasa</strong>’s work comes each May when almost four-hundred volunteers and dozens<br />
of businesses volunteer to assist neighbors in fixing up their homes during Help-A-House. Work begins early on a<br />
Saturday morning and goes through late afternoon, neighbors helping neighbors build a better community.<br />
David B. Daugherty<br />
Each month the Board has an opportunity to hear some of the stories from the individuals and families that<br />
are helped by the work of <strong>LaCasa</strong>. In this year’s Annual Report you will be able to read from some of these same stories. While your name may<br />
not be mentioned, be assured that as a staff member, volunteer, donor or supporter of <strong>LaCasa</strong> you are part of the story. Your involvement helped<br />
make life better for someone in our community.<br />
—David B. Daugherty, Board Chair<br />

Carlajo had been divorced for several years,<br />
renting an apartment and glad to have a job.<br />
Through a chance meeting with <strong>LaCasa</strong>’s loan<br />
originator she learned that with some work, she<br />
could eventually qualify to purchase a home. She<br />
began to look in her old neighborhood and found<br />
that her grandmother’s home was for sale. Using<br />

Seize the Opportunity!<br />
the Elkhart County Lead Hazard Control program<br />
along with grants from HOME and Elkhart<br />
CDBG, Carlajo’s new home was soon back to<br />
better than original condition. With a lot of hard<br />
work on her part and many caring <strong>LaCasa</strong> staff,<br />
Carlajo’s dream of owning her own home became<br />
a reality.<br />

Elkhart residents rallied to empower youth<br />
through arts, youth that otherwise would never have<br />
had the opportunity. It was community at its finest.<br />
The evidence of success is that kids showed up. Very<br />
few missed classes. They usually wanted to stay<br />
longer. By the time the performance came, they were<br />
demonstrating teamwork, leadership, courtesy and<br />
consideration. Several of them asked “When are we<br />
doing this again?” How do you put a price tag on that?<br />
—Paul Bertha, Roosevelt Neighborhood Resident<br />
and Drama Instructor at Roosevelt’s “Summer Academy”<br />
<strong>LaCasa</strong> was mid-wife at the birth of Northside<br />
Neighborhood Association in Goshen 11 years ago.<br />
NNA was reactivated four years ago after a gang<br />
shooting wake up call. <strong>LaCasa</strong>’s encouragement,<br />
networking and community organizing expertise<br />
enabled NNA to pioneer sub-standard housing<br />
improvement and crime reduction efforts which<br />
are now being implemented throughout the city.<br />
Given the challenges we face, NNA could not exist<br />
without <strong>LaCasa</strong>.<br />
—Gary Martin, Northside Neighborhood<br />

Immigration Counseling 5<br />

Isrrael Mujica, a <strong>LaCasa</strong><br />
Homeownership Counselor, recently<br />
attained his U.S. Citizenship.<br />
Citizenship • Residency • Family Petitions<br />
Albaro, a Permanent Resident, lived and worked in the US for<br />
many years. He longed for his wife and children to join him in<br />
the US. In 2004 <strong>LaCasa</strong> counselors filed family petitions to begin the<br />
immigration process for his family. However, because of backlogs and<br />
delays, Albaro was informed that it could take seven years for his family<br />
to immigrate to the US. The only way to speed up the process would<br />
be for Albaro to become a US Citizen. He decided to go through the<br />
rigorous Naturalization process. In 2006 his hard work paid off; he<br />
became a US Citizen. <strong>LaCasa</strong> counselors assisted Albaro in preparing<br />
documents and forms for his family to immigrate. Finally, the family<br />
was scheduled for the visa interview in January of 2009. Albaro’s wife,<br />
Rosa, and four children were approved for visas and joined Albaro in<br />
Goshen. It was a bittersweet moment for the family, though. During the<br />
waiting period, Albaro’s son turned 21, too old to obtain a visa with the<br />
others. He must wait 10-12 more years in Mexico before he can receive<br />
the visa. The family is waiting for the day they will be complete.

The Washington house prior to renovation<br />
work.<br />
The house on Washington was vacant and in very sad condition. The owners no longer<br />
wanted to be landlords so they donated it to <strong>LaCasa</strong>. Businesses donated time and<br />
materials while volunteers put in many hours. The improvements included many features that<br />
produce a Green house. The insulation is a two part foam system with dense pack cellulose that<br />
far exceeds the minimum code requirements for insulation. We also replaced the furnace and air<br />
conditioners with high efficiency equipment and installed Energy Star appliances and compact<br />
fluorescent light bulbs. Neighbors watched the improvements to their neighborhood. Before<br />
long we had an Open House and a family who rented nearby came to inspect. They were able to<br />
purchase the home through <strong>LaCasa</strong>’s Affordable Housing Fund and now the neighborhood has a<br />
beautifully restored home!

with grandmother Barbara<br />
Whitener enjoy their newly<br />
renovated building.<br />
The tenants at 169 State Street in Elkhart were not used to<br />
having a landlord who helped when there was a problem. <strong>LaCasa</strong><br />
purchased the property in 2008 and change began. With the<br />
help of many volunteers <strong>LaCasa</strong> has cleaned up and fenced<br />
the back yard, painted the interior common area and replaced<br />
laundry equipment. In addition <strong>LaCasa</strong> applied for grants from<br />
H o m e O w n e r s h i p a n d A f f o r d a b l e R e n t a l s<br />
Affordable Rentals<br />

the City of Elkhart and NeighborWorks America to renovate this<br />
10 unit apartment complex. In the fall of 2009 a local contractor<br />
was hired to install a geothermal HVAC system including new<br />
ventilation for bathrooms and kitchens. Tenants can expect a<br />
30% or more decrease in utility bills starting now. Our mission<br />
is to make our rentals SAFE, QUALITY and AFFORDABLE!<br />

Helping Families–Improving Neighborhoods<br />
Graciela’s home needed a new roof and windows. The City<br />
of Goshen had inspected the structure and said the roof was<br />
not weather tight and was out of code. Her income from Social<br />
Security is very low. A Crew Leader from Ancon Construction<br />
and several of their employees worked along with other volunteers<br />
to install the windows and new roof. Graciela helped the crew by<br />
picking up the old shingles. It was a long, cold and windy day but<br />
now her house is up to city code and much more energy efficient.<br />
