Dear Friends of <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Patrick</strong> <strong>Center</strong>,<br />
One the greatest rewards of being part of <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Patrick</strong> <strong>Center</strong>, beyond seeing so many lives<br />
profoundly changed by our mission, is to be surrounded by a magnitude of service. There are<br />
few places where you can interact and associate yourself with so many compassionate, dedicated<br />
people. The more we grow our mission, the more love and service we are blessed with. When we<br />
fear that we have taken on more than we can do, God always sends us the servants to help. That<br />
is what happened last year, during one of the most challenging economic times we have faced at<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Patrick</strong> <strong>Center</strong>.<br />
<strong>Fiscal</strong> <strong>Year</strong> <strong>2009</strong> was a year of many miracles! In spite of the difficult economy, our donors<br />
generously gave $1.8 million in December alone, exceeding all other year-end giving in our 26-<br />
year history. The <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Patrick</strong>’s Irish Open celebrated 25 years in May – who could have imagined<br />
that the Swing ‘n Swear, as it was originally named, would last so long and raise $715,000 on<br />
its 25th anniversary! More than 1,500 donors, individuals and corporations, supported and<br />
attended the Irish Open, as well as the Sports Trivia Championship in February. In March,<br />
we “grew the circle” for our Pot O’ Gold Kettle Drive, increasing the numbers of volunteers<br />
(400+), collection sites (49) and revenue ($54,000). Another incredible outcome was the housing<br />
move-in-kit initiative. The Board of Trustees launched this new initiative last fall, collecting 47<br />
move-in-kits and raising $18,000 for another 90 kits to sustain this resource for clients moving<br />
into housing.<br />

God is calling us to continue to find innovative, effective ways to combat homelessness<br />
and poverty. Together with your support, we will continue to reduce homelessness in our<br />
community.<br />
Most Gratefully,<br />
