executive<br />
message<br />
In 2010, Brooklyn struggled mightily with the effects of the<br />
Great Recession. The borough was particularly hard hit by<br />
the twin crises of unemployment and foreclosure. Brooklyn<br />
began the year with an unemployment rate of 11.0% and it has remained<br />
stubbornly high ever since. Regarding foreclosure, Brooklyn<br />
had the fourth highest number of foreclosure filings of any<br />
county in New York State. Neighborhoods where CAMBA has<br />
a strong presence, including Bedford-Stuyvesant, Canarsie, and<br />
East Flatbush were among those hardest hit by the foreclosure crisis.<br />
Faced with this environment of economic peril, CAMBA has<br />
stood steadfast with the community, protecting local residents<br />
and creating opportunities for security and self-sufficiency.<br />
CAMBA has been providing foreclosure prevention services<br />
since 2008. In that time, we have helped nearly 100 at-risk households<br />
avoid foreclosure and remain in their homes. Since 2009,<br />
CAMBA Legal Services has offered legal representation to families<br />
facing foreclosure and we continue to provide zealous advocacy<br />
for our clients.<br />
To help address the local employment picture, CAMBA used<br />
funds from the federal Stimulus Act to operate a Dislocated Workers<br />
program. Through this effort, we helped 200 local residents<br />
to find gainful employment at competitive wages. Also this year,<br />
CAMBA’s Workforce Development and Adult Learning programs<br />
successfully partnered with one another to assist job seekers in<br />
need of English as a Second Language training and GED preparation<br />
courses find employment as part of the Stimulus Act. Members<br />
of the community with limited English or no high school diploma<br />
were hit particularly hard by the recession. CAMBA moved<br />
decisively to support these struggling job seekers.<br />
Through CAMBA Housing Ventures, we have continued in<br />
our efforts to provide the community with supportive and affordable<br />
housing. At 97 Crooke Avenue, we began construction<br />

of the Reverend Daniel Ramm Residence, a 53-unit facility that reached 31% on-time construction.<br />
At the campus of the Kings County Hospital Center, CAMBA Housing Ventures continued predevelopment<br />
activities on CAMBA Gardens. This project – which will provide 209 units of LEED<br />
Silver-rated affordable and supportive housing – has already been recognized as a national model<br />
of collaboration between local government and the non-profit sector.<br />
For families with school-aged children, CAMBA provides the resources that parents need so that<br />
they can remain employed while knowing that their children are secure. This past year, CAMBA’s<br />
afterschool programs kept over 2,100 children safe and engaged in creative learning activities while<br />
their parents worked. These and other programs are vital supports for middle and working class<br />
families who otherwise could not ensure that their children would be involved in positive opportunities<br />
in the after-school hours.<br />
The recession has also battered those who rent their housing and CAMBA has been there to<br />
help. This past year, through our efforts, over 2,000 families avoided eviction and remained stably<br />
housed. At CAMBA Legal Services alone, we prevented 295 evictions.<br />
The pages that follow highlight the experiences of CAMBA clients who have turned to the agency<br />
for support in troubled times. We hope you will find them as moving as we do.<br />

I used to work for a temp company, but it was inconsistent. My caseworker encouraged<br />
me and after I went for the interview I got hired for part time. n Every<br />
time I need my caseworker, she’s there. n CAMBA gave us a whole booklet before<br />
the interview so we didn’t go in blind and we knew what Whole Foods was<br />
looking for. That is what helped me to really get into the company and absorb as<br />
much as I could. CAMBA dealt with Whole Foods before so my caseworker knew<br />
exactly what they were looking for in a candidate. So that really really helped<br />
me. n You have to put your best foot forward and you never know what’s going<br />
to happen. n I’ve been working 40 hours a week since I started, and that’s been<br />
really awesome for me. n CAMBA’s a helping ground. I think it’s a good network<br />
for you to build with other people as well so you can network and build yourself<br />
as a person and it’s just an all around great aid for a person who is really trying to<br />
develop himself in this country. n This is a great opportunity for me to let people<br />
know that there is hope for you if you now come here and you want to get a job.<br />
There is an avenue to go to for guidance. n I’m very positive about the future.<br />
Having this opportunity happen for me, it means that anything can happen.<br />

caseworker, she’s there.<br />

I left Kosovo like too many people. It was a war, so I came<br />
to America. I had a part time job in a restaurant but it didn’t<br />
cover my bills because with a part time job you can’t afford<br />
even rent, forget about clothes. CAMBA found a job for me<br />
in a hotel in downtown Manhattan. I just received an award<br />
from the company. n I’m happy because now I can pay my<br />
bills plus I have money for clothes and to send to my wife,<br />
she is still in Kosovo. CAMBA is helping me to fill out the<br />
application and the papers to bring her here. If you need<br />
help if you don’t speak English, don’t worry there’s a place,<br />
this place here, they take care of you.<br />
n 100 immigrant professionals<br />
from 35 countries were trained<br />
to transfer their foreign skill<br />
sets and credentials to higher<br />
earning jobs in Brooklyn.<br />
n 7 businesses were assisted in<br />
creating 15 new jobs.<br />

I wasn’t self-sufficient with the economy being the way it is. I felt empty. That’s when I realized I<br />
needed my GED. When I came to the REACH GED program -it grew from there and Workforce<br />
Development put me in a great company, Whole Foods. n CAMBA never gave up on me, they<br />
became the family that I always wanted. Change begins with you. I want to give back to the community<br />
and get people involved in this program because - CAMBA is Brooklyn and Brooklyn is<br />
me- all three worlds together - it can be better- because we’re Brooklyn together.<br />
Annette Alvarado<br />
CAMBA helps the community by keeping the children occupied in something positive. If the children<br />
didn’t have anywhere to go – they would be in the park getting into trouble. I know I can count<br />
on this program even when there’s no school and I have to work, because it’s open. The leaders look<br />
out for the welfare of the children. n One day the supervisor noticed I was worried. The economy<br />
really affected us, my husband didn’t work for 7 months. She directed us to CAMBA’s legal services.<br />
Now it seems like everything is falling back into place and looks positive.<br />
Alexis Alvarado<br />
CAMBA helps us with our homework but it’s<br />
not just doing work. We have Global Partners<br />
Jr. where we go to computer class and talk to<br />
people around the world. There’s also dance,<br />
stepping, cooking, jump rope, double-dutch,<br />
basketball and science. n I’m becoming a<br />
whiz at math. The future is going to be good.<br />
If the afterschool program wasn’t here, I would<br />
miss my teacher because she’s very involved.<br />
You could have the prettiest apple on the tree<br />
but it could have worms inside of it and the ugliest<br />
apple could be the best one- you always<br />
have to give people a chance.<br />
2010 Outcomes<br />
n At the School for Democracy and<br />
Leadership, a small school where CAMBA<br />
is active in school leadership, 82.5% of<br />
seniors in the Class of 2010 graduated.<br />
n CAMBA’s afterschool programs kept<br />
over 2,100 children safe and engaged<br />
in creative learning activities while their<br />
parents worked.<br />
n 417 high school students gained handson<br />
work experience through subsidized<br />
internships.<br />

The baby had leukemia and we had no money to go back and forth<br />
to the hospital and my husband lost his job. The program I came<br />
to at CAMBA was Healthy Families. They told me what I had to do<br />
to apply for SSI and helped me through the Food Stamp process.<br />
They brought me support. The peer support groups helped me to<br />
learn a lot. n My caseworker listens to me and lets me express<br />
myself in any way I want. That’s special because I don’t have any<br />
family here and someone is listening to me. She communicates<br />
with me and supports me and understands me. n It was a hard<br />
time but now it’s passed. I feel better because I hope the cancer<br />
doesn’t come back again. CAMBA has a lot of opportunities and<br />
people should give it a try because it offers great support to women<br />
and families. CAMBA has helped me emotionally.<br />

I heard about CAMBA right after I was diagnosed. If you need help with housing,<br />
immigration, education, this is a great place to go. I was trying to find a<br />
place to go where I could relate to people with the same problems that I have.<br />
Being newly diagnosed it was scary. I built a rapport with a lot of the case managers<br />
here. They are like friends besides being people that helped you. n This<br />
is my purpose to get that message out there and let people know that there’s<br />
help out there and we need to stop the spread of the virus. I get satisfaction out<br />
of just reaching just one person. Even though I’m HIV-positive I’m at the apex of<br />
my life, that’s how I see it... I feel really good about my future right now.<br />
James Harris<br />
CAMBA saved my life and I was very grateful for<br />
it. n CAMBA helped me get my benefits. n I was<br />
homeless for five years and have a drug history of<br />
39 years. n I’m here because the new people who<br />
are coming in need somebody here that’s been<br />
here for a while to guide them through the ropes.<br />
n Right now, I’m a Peer Educator with CAMBA’s<br />
Case Management and Supportive Services Program.<br />
n This is the best I have ever felt in my<br />
whole life. I always tell everyone - “Can A Man<br />
Become Appreciative? Yes I am”.<br />
2010 Outcomes<br />

I grew up with a lot of advantages. I went to college; I had a lot of good<br />
jobs. Substance abuse just destroyed so many parts of my life. Morris<br />
Manor is a great place to live. I came from a very rough situation and they<br />
took a risk on me. n They knew the problem areas in my life. They’ve<br />
helped me as far as getting a job. They have helped me finding doctors.<br />
They let me run a movie night here. I look at the staff as sort of the hub on<br />
a wheel. Things that they are not able to do themselves they’ll direct me<br />
towards those resources. Living at Morris Manor it’s a very safe environment.<br />
It’s just a good feeling after I’ve literally lived on Park Avenue and<br />
on a park bench. It’s a great starting point for me again. n CAMBA has<br />
simplified my life. I get support in every area: financially, spiritually, emotionally,<br />
educationally. That relieves me of a lot of worries... so I’m very<br />
hopeful about my future. Right here I have everything that I need.<br />

I lost my job because they were laying people off and they blamed it on the economy.<br />
I went a whole year without a job, owed my landlord over $8,000 and was on the verge<br />
of being evicted. Other than some help from my grandmother, I had to fend for myself.<br />
I was referred to come to CAMBA from Public Assistance. n My attorney has been<br />
great. There were days when I couldn’t go to court because I was still looking for a job.<br />
I had job interviews and she went to court and represented me and kept me updated.<br />
And then I ended up getting a job and I have been working for a year. She got down to<br />
the bottom of everything. Now, my name is going to be on the lease and my rent balance<br />
is zero. She still calls to check up on me, she referred me to a free CAMBA summer<br />
camp for my daughter. That shows that she cares. n CAMBA wants you to work, they<br />
don’t want you to be dependent. CAMBA directed me to places to look for jobs and<br />
they helped me with my resume. n I feel optimistic. I’m very happy that I was able<br />
to enroll in school and get a job. I’m able to maintain my bills now and I’m not facing<br />
eviction. I don’t think I would have gotten to this point if it weren’t for CAMBA so I’m<br />
very grateful. Things are better now a year later. I’m really happy about that. At the end<br />
of the rainbow there’s the pot of gold. There’s always hope.<br />
Parasram Kissoon<br />
I was in a truck accident. I didn’t have work and I was on disability,<br />
whatever I received was just enough to pay debts. I went<br />
to a company that advertised loan modification and I got ripped<br />
off $4,000! That’s life, it’s a learning process. I still get up and I<br />
have my self even though I’m hurt. I do things to get my house<br />
back together with my lawyer at CAMBA, I’m going to stick with<br />
it and if I have a problem I always pick up my phone and I always<br />
call my lawyer. n Things are too hard right now. People<br />
are struggling out there. But I feel very strong about my future,<br />
because I got my house back - which is one of the most important<br />
things. I feel my future is going to be very strong. I am very<br />
grateful to CAMBA for the wonderful service that they are doing<br />
for the poor people in the community that really need their help.<br />

shona stone<br />
sculpture<br />
CAMBA is proud to be one of the nation’s premiere purveyors<br />
of Shona sculptures. Proceeds from our Annual Sale and Exhibition<br />
of Stone Sculpture from Zimbabwe support our programs<br />
and services. Zimbabwe, a southern African country whose name<br />
literally means “the house of stone”, is known for its remarkable<br />
stone sculptors. Semi-abstract works created by artists of the country’s<br />
largest ethnic group can be found in the collections of many of<br />
the world’s most discerning art collectors, including the Museum of<br />
Modern Art in New York City, the Musée Rodin in Paris, the Rockefellers,<br />
and Queen Elizabeth II of England. CAMBA’s Annual Sale and Exhibition<br />
of Stone Sculpture from Zimbabwe features works by many noted<br />
and established sculptors, as well as the offerings of emerging artists.<br />
Our 1,500 square-foot gallery at 19 Winthrop<br />
Street provides exhibition space<br />
for many Shona sculptures at one time,<br />
making it one of the most impressive<br />
collections in the United States.<br />
Because of the deteriorating<br />
political climate in Zimbabwe<br />
and the resultant downturn<br />
in foreign tourism, there are<br />
few other venues for these<br />
artists to find a market for<br />
their work. CAMBA’s commitment<br />
to retaining a Shona gallery<br />
allows us both to offer these works<br />
at reasonable prices and to enable<br />
the sculptors to continue their artistic<br />
endeavors. These stone sculptures<br />
can be viewed and purchased by appointment,<br />
online and during our annual fall sale and<br />
exhibition. Forty percent of the purchase price of<br />
each sculpture is tax deductible. Proceeds from<br />
the sales benefit CAMBA and its programs.<br />
To learn more about CAMBA’s Shona sculpture<br />
and view items available for purchase,<br />
please go online to: www.shonasculptures.com.<br />

how you<br />
can help<br />
For 30 years, your generous support has enabled CAMBA to remain flexible in<br />
response to community needs and to respond immediately to families and individuals<br />
in crisis.<br />
Types of Gifts<br />
n Cash - This is the simplest and most immediate way for you to support<br />
CAMBA. Gifts may be made by check or online at www.camba.org. You can<br />
make a greater impact than you think - and it couldn’t be easier. Become a<br />
CAMBA Sustainer by allocating an automatic withdrawal from your checking<br />
account/credit card of at least $10.00 per month. You will be recognized<br />
as a Sustainer in CAMBA publications and on the CAMBA website. You can<br />
also mail a check, payable to CAMBA, Inc., to the attention of the Development<br />
Office at CAMBA, 1720 Church Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226.<br />
n Corporate Matching Gifts – You can increase the value of your gift -often up to<br />
100 % - if you or your spouse works for a company with a matching gift program.<br />
Please check with your human resources department for more information.<br />
n Bequests – If you don’t have a will, you are leaving it up to the courts to decide<br />
what happens to your assets. After first providing for your loved ones, you<br />
can help to assure that CAMBA will be there for those who are facing poverty,<br />
homelessness and other barriers to self sufficiency, for many years to come.<br />
n IRA Transfers – If you own a traditional or a Roth IRA, and are age 70 ½ or<br />
older, you can directly transfer up to $100,000 a year to CAMBA, without<br />
having to pay taxes on the withdrawal. NOTE: This rule does not apply to<br />
employer sponsored retirement plans.<br />
n Memorial/Honorary Gifts – Remember or honor a friend or family member<br />
by means of a gift to CAMBA. We will promptly notify the designated recipient<br />
of the gift.<br />
n Gifts of Appreciated Stock – If you own low-yielding stocks, mutual funds or<br />
other securities that are worth more than you paid for them, you can contribute<br />
them to CAMBA, get a tax deduction for the full current value, and avoid<br />
the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold the assets outright.<br />
In effect, you are allowed to use the “paper profits” in the investment to<br />
make a larger gift to CAMBA than you can make from current income. If you<br />
wish to contribute securities that are worth less that your original purchase<br />
price, it is best to sell them, take the loss, and then get a tax deduction for<br />
contributing the cash proceeds to CAMBA.<br />
n Other Planned Gifts – You can also donate various trusts, annuities and gifts<br />
of significant non-cash assets, such as real estate to CAMBA.<br />
n In-kind Contributions – CAMBA’s programs have continuing needs for gifts<br />
of clothing in good condition, toys, books, furniture, and food to stock the<br />
food pantry.<br />
Please call CAMBA’s Development Director at 718-287-2600 ext.20265 to discuss<br />
how you can make a contribution that is compatible with your current resources<br />
and philanthropic objectives.<br />
