don't underestimate the Power of a smileDear friends of Room at the Inn,

Our Annual Report is a summation of the activities, efforts and the support we receive to carry out the mission of Room at the Inn. There are a lot of numbers and percentages used to provide a concise and overall picture of what has taken place during the past year. However, the numbers do not always show the “real” difference made in the lives of those coming to Room at the Inn for help. That is not always easy to quantify, but for the volunteers working at our night sites and the staff interacting with the clients on a daily basis, we see glimpses of transformation taking hold and we celebrate the positive changes taking place.

There is inherent truth to the statement made by one of the earliest television motivational speakers, Leo Buscaglia. He often talked about the power of love and loving one’s self. He is credited with the statement: “Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”

This statement is so true and those of us who work and volunteer at Room at the Inn witness these random acts of kindness every day and see how important they are to the people we are serving.

As we reflect on the various accomplishments of the past year, I also

want to convey to our supporters that there is power in helping others to believe in what they can overcome. Accordingly, our clients gain a sense of accomplishment as a result of our combined efforts to help them achieve their goals. When we truly listen and offer words of encouragement, we are letting our clients know that they matter.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supports our endeavors in any way. You may not always get to see the smiles or share in the delight when a client gets a job, or witness the happiness when a family moves from our shelter into an apartment they can now call home, but your concern, kindness and support makes all of this possible.

Peace and Blessings!
