2016 Annual Reportconnecting cultures & creating
community through music & arts
What is a day like in the life of LEAF? There is a weaving of cultural arts educations pro-grams for youth happening across our local and global communities, logistics and event planning, global engagement, donor and member connections, exploring funding resources, taking good care of LEAF teaching artists, collaborating with partners, designing marketing pieces, booking future performing artists, reflection, taking care of festival goers and ven-dors, keeping the 2020 vision for the future guiding steps forward, and lots of LEAF Love!
As I visualize a typical day a few scenes come to life that remind me of why we do what we do: Arusha One Mic teens wait eagerly at the studio door with their new songs in hand they plan to record, Cristina and her younger sister arrive at El Tejar and quickly pick up their mandolin and guitar and start practicing while their friends join, Easel Rider Art Mobile is on the move to Shiloh and today the kids will learn the traditions of talking sticks and make ones to take home, Nex is teaching his One Mic students at Burton St. how to mix their beats, Karen practices her jazz notes with Mr. Gary, and 68 kids are at the LEAF house in Kigali eagerly soaking up the Rwandan dances. Cultural arts & music are alive in the neighborhoods!
As we take a look back to 2016, I am fill with an abundance of gratitude for a year that changed the future of LEAF! The LEAF Love Endowment Fund journey to reach the $1mil-lion goal was a guiding action of the year. It changed my life, LEAF, and the future of LEAF programs. Over the year, myself along with board and staff spent sweet time one on one with many longtime LEAFers. They shared their LEAF traditions, stories and why LEAF & the mission is important to them and their passions. I was overwhelmed by the generos-ity, kindness, and connection as well as hearing the impact LEAF had in people’s lives and families.
During LEAF Festival in October, the $1million pledge goal was reached by pledges from 96 generous donors with the final gift being from LEAF Member Charles Gwinn who asked years ago, “Does LEAF have an endowment fund?”. The full circle was very LEAFy!

A WORD FROM OUR DIRECTOR
What does this journey mean for LEAF’s future impact in the world? As the pledges are fulfilled and the endowment fund grows, LEAF is assessing LEAF Schools & Streets and International programs for impact and importance in community development, youth healthy development and cultural preservation. In addition, we are reviewing strength of partnerships and community needs. The LEAF Love Endowment Fund will empower us to shift from one year partnerships to life long sustaining partnerships! Imagine being able to say to Alexis Rodriquez, Ngabe-Bugle Culture Keeper, Prosjekt Haiti, Deaverview Com-munity, and others that LEAF is committing to always supporting the LEAF program in your community as long as the goals for Healthy Youth Development, community build-ing and cultural preservation goals are being honored and met. You can count on LEAF! For any community, especially those with limited resources and fragile history, this depth of commitment deepens the connections and expands the possibilities for now and future generations.
It is our hope, this annual report gives you a glimpse of LEAF’s impact, dedication and moments of life-changing magic. If you would like to learn more or share, myself or another lead staff is available for a walk or tea. Just contact the LEAF office.
LEAF Love & Gratitude,
Jennifer Pickering | Executive Director

Late in January 2016, LEAF Southside Drummers, LEAF Delta House Jazz Band, their Teaching Artists (Gary, Imhotep, Katie & Logan), Community Coordinators, and parents hit the road to Atlanta for the 14th Annual Honda Battle of the Bands. The LEAF crew of 40 were mezmerized with this inspirational journey to appreciate and celebrate this powerhouse musical tradition of the country’s top marching bands from Historically Black Coleges and Universities (HBCUs). The “battle” featured bold stunning musical perfor-mances, choreography, and finale’ drumline. Hardly anyone could believe it when Ludacris and Musiq Soulchild performed as surprise guests. The powerful journey was supported by many from the LEAF family, including a free lunch from Raging Burrito!
