OUR MISSION: TO BREAK THE CYCLE OF HOMELESSNESS AND POVERTY FOR FAMILIES AND CHILDREN.
2
Dear Friends,
Thanks in large part to the generosity of our community, ForKids
continues to rise to the challenge of meeting the exploding need for
services for homeless families. The good news is that, as of this writing,
ForKids is serving well over 250 families with life changing programs;
however, this good news is tempered by the continued increase in the
number of families we turn away and the lack of growth in funding from
our institutional funders. Turnaways, eligible families that we cannot
serve due to capacity constraints, have risen over 50% and no end is in
sight. The lingering effects of the recession will continue to impact our
community for years to come as many have exhausted their savings
and are just one unplanned bill away from becoming homeless. As a
program and not just a shelter, ForKids is able to prevent our families
from slipping through the cracks only to raise the next generation of the
homeless. We can stop this cycle.
The transformative effect of ForKids’ presence is on display on 38th
St. in Norfolk as evidenced by the beautification of nearby homes,
the private investment in the surrounding real estate and the recent
rebuilding of the city playground. What started as a single duplex
on a run-down block now encompasses thirteen apartments and a
central service center surrounded by white picket fences and rose
bushes tended to lovingly by our volunteers. ForKids continues to face
significant challenges as government funding has not kept up with the
increased demand for services and in many cases has declined. As a
result, ForKids has pushed for efficiencies, but we have been forced to
reduce the depth of services to remain fiscally sound. The community
continues to step up as your contributions approached 50% of our
budget this year and are projected to easily exceed that level next
year just to maintain the current levels of service. Further erosion of
our services is likely as stimulus funding expires in the year ahead.
With direct services in Norfolk, Suffolk and Chesapeake, ForKids is
now truly serving the region and hopes to break down historic barriers
between cities to develop a regional solution to the problem of family
homelessness.
Thank you again for your support and belief in the life changing work of
ForKids. We are making a difference in the lives of hundreds of families
and children at a time when they need us the most.

Jennifer’s storyJennifer is a motivated 18 year old who seemed to
always find herself in the wrong place with the wrong
crowd. When she and her mother entered the Elizabeth
Place Transitional Housing Program, she was on the
wrong path heading nowhere fast. She was currently
repeating 9th grade for the 3rd time and was on track
to fail for the 4th time. Just a few weeks after entering
the program, Jennifer was suspended from school for
fighting. To make matters worse, her classmate pressed
charges.
With her failing grades and court charges of assault
and battery, Jennifer felt hopeless until her ForKids
case manager suggested Commonwealth Challenge.
Commonwealth Challenge is a free military-based
program designed for at-risk youth in Hampton Roads.
It provides structure and training, so struggling students
can earn their GED. Given Jennifer’s involvement with
the NJROTC at Maury and her dream of joining the
military, the Commonwealth Challenge was the perfect
opportunity.
When approached with the idea, Jennifer’s face lit up
as she expressed her excitement to join the program.
She continued to attend tutoring and worked diligently
to participate in all the Children’s Services initiatives at
ForKids. Jennifer’s case manager and her mother’s case
manager labored to gather all the items Jennifer needed
for the Commonwealth Challenge, even donating some
items themselves.
With the necessary items in hand and the support of
ForKids, Jennifer joined Commonwealth Challenge
Youth Academy. Jennifer completed the Hard-Core Pre-
Challenge and was promoted from Candidate to Cadet.
Shortly thereafter, she wrote a letter to her mother
telling her how much she loved her. She wrote that she
was currently a road guard, but that she would soon be
promoted to squad leader.
At the end of her letter, Jennifer asked her mother
to thank ForKids for all they had done in helping her
“make a change in her life.” Jennifer is grateful for the
opportunity and has plans to join the Navy and attend
college after her graduation from Commonwealth
Challenge. 24% of homeless children graduate from high
school, but with the help of ForKids, well over 90% of
our kids graduated to the next grade (compared to 60%
nationally). Jennifer is a living example of breaking the
cycle of homelessness and poverty, and this is why we
do what we do.

FY09 represented another year of dramatic
growth and change at ForKids due to the
expanded regional presence of the agency
coupled with growing demand for services.
Net fixed assets increased to nearly $3.6
million, an increase of $1.5 million as a
result of the contribution of Suffolk House
($615,000) and the purchase of Dillon Place
($861,000).
Revenue growth reflects continued growth
in fundraising, the contribution of property
associated with Suffolk House along with
a number of one time gifts associated with
the merger including nearly $200,000 in
professional services that were donated to
complete the acquisition. The Dillon Place
purchase was funded by Government
Grants and a $200,000 loan.
I am once again pleased to report that
ForKids received its 18th consecutive audit
with “no findings” conducted by Cherry,
Bekaert & Holland.
Looking ahead, ForKids is continuing to
expand its services despite the challenging
governmental funding environment due to
the increasing need and the requests from
the communities we serve. Growth will
only be possible with the generous support
of the community although the Board of
Directors is working with staff to address
the corresponding fiscal challenges to
manage growth responsibly.
On behalf of the Board, thank you for your
support of ForKids’ meaningful work. We
ask for your continued support as we strive
to break the cycle of homelessness and
poverty for families and children in our
community.

TREASURER COMMENTARY
FY10 represented another year of dramatic growth
and change at ForKids due to the expanded regional
presence of the agency coupled with growing demand
for services. ForKids completed a healthy year hitting
its expense and revenue budgets with an outpouring
of support in June. The statements reflect the final
transactions associated with the addition of Suffolk
House. Services growth continued although revenues
and assets declined on an aggregate basis as we did
not have any major property acquisitions the year.
Community contributions grew to 45% of total revenues
and will exceed 50% in FY11.
I am once again pleased to report that ForKids received
its 19th consecutive audit with “no findings” conducted
by Cherry, Bekaert & Holland.
Looking ahead, ForKids is continuing to expand its
services but at a much slower rate as government
funding is stagnant at best. Growth will only be
possible with the generous support of the community
although the Board of Directors is working with staff to
address the corresponding fiscal challenges to manage
growth responsibly.
On behalf of the Board, thank you for your support of
ForKids’ meaningful work. We ask for your continued
support as we strive to break the cycle of homelessness
and poverty for families and children in our community.
