THE ABCCAA INC., MISSION STATEMENT IS "TO MOBILIZE RESOURCES AND TO PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES, SERVICES, AND ADVOCACY THAT WILL EMPOWER PEOPLE TO REALIZE AND SUSTAIN SELF-SUFFICIENCY AND SELF-DIGNITY". EACH DAY WE CONTINUE TO OFFER THE BEST SERVICE AND PROGRAMMATIC ACTIVITIES TO THE LOW-INCOME AND OLDER POPULATIONS IN OUR COMMUNITY. WE STRIVE TO PROVIDE QUALITY SERVICES TO PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS BY PRODUCING THE ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL SUPPORT THAT SO MANY ARE MISSING. THE GOAL OF THE FGP IS TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON CRITICAL COMMUNITY NEEDS THROUGH VOLUNTEER SERVICE. OUR PROGRAM WILL ENABLE LOW INCOME PERSONS AGED 55 AND OVER TO REMAIN PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY ACTIVE, TO ENHANCE THEIR SELF-ESTEEM THROUGH CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN COMMUNITY SERVICE, AND TO PROVIDE THESE OLDER AMERICANS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PUT THEIR LIFE EXPERIENCES TO WORK AT LOCAL COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER STATIONS. FOSTER GRANDPARENTS SERVE AS MENTORS, TUTORS, AND CAREGIVERS FOR AT-RISK CHILDREN AND YOUTH WITH SPECIAL NEEDS THROUGH A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING SCHOOLS, HEAD START CENTERS, AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS, NON-PROFIT DAY-CARE CENTERS, AND FAITH-BASED STATIONS. THE PROGRAM ALLOWS CHILDREN WITH EXCEPTIONAL OR SPECIAL NEEDS OR CHILDREN WHO SEEM TO BE FALLING BEHIND TO ACHIEVE IMPROVED ACADEMIC, PHYSICAL, MENTAL, EMOTIONAL, AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT WHILE ASSISTING THEM TO LEARN AND GROW WITH A POSITIVE SELF-IMAGE AND SENSE OF PERSONAL COMPETENCE. THE ONE-ON-ONE TIME WITH A FOSTER GRANDPARENT IS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR TO BE ABLE OBTAIN THESE POSITIVE RESULTS. THE FGP OF AIKEN, ALLENDALE, BARNWELL, AND EDGEFIELD COUNTIES WILL CAREFULLY AND STRATEGICALLY PLACE AN ESTIMATED 107 VOLUNTEERS, SERVING BETWEEN 15 AND 40 HOURS A WEEK AT THEIR ASSIGNED STATIONS. SOME OF THEIR SERVICE ACTIVITIES WILL INCLUDE READING, WRITING, SOCIAL SKILLS, LIBRARY SERVICES, PRE-ELEMENTARY DAY CARE, AND AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM TUTORING AND MENTORING. THE PRIMARY FOCUS AREA OF THIS PROJECT IS EDUCATION. THE REQUESTED CORPORATION FOR NATIONAL AND COMMUNITY SERVICE FEDERAL INVESTMENT OF $481,816 WILL BE SUPPLEMENTED WITH AT LEAST A TEN PERCENT ANTICIPATED NON-FEDERAL RESOURCE MATCH. RESEARCH INDICATES THAT BUILDING MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN VOLUNTEERS, SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES HAS A POSITIVE IMPACT AND THE FOSTER GRANDPARENT PROGRAM IS CONFIDENT IN OUR ROLE OF CONNECTOR OF THESE RELATIONSHIPS. THE PARTNERSHIPS WE HAVE FORMED PROVIDE A FIRM FOUNDATION FOR OUR FOCUS AREA OF EDUCATION AND ALL ASPECTS ASSOCIATED WITH IT. WE EXPECT THAT THE STUDENTS SERVED BY OUR THREE YEAR GRANT, WILL GROW TO BE PRODUCTIVE, CARING, AND RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS AS WELL AS LIFELONG LEARNERS. TEACHERS HAVE INDICATED THAT STUDENT INTEREST, MOTIVATION, AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTS INCREASE AS A RESULT OF WORKING WITH A SENIOR VOLUNTEER. JUST ONE OF THE BETTER-KNOWN BENEFITS OF VOLUNTEERING IS THE IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITY. THIS IS AN ADVANTAGE FOR THE VOLUNTEERS AND THE STUDENTS THEY SERVE. OUR AGENCY HAS LEARNED THROUGH THE YEARS THAT VOLUNTEERS ARE OFTEN THE GLUE THAT HOLDS A COMMUNITY TOGETHER AND OUR FOSTER GRANDPARENT PROGRAM IS STRONGER THAN EVER!
