| FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1: | LIFT ORLANDO STRENGTHENS NEIGHBORHOODS THROUGH MIXED-INCOME HOUSING, CRADLE TO CAREER EDUCATION, HEALTH AND WELLNESS, AND ECONOMIC VIABILITY. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4d | EDUCATION (Total: $127,227; Grants: $33,853) Lift Orlando's Cradle-to-Career organizational objective is to partner with local schools to deliver a high performing educational pathway beginning with early childhood all the way to promising careers. Lift Orlando supports the educational pathway by serving as a Community Quarterback; engaging community members and coordinating alignment between the community, corporations and best in class not-for-profits, while measuring and evaluating progress toward our shared goals. In 2021, Lift Orlando continued its support of the West Lakes Early Learning Center (ELC) by participating in fundraising, community engagement and programmatic partner coordination. The ELC provides high quality and affordable early childhood education for the children of West Lakes. The ELC celebrated its first birthday on April 20, 2021. At the end of the first school year, 30 VPK children from the ELC graduated at Camping World Stadium's Varsity Club. The VPK children transitioned to kindergarten with the knowledge and skills needed to be successful in kindergarten and beyond. In April 2021, Lift Orlando assisted with the grand opening of the Jacqueline Bradley & Clarence Otis Family Branch Boys & Girls Club. Lift also aided with fundraising, recruiting, and connecting the club director with Lift's collective impact partners. The Club holds afterschool programming and summer camps and serves up to 150 children ages 6 to 18 year. In addition to the cutting-edge technology found in its STEM and computer labs and the traditional Club elements such as a game room, gymnasium and library, this Club boasts music rooms, a recording arts studio, a dance studio and stage. Lift Orlando also supported the Jacqueline Bradley & Clarence Otis Family Branch Boys & Girls Club and the ELC by providing coordination and funding of Lively Letters, an alternative phonics program for the Boys & Girls Club tutors and ELC teachers. Lively Letters is a research-based and clinically proven, multi-sensory reading program that turns plain, abstract letters and sounds into lively characters. Lift Orlando also purchased the needed materials for implementation of the Orton Gillingham training, for the 16 trained teachers. The Orton Gillingham approach is considered the "gold standard" method for ensuring students with dyslexia and any student struggling to read, successfully learn to read, write and spell. Offered at no fee to participants in partnership with Lift Orlando's partner Polis Institute, MVP Families provides year-round programming that supports families with a two-generation approach through developmental relationship building and family wrap-around support services. In 2021, 105 individuals participated in programming with 61 additional adults and children participating in events. HOUSING (Total: $90,636; Grants: $30,240) One of Lift Orlando's goals for housing is to ensure the availability of high-quality, mixed-income housing that elevates the standard of living for low-income families, while providing the comfort of quality amenities that attract new residents. To that end, Lift Orlando partnered to develop Pendana, Phase I of Lift Orlando's housing strategy, a mixed-income multifamily apartment community which opened in 2018. In 2021, Lift Orlando paid off its note payable for the land. In May of 2020, Pendana Senior Residences (Phase II) started safely welcoming West Lakes seniors age 62 and over. In 2021, Lift Orlando and partners began providing free programming to Pendana Senior residents, including healthy eating classes with cooking demos from local nutritionist Hebni Nutrition, chair yoga, information workshops supplying guidance and help in navigating Medicare health coverage, provided turkeys for Pendana Senior Residences' Thanksgiving Feast, and a monthly coffee hour with Lift Orlando staff to provide feedback on living at Pendana and share information about program partners. Lift Orlando continues to be actively engaged with the management company of Pendana at West Lakes and the Senior Residences to facilitate community engagement and desired outcomes in the community. Lift worked alongside Columbia Residential and Apartment Life to deliver on-site programs, services, and community-wide events such as Back-to-School Bash (270 attendees), the donation of backpacks for local students, and Trunk-or-Treat. Staff attended a New Resident Soiree, allowing staff to meet new residents and introduce them to community partners. Lift sponsored Goodwill Industries to develop and coordinate workshops in Rental Assistance, Holiday Budgeting, and Child Tax Credit at Pendana. Lift Staff also participated in the long-term asset management of the properties. Lift Orlando assisted West Lakes Partnership (WLP) in their ongoing community beautification project. The West Lakes Residential Paint and Beautification Program works to improve housing stock within the Communities of West Lakes. Sponsored by Lift Orlando and administered by WLP, this initiative provides matching grants that support West Lakes homeowners' beautification efforts. The program offers 10-15 owner-occupied homes of legacy residents (who have lived in the neighborhood for at least ten years) up to $3,000 toward home painting. The program also purchases flowers for residents (renters or homeowners) to plant. The program aided 15 of West Lakes homes during 2021. |
