------------------------------------------

We would like to thank everyone who donates to the UDJ Food Bank
Fund Drive and to the Community Center throughout the year. The
drive is fast approaching again. All of your support will enable
us to keep providing for the families in need this year. Your
support is very appreciated.

This summer, we celebrated 36 Years of service to our
ever-changing community. The UCC has become the community's
agent for helping thousands of people in this area to meet
urgent needs and develop self-sufficiency. We work in
partnership with many local agencies to address the causes
and effects of poverty and other forms of distress. We provide
assistance to members of the Ukiah and Mendocino Coast
communities. As a result of our affiliation with the Coast
we are now collectively known as the "Community Resource
Centers of Mendocino County" but continue to do business
as the Ukiah Community Center.

While the UCC began with a mission enriching personal and
community life, its programs have increasingly been driven
by the pressures of poverty. Our mission translates into
saved lives and changed lives. Our mission is "Providing
Community Assistance to meet urgent needs and promote
self-sufficiency. We are striving to end hunger and
homelessness in Mendocino County."

The number of people seeking food, shelter, and related support
has exploded. The Food Bank now serves 3,000 people onsite and
another 2,500 through 12 remote locations and 3 pantries around
Mendocino County.

We are a non-profit organization that offers a combination of
temporary assistance, information and referrals, and supportive
programs. We help people develop solutions to the challenges of
crisis and poverty. Our services include a Day Shelter, food aid,
emergency housing, crisis intervention, case management, and
referral to community services. Part of Mendocino County's
Continuum of Care the Fort Bragg and Ukiah Community Centers
are proud to be offering critical services to the less fortunate
citizens of Mendocino County.
