THE MAJOR PROGRAM OF ASSISTANCE LEAGUE OF EL PASO, OPERATION SCHOOL BELL, PROVIDES APPROPRIATE NEW SCHOOL CLOTHING TO STUDENTS WHO HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED BY SCHOOL PERSONNEL AS LIVING IN POVERTY REGARDLESS OF RACE, RELIGION, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, OR HANDICAPPING CONDITIONS. IT IS GENERALLY UNDERSTOOD THAT WHEN BASIC HUMAN NEEDS ARE NOT MET, A CHILD'S HOME LIFE CAN BE AFFECTED, WHICH NEGATIVELY IMPACTS THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION OF THAT CHILD. THE GOAL IS TO PROVIDE 2,500 PUBLIC SCHOOL CHILDREN IN GRADES K THROUGH 5 WITH SCHOOL CLOTHING THIS YEAR; TO INCREASE THEIR SELF-ESTEEM AND IN TURN IMPROVE SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT.

SINCE ITS INCEPTION, OPERATION SCHOOL BELL VOLUNTEERS HAVE CLOTHED OVER 109,000 STUDENTS. CHILDREN RECEIVE THREE PAIR OF UNIFORM PANTS OR JEANS, TWO SHIRTS IN THE REQUIRED SCHOOL COLORS AND ONE SHIRT IN THE STUDENT'S CHOICE OF COLOR, PACKAGES OF SOCKS AND UNDERWEAR, A PAIR OF ATHLETIC SHOES, A HOODED ZIPPER JACKET, AND A PERSONAL HYGIENE BAG CONTAINING HAIR AND DENTAL CARE SUPPLIES. THE CURRENT AVERAGE COST PER STUDENT IS $95. 14758 PASO (Put A Smile On) Bear, the second philanthropic program administered by Assistance League, is a program that provides cuddly teddy bears to first-responder service agencies; such as police and fire departments and other agencies, so they may in turn hand them out to children involved in traumatic situations or, sometimes, to adults in the same circumstances. 14288 The third program is Assault Survivor Kits (ASK). Personal hygiene items and some simple clothing items are provided to sexual assault and/or rape victims (men, women and children) in the hospital (in collaboration with The Center Against Family Violence response services) when the clothing they are wearing has to be confiscated as evidence by the police. 18219 WE HELP OTHERS 18219 300043 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 2 0 true 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 13 13 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true false X TREASURER 9155640600 2728 E YANDELL DR EL PASO TX 79903 X FLO MCCLASKEY BOARD MEMBER 15.48 0.0 X 0 0 0 MARY ANNE BENSON THIRD VICE PRESIDENT 15.27 0.0 X X 0 0 0 MARY LOU LONG EDUCATION/ ORIENTATION 3.96 0.0 X X 0 0 0 JILL HORNER FIRST VICE PRESIDENT 14.44 0.0 X X 0 0 0 KATHERINE WOOD TREASURER 5.04 0.0 X X 0 0 0 PATRICIA HOOVER ASSISTEENS COORDINATOR 9.56 0.0 X X 0 0 0 NANCY EVANS PARLIAMENTARIAN 5.79 0.0 X X 0 0 0 JEANIE DODGE BOARD MEMBER 1.65 0.0 X 0 0 0 CAROLYN GRANTHAM PRESIDENT 4.75 0.0 X X 0 0 0 LISA MIERTSCHIN PUBLIC RELATIONS 31.54 0.0 X X 0 0 0 RITA PATON FOURTH VICE PRESIDENT 23.02 0.0 X X 0 0 0 JUDY ROSEBERRY CORRESPONDING SECRETARY 7.6 0.0 X X 0 0 0 KATHY PEARSON THRIFT SHOP 13.42 0.0 X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 false false false NONE 0 10433 46079 203009 259521 0 35256 35256 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 439690 197911 241779 241779 PARKING RENTAL INCOME 24000 24000 MISCELLANEOUS 18495 18495 42495 579051 284274 35256 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 17560 0 17560 0 0 0 0 4310 0 4310 0 2942 0 1019 1923 0 0 0 28356 17569 1325 9462 0 0 0 0 0 44600 26760 4460 13380 17913 10728 1707 5478 ADMINISTRATIVE 8256 0 4005 4251 CLOTHING 214072 214072 0 0 FUNDRAISER-TICKETS & CAR WASH 1629 0 0 1629 MISCELLANEOUS 6298 7172 -475 -399 46853 23742 12513 10598 392789 300043 46424 46322 249560 2989 1082198 1396859 0 0 5046 23851 0 0 0 0 0 0 168122 145570 49054 46813 1576565 761984 739348 814581 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2293328 2430663 61961 13209 0 0 5440 5265 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 67401 18474 X 2215927 2412189 10000 0 2225927 2412189 2293328 2430663 186262 X X false true X true false X 194418 127461 190721 186162 259521 958283 266281 410444 454311 481323 439690 2052049 0 0 0 460699 537905 645032 667485 699211 3010332 0 0 0 3010332 7071 4770 7500 11539 35256 66136 0 7071 4770 7500 11539 35256 66136 0 17500 20000 22000 27197 42495 129192 485270 562675 674532 706221 776962 3205660 0.93907 0.95105 0.02063 0.01300 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 270817 270817 1232944 719881 513063 72804 42103 30701 814581 583401 4350 4350 579051 579051 397139 4350 4350 392789 392789 LEND-A-HAND 31154 31154 1629 DONATIONS/UNDER 11578 11578 2 3347 3347 46079 46079 1629 1629 44450 REVIEW OF FORM 990 THE FORM 990 IS PRESENTED TO AND REVIEWED WITH THE TREASURER AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
