Seasons Greetings from the
staff, trainees, board and volunteers of
Power Inspires Progress.



As we celebrate this season, may we
Recognize the achievements of the past,
Commit to pursuing the future, and
Celebrate what is beautiful in life,
Now and in the year to come.
Our Mission: 

Power Inspires Progress operates small businesses in the inner city to provide positive, meaningful work opportunities for adults with employment barriers.  We teach basic education, life skills, work ethics and personal responsibility.  Trainees gain the knowledge and experience to be successful in the workforce.

Our Values:
Diversity.  Education.  Community.  Collaboration.



Dear Friends:

       Thank you for supporting the mission of Power Inspires Progress in 2011 through making financial contributions, volunteering your time, or patronizing Venice Catering or Venice on Vine pizza.  With your help, we provide on-the-job training for inner city residents with employment barriers.

       In 2011 50 adults have participated in  training at Venice on Vine and Venice Catering.  They cook great food while building skills, education and confidence. Our wonderful volunteers  join with us, tutoring, gardening, fixing computers, marketing, forwarding job leads and seeking funding to keep our program going.

      Please make a year end financial contribution today to help PIP continue this work.  Every dollar you give is matched by money we earn in our catering and restaurant businesses. Your donations help make PIP a place where adults can build the skills, strength, credentials and courage to move on in their lives. 

     We wish you and your loved ones a joyful holiday season. We hope that in 2012 you experience the power, inspiration and community that we build at Venice on Vine.
