Volunteer Profile: Linda BlantonJust a FriendTwenty-year-old Krystal Malkoch credits Sweetser mentor volunteer Linda Blanton with changing her attitude toward school - ultimately leading to her becoming the first person in her family to graduate from high school.

“I’ve had a lot of bad stuff in my life,” Krystal said. “But when I hang out with Linda, we have lots of fun. She makes me happy. If I’m down, she does something that makes me happy. I look up to her a lot.”

Linda Blanton, a retired U.S. Army nurse, mother, and grandmother, has mentored six Sweetser children. She first read about Sweetser in the newspaper, called up, and agreed to mentor a boy who was one of seven children in a dysfunctional family.

“It’s kind of like you’re just a friend,” she explained. “He liked to go bowling, and to play catch and to walk on the four-wheeler trails. And that’swhat we did.”

Currently Linda mentors two teenage girls. “As a mentor, you give a different view, a different outlook on life, not necessarily better, but different,” Linda said. “You expose them to different things that they may not have experienced before.”

She has taken the girls camping, boating, and to see a live play. She has also exposed them to volunteerism at a food bank, a clothing bankand a humane society. In fact, the girls volunteered for eight hours through a Sweetser program and qualified for Disney’s Give a Day, Get aDay volunteerism rewards program. They had vouchers for entrance into a Disney park - and Linda drove them to Florida on a 10-day trip!

As a mentor, Linda tends to get calls during family crises. She has even had children stay with her while a parent was hospitalized. “You become almost part of their family,” Linda said.

Despite the trials and stresses of mentoring, Linda says the rewards are greater. She feels the appreciation of the children in their smiles.

And the Sweetser staff show their appreciation through everything from coupons to take kids for pizza to volunteer service awards. “They really appreciate their volunteers, partly because their budgets are always being cut,” Linda said.

Linda lives on Bailey Island. She has a grown daughter, Keala, in Sanford, and a one-year-old grandson named Caleb.

Donations Remain Strong to Assist Charity Care

Todd E. HenryDirector of Development

We received more than 2,500 donations in the past fiscal year to support Sweetser’s ongoing work throughout the state. These donations totaled nearly one million dollars thanks to the generosity of individuals, foundations, small and large companies, towns and even Sweetser clients.

We are particularly grateful to Mr. John T. (Tom) Gorman, Jr. who passed away on February 10, 2010 after a brief illness. Mr. Gorman was a well known philanthropist and longtime friend of Sweetser. He was a member of the Cornelius Sweetser Heritage Society and bequeathed a gift of $200,000 to ensure that our mission remains strong.

In addition, another $1.1 million from Sweetser’s endowment investment income was utilized for program support and charitable care.

Thanks to the support of new and longtime supporters, Sweetser will continue a tradition of helping those who need our services the most. Your commitment is appreciated.

Donor Profile: Chris EmmetGiving BackWall Street investor Chris Emmet first arrived at Sweetser in 1954 at the age of eleven. His mother was in the midst of a divorce and struggling with four children, and Chris was acting out.

During his years living on the Moody Street campus in Saco, Chris worked with a psychologist and case worker and joined Sweetser’s Little League team.

“That was an important part of my life,” he said, “because it made me feel good about myself.”

From the Sweetser School, Chris spent one year at public school in Kennebunk and received a partial scholarship to Northfield Mount Hermon, a prep school in Western Massachusetts. After Mount Hermon, Chrisearned degrees from Bowdoin College and Cornell Business School. In 1967 he went to work on Wall Street.

For two decades he has been giving financially to Mount Hermon, Bowdoin and Cornell to provide scholarships for students from Maine.

“I enjoy giving back because I’m in a position to do so,” Chris said. “I like to contribute to education. Sweetser is education, but it is also more thaneducation, it’s more important.”

Chris has also been a behind-the-scenes benefactor at Sweetser, which he credits with turning his life around as a child.

Over the past decade he realized that he had more to give than just money. For one thing, he had a sailboat that he kept off the coast ofMaine in the summers.

In 2001, Chris teamed up with a Sweetser counselor to take three troubled teenage boys on a weeklong sail, stopping at Mount Desert Isle,Isle-le-Haut, Camden, Vinalhaven, Deer Island and Stonington. The boys ate and slept on the boat and did lots of hiking on their stops.

“It was something they had never done before and may never do again,” Chris said. “Whatever you have to give, give and make the world a better place.”

Chris also has a passion for fundraising, and in 2007 he was elected to the Sweetser Board of Directors.

“I haven’t been getting to as many Board meetings as I’d like,” he admitted, explaining how much his life has changed over the past three years.

Following a divorce from his wife of 44 years, Chris met his present wife Karol in a Costa Rican coffee shop. He was smitten with her andthey married in 2008. They bought a coffee plantation - a good investment - in Karol’s native country. Chris already owned a horse farm inOldwick, New Jersey. And then there’s the business of trading municipal bonds - which Chris does from his home offices, two weeks amonth from New Jersey and two weeks from Costa Rica.

“I have a 46-year-old son who works with me on Wall Street and I have a one-year-old son,” Chris said. “I’ll be taking Thomas to soccer practicewhen I’m eighty!”

Client Profile: TyanneSweetser GraduateTyanne Sauve first knew she wanted to be a florist when she was in fourth grade and her friend’s mom would let the kids help in her flower shop. Today, halfway through a degree program at Rittner’s School of Floral Design in Boston, Tyanne is well on her way to fulfilling that childhood dream.

“If it wasn’t for Sweetser, I probably wouldn’t have graduated from high school,” Tyanne said. “I had a really bad attitude - a mood disorder - and in public school if I got frustrated I would walk out of class.”

Unfortunately, walking out would only get her suspended.

In the spring of 2007 Tyanne refused to go back to ninth grade and was placed in a family crisis unit, which then led to a placement at WestCottage on Sweetser’s residential campus. After more than a year there, she went to Family Focus over the summer of 2008. From there, she movedback home with her mother in South Berwick.

Through all these transitions, Tyanne attended the Sweetser School from 2007 until graduating in 2010, officially receiving her diploma from RSU 35.

“The program is based on you individually rather than a group altogether,” Tyanne said, explaining that this meant that she could work at her ownpace, enough to keep her frustration level down.

The Sweetser School also encouraged Tyanne to think about her interests and setting pre-vocational goals. She worked at the greenhouse on campus one summer, showing natural ability with plants and flowers. Sweetser staff helped Tyanne get a part-time job off-campus at Artistry inBloom in Saco, where for more than a year she was mentored by business owner and florist Debra Davis.

Tyanne proved she was able to successfully balance school, her Sweetser mental health treatment plan and outside employment.

One day, thinking about college, Tyanne Googled “floral school” and “New England” and found Rittner’s School of Floral Design. She broughtinformation about the school to Artistry in Bloom to ask Debra for her opinion - and found out that Debra was an alumna. And so was that momwho first introduced Tyanne to floral design.

Through nominations from Sweetser staff, Tyanne received a Hawkes Scholarship that fully covers her six-month program at Rittner’s.

Tyanne lives with her father in Middleton, Massachusetts, where she can commute by train to her classes in Boston, and spends weekends in Mainewith her mother and anticipates graduating with degrees in Floral Business Management and Floral Design.

“Sweetser may be tough at times,” she said, “but overall they helped me throughout my life.”

Employee Profile: Tom BouchardCommitted to Caring

It has been more than 30 years since Carl Pendleton, now CEO at Sweetser, recruited Tom Bouchard to leave his public school teaching position and become a special education teacher at Sweetser.

“I never expected to stay this long,” Bouchard laughed.

Over the years, Bouchard has been director of education, program manager for day treatment programs, and an integration specialist working with students as they prepare to leave Sweetser School and return to public school.

“Getting kids back into public school is what it’s all about,” he said, explaining that he works on educational plans to ease the transition. Each plan may address academic needs, provide a social worker to meet with the student weekly, address positive behavioral support or incentives, or just allow necessary time out from the classroom to regroup.

The best part of the job, he says, is experiencing students’ successes.

“Whether it’s the collaboration of working with the staff here and in the public school or working with the students directly, it’s all satisfying,” Bouchardsaid. “I’ve had the honor to work with amazing staff in the school. You do have to have a mindset about it. We have students who can be verbally andphysically aggressive. It can be very negative during the day if you let it get that way. On the other hand, no student wants to be bad. Kids may be reactingnormally to abnormal situations.”

Bouchard puts on a lot of miles, driving from his home in Lisbon to the Sweetser facility in Belfast two days a week and to the Sweetser facility inSaco three days a week in addition to serving on a variety of committees.

Sweetser is fortunate to have such a dedicated and loyal employee who is committed to his profession and helping kids. Tom’s passion to make a difference resembles so many other Sweetser staff who are doing their very best to help people find promising futures.
