Alexander Youth Network Announces
Critical Needs Fund
Stanley P. Greenspan Fund Will Help Families in
Treatment Cover Urgent Costs
Alexander Youth Network
proudly announees the Stanley P.
Greenspon Critieal Needs Fund
whieh will help eover unexpeeted
and emergent eosts assoeiated
with earing for ehildren in
Alexander’s treatment programs.
A sueeessful entrepreneur and in-
suranee businessman, Greenspon
was reeently inspired by the dedi-
eation of both leadership and
Alexander Youth Network staff.
Fie has given $40,000 to help the
Charlotte eommunity’s most vul
nerable families for the next five
years. For more information on
how Alexander uses eharitable
funds to help ehildren, visit
http: 11 WWW. alexanderyouthne t-
work.org/page.aspx?pid=349.
The Stanley P. Greenspon Crit
ieal Needs Fund provides funding
to families who need assistanee to
pay for medieally neeessary serv-
iees and other needs eritieal to
treatment and post-treatment fol
low-up. For some ehildren, a erit
ieal need is a replaeement pair of
eyeglasses. For other families it
eould be an overdue utility bill
that, left unpaid, would result in
diseonneetion - no light or heat in
the eold winter months. Beeause
these expenses do not direetly im-
paet eare, they are not eligible for
reimbursement. They are how
ever, neeessary to a family’s well
ness and well-being. Often,
Alexander’s program staff eovers
these expenses from their already
stretehed department budgets or
their own poekets.
Most of the ehildren who enter
Alexander’s treatment programs
eome from broken homes. Ap
proximately 10% are in the eus-
tody of the Department of Soeial
Serviees, and the majority live
under the poverty line. Many fam
ilies, due to their finaneial insta
bility, laek health insuranee, have
diffieulty with transportation, and
are frequently unable to provide
their ehildren with basie items.
Some ehildren enter treatment
after being removed from their
parents’ homes due to negleet or
abuse. Regularly, ehildren arrive
at Alexander with all their posses
sions in a small plastie bag.
“It’s hard to foeus on your
emotional health when your stom-
aeh is empty and your future is
uneertain,” said CEO Craig Bass.
“Thanks to Mr. Greenspon and his
family, our ehildren will have the
support they need, when they
need it.”
Stan Greenspon was born in
Raleigh at the end of the Great
Depression. Fie learned lessons of
kindness and eharity as a ehild
from his father, Louis, and his
mother, Etta. Fie attended UNC at
Chapel Flill and obtained his Mas
ter’s Degree at the University of
Georgia. Greenspon has had a
sueeessful eareer in the insuranee
industry in Charlotte building an
ageney whieh his son leads today.
Fie began his eharitable endeavors
to make life better for ehildren
who are ill either emotionally or
physieally. Greenspon also works
to help senior eitizens and edueate
the publie about the Floloeaust.
Greenspon’s personal mantra
regarding his philanthropie dona
tions is to request performanee re
porting of the end results at the
final reeipient level from the
ageney. These stories of people he
has helped further inspire his giv
ing eaeh year.
From eleven regional serviee
loeations, Alexander Youth Net
work serves ehildren and their
families from aeross the state with
