I got two unexpected projects toward the end of the year: Annual Reports for nonprofits.

It’s been a while since I worked on an annual report, and I got TWO at the same time! Not one to turn down work, I accepted and learned a whole lot about two very interesting nonprofits in the Twin Cities.

The Hamm Clinic is a mental health clinic whose mission reminds us: “There is no health without mental health.”

From their website:

Hamm Clinic’s Mission is to provide:

Quality, culturally responsive outpatient mental health assessment and treatment for adults in our community, particularly the underserved and those who are unable to afford the full cost of care.

Expert training and education for mental health professionals.

Leadership in our community for effective mental health care.

The package included a six-panel annual report, two versions of an appeal letter, a remittance envelope, and an outside mailing envelope, all beautifully printed, assembled and mailed by Cornerstone Copy Center in Burnsville, my favorite vendor. They never disappoint and always meet my most ridiculous deadlines.
