The Another Way Toy Drive is a much cherished tradition. The fun starts with a caricature artist drawing holiday pictures of children and their families as they wait in line to enter a magical winter wonderland. Deserving children and their families are greeted by presents piled high, holiday music, delicious treats, expertly decorated Christmas trees and of course, Santa Claus. Happy guests eagerly strike a holiday pose with Santa. For many, this will be their first photo with him – and bound to be a memory they will never forget. Each child is also presented with a gift selected with his or her wish in mind. Gifts include books, dolls, action figures, art sets, clothes and much more. Businesses and members of our community have been coming together for 18 years with Another Way to bring Christmas cheer to our neighbors in need and we hope you to will be part of this tradition to serve.

ABOUT ANOTHER WAY Mission: To improve the quality of life and promote independence and inclusion in society for developmentally disabled individuals and families living in San Bernardino and Riverside counties.
Another Way’s purpose is to fund the unmet emergency needs of Inland Regional Center consumers and their family members who meet its financial criteria and who are ineligible for assistance from the existing network of community resources. Another Way helps pay for rent, utilities, food, clothing, mobility equipment, medications, dental work, burials and other such necessities. Founded in 1986, Another Way remains the only employee-sponsored program among the state’s 21 Regional Centers. It is an innovative solution to meeting the needs of clients when Regional Center funding is restricted by State guidelines. With one FTE (the Another Way Coordinator), Another Way is a volunteer-driven organization. Another Way is a self-sustaining emergency fund that is maintained and administered by Inland Regional Center staff who donates their time and talent. Another Way is funded by donations received from payroll deductions from staff, an annual golf tournament, grants, corporate and individual donations. All activities of Another Way are subject to private and state audits.

Another Way’s 3nd Annual Bowling Tournament
2019-04-13 12:00 - 15:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Empire Bowl, 940 W Colton Ave, Redlands, CA, 92374, United States
Come join Another Way at Empire Bowl in Redlands and enjoy a fun day at the alley while raising money to help children and adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. Prizes will be given to Highest Team Game; Lowest Team Game; Single Highest Game Score; Lowest Game Score; and of course, most gutter balls. There will be great food, music, and all kinds of fun games to participate in, not to mention the opportunity to win a raffle prize. All Bowlers receive three hours of play time, shoes, a finishers medal, the opportunity to win trophies and prizes, a trip to the Buffet- Shakey’s Pizza & mojos (potatoes), chicken, soda and dessert. ABOUT ANOTHER WAY Another Way’s focus is on those who are the most vulnerable of Inland Empire residents – children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities who live at or below poverty level. We also serve their families because many rely on caregivers for support. Thirty-five percent of Inland Regional Center’s clients are considered low-to-very low income based on federal poverty guidelines. Sixty-five to 70% of our clients are eligible for some type of public benefit. For our Inland Regional Center’s adult clients the figure is closer to 90%.
A report from the Center for Economic and Policy Research further details the issue, “People with disabilities account for a larger share of those experiencing poverty than people in all other minority, ethnic and racial groups combined and are even a larger group than single parents.” The report goes on to explain, “The extra cost associated with living with a disability such as purchasing expensive equipment like wheelchairs and catheters or obtaining specialized medical attention keep many disabled people and their families in poverty.”
In addition, “Most people with developmental disabilities receive monthly Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments of $870 per month ($10,440 per year) as their sole source of income…”
These figures show how difficult survival can be when the average rent in San Bernardino County is estimated at $900 per month and your income is $870.
Further complicating the issue of poverty is the high unemployment rates in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. Currently, the unemployment rate in San Bernardino County is 10.5% and in Riverside County 7.3% both being much higher than the National Average of 5.6%. For individuals with disabilities, this means there will be much more competition for employment. Couple this with the low rate of individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities able to secure a job, and you have a recipe for disaster when no life-line is in place.
For many of these individuals, Another Way is that life-line. Another Way is a last resort resource for these individuals when an emergency arises such as a job loss, hospital stay, loss of a caregiver, loss of a roommate, accident, etc. We strive to be more than a band-aid solution and seek to address the root problem by including case management oversight as part of our programs.
