Call For Entries Art and Artisan Fair at Baker Industries October 24 – 25, 2015
A juried event benefiting Baker Industries, a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit work rehabilitation program serving adults with intellectual and physical disabilities, recovering substance abusers, individuals on parole or probation, and the homeless.
Our Impact: While Baker Industries works to directly impact the quality of life of its program participants, the results are much more far-reaching: recidivism rates are reduced, welfare rolls are lowered, and taxpayer rolls are increased.
Our Bottom Line: Baker Industries accepts no government funding. Our administrative costs are 8.6% of our operating expenses. 70% of revenue comes from payment of the jobs we do for our customers. The balance is provided by individuals and organizations willing to make charitable contributions to our operating costs.
