What is Variety – The Children’s Charity?Variety – the Children’s Charity provides children with
disabilities unique programs, experiences, and equipment, sothey may live life to the fullest and not be left out, left behindor excluded.
What the Programs offer through Variety?• Variety’s “My bike” Program
currently provides eligible childrenwith disabilities with a Rifton adaptivebicycle (with Rifton accessories) thatis individually customized, so theymay have the freedom of a bike andthe joy of riding alongside friends and family.
• Variety’s “My Stroller” Program cur-rently provides Kid Kart® Mighty Liteadaptive stroller to eligible kids withdisabilities for mobility and/or safetyin the community. Typically, a family must choose between
having a wheelchair or adaptive stroller.So, as a wheelchair is more necessary,an adaptive stroller allows for easier“on-the-go” mobility and participationin daily activities and throughout thecommunity. With an adaptive stroller,kids are no longer isolated and it has an immediate impact on their lives. For other (not necessary with mobility challenges), a child might need an adaptive stroller to stay safe while out in the community.
• Variety’s “My Voice” Program provides a communicationdevice (currently an iPad with a prescribed communicationapp) to eligible children with acommunication disorder to givethem a voice at all times – enabling kids to express theirthoughts, feelings, wants, and needs.
Who is eligible for Variety’s Programs?• Variety’s adaptive equipment programs serve children and
youth who have a documented disability; reside in Variety’s54-county service area; are 4 to 21 years of age; meet theincome guidelines; as well as the other eligibility requirementsoutlined in each application.

As information, families who have a child with disabilities typically experience greater expenses due to medical costs,therapy appointments, adaptive equipment, medications,and variety of other needs or circumstances.
• Service Area: Variety serves 42 counties in Pennsylvania:Adams, Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Bedford, Blair, Butler,Cambria, Cameron, Centre, Clarion, Clearfield, Clinton, Crawford, Cumberland, Dauphin, Elk, Erie, Fayette, Forest,Franklin, Fulton, Greene, Huntingdon, Indiana, Jefferson, Juniata, Lawrence, McKean, Mercer, Westmorland, and York,and 12 counties in West Virginia: Barbour, Brooke, Doddridge,Hancock, Harrison, Marion Marshall, Monongalia, Ohio, Preston, Taylor, and Wetzel.

stroller is $1,500, and one communication device is $1,200,Donation for Variety’s programs can also de designate to aspecific county to impact children in your own community.Donations can be given online, or through U.S. Mail with acheck being made out to “Variety” (please note any programor county designation on your donation, if applicable).

Did You Know??? “Tidbits”Colleen Garrison, Branch President at The Hershey Company
• Did you know you can’t call off a personal day (PBX)the day before or the day after a Holiday? (As per contract)
• An employeewho moves into a new area/buildingafter the vacation periods have been established musttake his/her vacation during the periods that remainopen. (As per contract)
• If you submit a restriction / Limitation for hours ordays, you must fill out FMLA Papers
• There is another New Process FMLA Leave;each Hershey employee should have received a letterfrom the company explaining the new process.
• Wage Continuance: If an employee is eligible (hired before 1/1/2017) for Wage Continuance and has notmissed more than 32 hours (8hr shift) or 36 hours (12hr shift) in the prior year you worked, will haveearned Wage Continuance for the next year.
Employees hired after (1/1/2017) and have 2 years ofservice worked at West Hershey will be eligible for Wage Continuance if you only missed less than 98.85%on your attendance rate.
Example: You have Wage Continuance for the year2018, but you are off work for a surgery for 6 weeks, youhave now missed more than 32 or 36 hours dependingon what shift you are on. So you will no longer haveWage Continuance for the year 2019.
Important Fact to Know: If you start Wage Continuanceat the end of 2018; Example: If your first day off work isDecember 10, 2018 and you continue to be off into 2019your wage continuance will continue into 2019. But ifyou come back to work for even 1 day in 2019 and thenare back off for the same incident, your Wage Continuancewill end and you will be on Accident and Sick pay insteadof Wage Continuance. Reason being, you came backand the Company will then relook at your attendance for the prior year of 2018 and because you were off formore than 32 or 36 hours you lose it.
