| Desc | UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY IS THE CATALYST THAT GALVANIZES INDIVIDUALS AND PUBLIC, PRIVATE, FAITH AND GOVERNMENTAL SECTORS TO WORK TOGETHER TO CREATE SOLUTIONS WHICH ENABLE INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES AND OUR COMMUNITY TO THRIVE. RECOGNIZING THAT NO SINGLE ORGANIZATION ALONE CAN SOLVE PRESSING COMMUNITY ISSUES, UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY WORKS THROUGH OUR MANY COMMUNITY PARTNERS PROVIDING ANNUAL FUNDING FOR SERVICES IN OUR FOCUS AREA'S OF EDUCATION, INCOME, HEALTH AND SAFETY NET SERVICES; OFFERING SPECIAL ONE-TIME GRANTS FOR NEW INITIATIVES AND EMERGENCY FUNDING; ACTING AS CONVENER TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY CONCERNS; AND FACILITATING COMMUNITY-WIDE PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES. ANNUAL FUNDING UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY HELPED OVER 100,000 LOCAL RESIDENTS IN 2016 BY TACKLING CRITICAL COMMUNITY ISSUES WITHIN FOUR PRIMARY FOCUS AREAS: EDUCATION, INCOME, HEALTH AND SAFETY NET SERVICES. MUCH OF OUR WORK IS CARRIED OUT THROUGH OVER 50 PROGRAMS IN COORDINATION WITH 34 AGENCY PARTNERS. ALL FUNDED PROGRAMS ARE IDENTIFIED AND EVALUATED THROUGH THE EFFORTS OF OUR COMMUNITY IMPACT CABINET AND FOCUS AREA PANELS, REPRESENTING VOLUNTEER COMMUNITY MEMBERS FROM VARIOUS SECTORS. THESE GROUPS ENSURE THAT UNITED WAY DONOR DOLLARS ARE BEING USED IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE TO MEET THE NEEDS OF OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY. VOLUNTEERS DETERMINE PROGRAM FUNDING LEVELS BASED ON THE PROGRAM'S ABILITY TO ADDRESS A PRIORITY NEED IN THE BERKS COUNTY COMMUNITY, THE PROGRAM'S LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE IN MEETING THAT NEED, AND THE FINANCIAL NEED OF THE PROGRAM. ON A YEARLY BASIS, ALL FUNDED PROGRAMS ARE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION THAT DETAILS HOW UNITED WAY DOLLARS ARE SPENT TO SUPPORT PROGRAMMING, AND THE OUTCOMES ACHIEVED BY CLIENTS PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM. THESE OUTCOMES PLAY A CRUCIAL ROLE IN DETERMINING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF UNITED WAY FUNDED PROGRAMS. KEY RESULTS WITHIN OUR FOCUS AREAS DURING 2016 INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:EDUCATIONUNITED WAY BELIEVES THAT EVERYONE CAN PLAY A ROLE IN ENSURING THAT CHILDREN GROW UP TO BE PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS AND MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY. THIS BEGINS WITH A GOOD EDUCATION THAT IS THE FOUNDATION FOR A CHILD'S SUCCESS IN WORK AND LIFE, ALONG WITH PROVIDING SUPPORTIVE PROGRAMMING THAT HELPS YOUTH DEVELOP NECESSARY SKILLS FOR THEIR FUTURES. TO MEET THIS GOAL, KEY ISSUES ADDRESSED BY UNITED WAY AND ITS SUPPORTED PROGRAMS IN THIS FOCUS AREA INCLUDE EARLY CARE AND SCHOOL READINESS, SCHOOL SUCCESS, AND POSITIVE YOUTH DEVELOPMENT, SINCE THESE ISSUES ARE ALL INTERTWINED IN HELPING CHILDREN REACH THEIR POTENTIAL. THROUGH UNITED WAY FUNDED CHILD CARE SERVICES, OVER 900 CHILDREN RECEIVED HIGH QUALITY CHILD CARE IN 2016, WITH SEVERAL PROGRAMS HIGHLY DESIGNATED ON THE STATE'S KEYSTONE STARS QUALITY CHILD CARE RATING SYSTEM. IN ADDITION, MANY OF THESE CHILDREN RECEIVED CARE DURING NON-TRADITIONAL HOURS THROUGH THE YMCA OR OPPORTUNITY HOUSE SO THEIR PARENTS COULD WORK OR ATTEND SCHOOL. UNITED WAY DOLLARS HELP TO SUPPLEMENT FUNDING FOR THESE PROGRAMS, MANY OF WHOM PRIMARILY SERVE LOW INCOME FAMILIES RECEIVING STATE SUBSIDY DOLLARS FOR THEIR CHILD'S CARE. OUR DOLLARS ALSO HELP TO PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL CHILD CARE FUNDING FOR AN ADDITIONAL 139 CHILDREN WHOSE INCOME THRESHOLDS JUST MISS QUALIFICATIONS FOR FEDERAL FUNDING, OR ARE ON THE WAITING LIST TO RECEIVE SUBSIDIZED FUNDING. THESE FAMILIES REPORT THAT THEY WOULD OTHERWISE NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD CHILD CARE WITHOUT THIS ASSISTANCE, AND WOULD BE FORCED TO LEAVE EMPLOYMENT. IN ADDITION TO HELPING WITH CHILD CARE, UNITED WAY FUNDED PROGRAMS ALSO HELP PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS LEARN HOW TO BE THEIR CHILD'S FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT TEACHER. PROGRAMS SUCH AS BABY UNIVERSITY AND OPENING DOORS GIVE PARENTS OPPORTUNITIES TO HAVE POSITIVE, FUN, AND EDUCATIONALLY ORIENTED INTERACTIONS WITH THEIR YOUTH AND LEARN WAYS TO IMPLEMENT THESE TYPES OF ENRICHING EXPERIENCES AT HOME. THE OPENING DOORS PROGRAM OPERATED BY PARTNER AGENCY CENTRO HISPANO DANIEL TORRES, INC. HELPED 119 LATINO FAMILIES GAIN SKILLS THAT WILL ASSIST IN BUILDING THEIR CHILDREN'S LITERACY DEVELOPMENT. 90% OF PARTICIPATING FAMILIES IN THE UNITED WAY SUPPORTED BABY UNIVERSITY PROGRAM REPORTED THAT THEY LEARNED MORE ABOUT APPROPRIATE CHILD DEVELOPMENT TO HELP THEIR CHILDREN BECOME BETTER PREPARED FOR KINDERGARTEN. UNITED WAY'S SUPPORT OF OUT-OF-SCHOOL EDUCATIONAL, RECREATIONAL, AND MENTORING PROGRAMS HELPS YOUTH DEVELOP AGE APPROPRIATE LIFE SKILLS WHILE HAVING A SAFE PLACE TO SPEND TIME WITH PEERS AND POSITIVE ADULT ROLE MODELS. THESE PROGRAMS HELP YOUTH LEARN THE VALUE OF COMMUNITY SERVICE AND RESPONSIBILITY WHILE DEVELOPING SOCIAL SKILLS, SETTING PERSONAL GOALS, AND FINDING WAYS TO ACHIEVE THEM. IN 2016, ALMOST 18,100 YOUTH PARTICIPATED IN QUALITY OUT-OF-SCHOOL PROGRAMS THROUGH OLIVET BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB OF READING AND BERKS COUNTY, HAWK MOUNTAIN COUNCIL: BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA, AND GIRL SCOUTS OF EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA. ALMOST 65% OF THESE YOUTH ARE FROM THE CITY OF READING, AND ARE DESIGNATED AT-RISK DUE TO LIVING IN POVERTY. AN ADDITIONAL 244 AT-RISK YOUTH (UP 6% FROM LAST YEAR) PARTICIPATED IN THE BIG BROTHERS/BIG SISTERS MENTORING PROGRAM WHERE 72% OF PARTICIPANTS REPORTED GOOD OR IMPROVED GRADES. UNITED WAY FUNDING ALSO GOES TO SUPPORT THE CHILDREN'S HOME DAY ACADEMY, DESIGNED FOR YOUTH REQUIRING AN ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION ENVIRONMENT DUE TO SEVERE EMOTIONAL OR BEHAVIORAL ISSUES. THROUGH THE PROGRAM 49 YOUTH EXPERIENCED SUCCESS DURING 2016 WITH 92% OF STUDENTS SHOWING IMPROVEMENT TOWARD THEIR BEHAVIORAL GOALS TO HELP THEM MOVE FORWARD ON THE PATH OF RETURNING TO THEIR HOME SCHOOLS. INCOMEUNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY IS COMMITTED TO EFFORTS THAT HELP INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES ACCESS STABLE HOUSING, GAIN JOB SKILLS AND BUILD FINANCIAL LITERACY SO THEY HAVE INCREASED OPPORTUNITIES TO ACHIEVE LONG-TERM FINANCIAL STABILITY. WE WORK WITH SEVERAL AGENCY PARTNERS TO DO THIS WORK. FOR CHALLENGED POPULATIONS, INCLUDING THOSE IN POVERTY, RECOVERING FROM SUBSTANCE ABUSE, OR SUFFERING FROM VARIOUS DISABILITIES, MAINTAINING STABLE HOUSING CAN BE A DIFFICULT TASK. UNITED WAY SUPPORTED PROGRAMS THROUGH THE YMCA AND SALVATION ARMY MADE A DIFFERENCE FOR 372 INDIVIDUALS IN 2016, INCLUDING FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN, TO HELP THEM ACCESS SAFE SUPPORTIVE HOUSING. THESE PROGRAMS ALSO PROVIDE EXTRA ASSISTANCE FOR THESE INDIVIDUALS IN THE FORM OF LIFE SKILLS EDUCATION, HOME VISITS, CAREER SERVICES AND ACCESS TO BENEFITS TO HELP THEM REMAIN ON THE PATH OF SELF-SUFFICIENCY SO STABLE HOUSING IS MAINTAINED. WHILE PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM AT THE YMCA, 54% OF CLIENTS RECEIVED HELP TO OBTAIN EMPLOYMENT TO HELP THEM BECOME MORE FINANCIALLY STABLE. IN 2016, UNITED WAY FUNDED PROGRAMS THROUGH THE LITERACY COUNCIL AND READING AREA COMMUNITY COLLEGE HELPED OVER 950 BERKS COUNTY RESIDENTS READ BETTER AND IMPROVE FUNCTIONAL SKILLS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE TO FURTHER THEIR OPPORTUNITIES FOR GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT.

AN ADDITIONAL 107 PEOPLE WITH PHYSICAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES RECEIVED COMPREHENSIVE EMPLOYMENT SERVICES (INCLUDING RESUME WRITING ASSISTANCE, MOCK INTERVIEWS, JOB SEARCHING SERVICES AND ON THE JOB SUPPORT) THROUGH THRESHOLD REHABILITATION SERVICES TO HELP THEM OBTAIN AND MAINTAIN A SELF-SUSTAINING JOB, AND 28 OF THESE CLIENTS OBTAINED COMPETITIVE EMPLOYMENT IN THE COMMUNITY. FUNDED AGENCY FRIEND, INC. COMMUNITY SERVICES OPERATED A FINANCIAL LITERACY PROGRAM IN 2016, WHICH HELPED CLIENTS LEARN MORE ABOUT BUDGETING, SAVINGS, AND CREDIT.

| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 | EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROCEDURES: THE CHAIRPERSON OF THE BOARD LEADS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN THE EVALUATION OF THE PRESIDENT'S PERFORMANCE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. THE PRESIDENT PRESENTS TO THE CHAIRPERSON INFORMATION ON THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS PROGRESS TOWARD ACHIEVING THE GOALS OUTLINED IN THE STRATEGIC PLAN, THE FULFILLMENT OF HIS/HER DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES AS OUTLINED IN THE POSITION DESCRIPTION, AND THE MANNER IN WHICH THE CHALLENGES OF THE ORGANIZATION HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED AND THE OPPORTUNITIES TAKEN. THE PRESIDENT ALSO DEFINES AND DISCUSSES CURRENT AND FUTURE ORGANIZATIONAL CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES. THIS INFORMATION IS SHARED WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. IN ADDITION TO THE ANNUAL REVIEW, A PRESIDENT'S EVALUATION SURVEY IS CONDUCTED SEMI-ANNUALLY WITH FULL BOARD PARTICIPATION, THE RESULTS OF WHICH ARE COMPILED AND ANALYZED BY A THIRD-PARTY PROVIDER HAVING NO VESTED INTEREST IN THE OUTCOME OF THIS PROCESS. A FORMAL REPORT IS PRESENTED BY THE PROVIDER FIRST TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR INITIAL DISCUSSION, THEN TO THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS AS PART OF AN EXECUTIVE SESSION. FOLLOWING THIS SESSION, THE CHAIRPERSON MEETS WITH THE PRESIDENT AND SHARES THE RESULTS OF THE GROUP EVALUATION AS WELL AS ANY GOALS OR SUGGESTIONS THE BOARD HAS RELATIVE TO THE INFORMATION PRESENTED AND THE FUTURE DIRECTION OF THE ORGANIZATION. THE CHAIRPERSON OF THE BOARD COMMUNICATES THE RESULTS OF THE ASSESSMENT VERBALLY TO THE PRESIDENT AND THE INFORMATION IS CAPTURED THROUGH THE MINUTES OF THE EXECUTIVE SESSIONS FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THE RESULTS OF THE ASSESSMENT ARE INCLUDED IN THE PRESIDENT'S PERSONNEL FILE. THE LEVEL AND FORM OF COMPENSATION IS DETERMINED FOLLOWING A REVIEW OF LOCAL COMPENSATION LEVELS OF CEO'S OF ORGANIZATIONS OF SIMILAR SIZE AND SCOPE, AS WELL AS THE COMPENSATION LEVELS OF CEO'S OF UNITED WAY ORGANIZATIONS OF SIMILAR SIZE AND SCOPE. WHILE UNITED WAY FOCUSES ON OTHER UNITED WAYS AND NONPROFITS TO BENCHMARK COMPENSATION, THE ORGANIZATION UNDERSTANDS THAT THE MARKET FOR EXECUTIVE TALENT MAY BE BROADER THAN THE GROUP OF CHARITIES. MARKET INFORMATION FROM ADDITIONAL MARKET SEGMENTS AND PUBLISHED NOT-FOR-PROFIT COMPENSATION SURVEYS, MAY BE USED AS A SUPPLEMENT. THE PRESIDENT'S ANNUAL COMPENSATION IS COMMUNICATED BOTH VERBALLY AND IN WRITING TO THE PRESIDENT AND IS INCLUDED IN HIS/HER PERSONNEL FILE. KEY EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION PROCEDURES: COMPENSATION PROCEDURES FOR KEY EMPLOYEES OF UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY FOLLOW THE ORGANIZATION'S SALARY AND ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM AND THE PERSONNEL POLICIES AS PROVIDED TO ALL STAFF. THE COMPETITIVENESS OF THE SALARY STRUCTURE AT UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY WILL BE ASSESSED PERIODICALLY, AS DETERMINED BY THE PRESIDENT BUT NOT MORE THAN EVERY THREE YEARS, BASED ON SURVEYS OF SALARIES PAID BY OTHER EMPLOYERS FOR SIMILAR WORK. AN OUTSIDE HUMAN RESOURCES FIRM NORMALLY DOES THE ASSESSMENT. IF THERE IS EVIDENCE OF A CHANGE IN GENERAL SALARY LEVELS, THE SALARY RANGES ARE ADJUSTED ACCORDING TO THE PROGRAM'S OBJECTIVES, WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE (SEE BELOW). THESE ADJUSTMENTS DO NOT CHANGE THE GRADES TO WHICH POSITIONS ARE ASSIGNED AND DO NOT RESULT IN AUTOMATIC CHANGES IN INDIVIDUAL SALARIES. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, SITTING AS THE PERSONNEL COMMITTEE, SHALL REVIEW AND APPROVE THE SALARY STRUCTURE. THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL NORMALLY FOLLOWS THE ASSESSMENT DONE BY AN OUTSIDE HUMAN RESOURCES FIRM TO DETERMINE WHETHER CHANGES HAVE OCCURRED IN THE GENERAL SALARY LEVELS. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WILL DETERMINE IF A REPORT ON THE ORGANIZATION'S COMPENSATION PLAN/SALARY STRUCTURE SHALL BE MADE TO THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS. UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY'S POLICY IS THAT SALARY INCREASES ARE BASED ON MERIT AND SHOULD REFLECT AN EMPLOYEE'S CONTRIBUTION TO THE ORGANIZATION IN RELATION TO THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF HIS OR HER POSITION. SALARY INCREASES MAY BE LIMITED BY THE AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS. THE SALARY ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM THEREFORE HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO PROVIDE THE BEST PERFORMERS WITH HIGHER PERCENTAGES OF MERIT INCREASES. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SPECIAL TYPES OF SALARY ADJUSTMENTS, MERIT INCREASES ARE THE ONLY TYPE OF SALARY INCREASES NORMALLY GRANTED. |
