Girls on the Run strives to recognize our power and responsibility to be intentional in our decision making; to embrace our differences and find strength in our connectedness; to express joy, optimism, and gratitude through our words, thoughts, and actions; to nurture our physical, emotional, and spiritual health; to lead with an open heart ans assume positive intent; and to stand up for ourselves and others. 0 0 188555 276345 In the past year, Girls on the Run of Central Illinois celebrated its 10th anniversary, the 4,000th girl to joyfully complete the program, and embarked upon our biggest season yet this spring, with 700 girls enrolled. In the past year alone, Girls on the Run impacted over 1,100 girls and more than 1,400 volunteers and community participants through our program held at various school sites and 5k events. Our 5k event participation is growing even higher, and we enjoyed our second year at Lincoln Land Community College. This not only provides a great venue for the event, but also created an opportunity for our girls to experience being on a college campus. Importantly, our growing reach and impact has come with many successes and tales of triumph. When surveyed, our coaches reinforce these successes; 99% of coaches strongly agreed or agreed that the girls at their program site were positively impacted by the curriculum and gave specific examples including: increased confidence and self-awareness; teamwork and leadership skills; civic engagement; and improved physical health and conditioning. Yet we often hear that the coaches are just as changed by their experience as the girls they work with. Last year, 95% of volunteers strongly agreed or agreed that their coaching experience was personally rewarding, "Having a young girl tell you how she handled a real life situation using a technique you taught her is impactful. Especially when you see the light on her face as she tells you how confident she feels knowing how to handle situations young girls face today. The energizing feeling is simply unexplainable until you experience it yourself." Another coach ran her first 5k at the culmination of our spring session, and has since completed several half marathons after building up her confidence and strength as a runner! As we move into our next school year, our council has even more encouraging developments on the horizon. Girls on the Run of Central Illinois was recently approved for territorial expansion in Scott County. With a new movement of community support and outreach in these areas there is vast new potential that even more girls will be able to benefit from the curriculum and support of the program in future years. The Girls on the Run logo has become a fixture in many t-shirt drawers and a well-known name to many parents who have stepped up to support their girls and our program this year. We have the encouragement of local sponsors as well as a dedicated, full-time staff hoping to continue this path of successful growth and quality program delivery for another amazing year! 0 0 0 188555 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 5 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 9 9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 IL X Sarah Brust 2177269808 907 Clocktower Drive Springfield IL 62704 Karen Carlson Board Chair 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Tammy Klein Vice Chair 4 0 X X 0 0 0 Jamie Kuhlmann Treasurer 5 0 X X 0 0 0 Jennifer Stice Secretary 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Kristy Allen Board Member 2 0 X 0 0 0 Patty Hale Board Member 2 0 X 0 0 0 Bethany Jaeger Board Member 2 0 X 0 0 0 Valerie Woodrum Board Member 2 0 X 0 0 0 Mary Warren Board Member 2 0 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Sublett Executive Director 40 0 X X 49306 0 0 49306 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 21425 0 0 128895 15584 150320 Program Service Revenue 813410 99884 99884 0 0 Program Revenue - Race 813410 25981 25981 0 0 0 0 0 0 125865 160 160 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 21425 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 276345 126025 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 51001 25501 10200 15300 0 0 0 0 87200 73678 6617 6905 0 0 0 0 6086 4153 967 966 12157 8648 1541 1968 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 782 782 0 0 258 233 11 14 22019 18381 1155 2483 1564 1564 0 0 0 0 0 0 11503 8922 1098 1483 1234 1189 19 26 0 0 0 0 5006 2880 359 1767 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5059 4551 508 0 T-Shirts 8956 8956 0 0 Girls on the Run license renewal 6062 6062 0 0 Contract Services 5337 4217 480 640 Donated Materials & Supplies 4207 2207 0 2000 21595 16631 1391 3573 250026 188555 24346 37125 74108 100942 0 0 0 0 1023 2000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2653 2643 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 77784 105585 413 1461 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4746 5180 5159 6641 X 71625 97259 1000 1685 0 0 72625 98944 77784 105585 26319 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 0 110852 202101 207222 276185 796360 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 110852 202101 207222 276185 796360 0 796360 221 438 195 160 1014 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 797374 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 Credit Cards 1558 Payroll Liabilities 3622 5180 Annual Dinner 21701 0 21701 0 0 0 2996 1081 506 Dueling Pianos 8438 0 8438 0 0 600 1875 1622 34 0 30139 0 30139 0 0 600 4871 2703 540 8714 21425 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The finance committee is responsible for reviewing the Form 990 and provides important feedback in the final preparation of the Form 990 and relays pertinent information back to the full board. The finance committee is charged to look specifically for weak points in the Form 990 prior to filing. Next, the board is presented with the full 990 to identify areas that need extra analysis, such as those related to the organization's mission, significant activities, and relationships among board members and officers. If there is no area of concern, the board votes to approve the 990 and the executive director signs off before transmission to the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c All board members, officers, and employees are required to disclose in writing on a periodic basis any known financial interest that the individual or member of the individual's family has in any business entity that transacts business with the charity. The conflict policy is regularly and consistently monitored to enforce compliance. Some checks and balances in place are: "Board members, officers, and employees are required to disclose in writing within a reasonable time after they experience any situations that pose a conflict of interest." The board of directors regularly reviews the written conflict of interest policy. If a conflict occurs, a course of action is prescribed by the board as described in the policy. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 The finance committee recommends to the board of directors the executive director's compensation. In deciding executive director compensation, comparative data from similar organizations are used to examine the fairness of the proposed compensation package. All members of the finance committee are independent and do not receive any compensation from the organization. The board of directors discusses and votes on the recommendations. Any amendments to the compensation package are included in the written compensation agreement. The executive director then gets a copy of the written compensation agreement. This process was used recently to decide the executive director's raise for the upcoming fiscal year. The executive director and the finance committee discuss other employee wages during the budget planning process every year. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 The organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available upon request.
