In the past year alone, Girls on the Run impacted over 1,000 girls and more than 700 volunteers and community participants through our program held at various school sites and 5k events. Due to the increased participation in our 5k events we outgrew our previous event location, but had the exciting opportunity to move to Lincoln Land Community College. This not only provided 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 not come without many successes and tales of triumph. One 5th grade girl, once a chronic sufferer of lung and asthma issues, progressively built up her running to complete her first 5k this spring; she has since finished several more 5k's and her doctor reports strengthening of her lungs and overall health over the course of her training. But our girls will tell you this program isn't just about the running, as another girl so clearly illustrates , "Before I signed up for it, I would write notes saying, 'I'm dumb, stupid, ugly, and everyone hates me.' I don't do that anymore and I think I'm smart, kind, thoughtful, caring, a great singer and great helper." 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 three new counties- Peoria, Tazewell and Brown. 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 158753 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 9 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 8 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 IL X X Evelyn Ivy 2177269808 907 Clocktower Drive Springfield IL 62704 Deb Shultz 5 X X 0 0 0 Lauren Lurkins 2 X X 0 0 0 Jamie Kuhlmann 5 X X 0 0 0 Mary Warren 2 X X 0 0 0 Karen Carlson 2 X 0 0 0 Tammie Klein 2 X 0 0 0 Kristy Allen 2 X 0 0 0 Bethany Jaeger 2 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Sublett 40 X 24740 0 0 24740 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 20045 0 0 101256 9985 121301 Program Service Revenue 813410 64890 64890 0 0 Program Revenue - Race 813410 21030 21030 0 0 0 0 0 0 85920 195 195 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 20045 0 207416 86115 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 48740 24370 9748 14622 0 0 0 0 76472 55588 16317 4567 4283 3227 429 627 15506 11340 2411 1755 6407 5958 118 331 5960 5960 Misc 254 254 0 0 67782 58016 1613 8153 225404 158753 36596 30055 85389 74108 600 1023 5054 2653 91043 77784 180 413 250 4746 430 5159 X 60613 71625 30000 1000 0 0 90613 72625 91043 77784 -17988 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 0 0 110852 202101 207222 520175 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 110852 202101 207222 520175 520175 221 438 195 854 0 0 521029 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Credit Card 587 Payroll Liabilities 4159 4746 Breaking Out of the Box 19985 0 19985 0 0 0 1990 113 1155 Dueling Piano 6830 0 6830 0 0 420 1407 1640 45 0 26815 0 26815 0 0 420 3397 1753 1200 6770 20045 F990_P06_S0B_L11b 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 relay 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 relationship among board members and officers. If there is no area of concern, the board votes to approve the 990 and the treasurer signs off before transmission to the IRS. F990_P06_S0B_L12c 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 a 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 poses 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. F990_P06_S0B_L15 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 organization is 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 raise for the upcoming fiscal.
