SCOTT COUNTY FAMILY Y (EIN 42-0703278)

Program 1 [2018]
IN 1858, OUR YMCA MISSION WAS FOUNDED ON SERVICE TO OUR COMMUNITY, ESPECIALLY TEACHING CORE VALUES TO CHILDREN. WITH CONTINUED MEMBERSHIP GROWTH, OUTREACH OPPORTUNITIES AND COLLABORATIVE PROGRAMS, OUR Y IS NOW SERVING 2 OUT OF 5 PEOPLE IN OUR SERVICE AREA. FOR THE PAST YEAR, OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM HAS FOCUSED OUR STAFF TO RAISE THE CONSISTENCY OF PROGRAMS. AS THE CENTRAL COMPONENET OF OUR MISSION, WE ARE FULFILLING OUR BRAND PROMISE TO DELIVER THE SAFEST, AND HIGHEST-QUALITY PROGRAMS WE CAN PROVIDE, THEN ENSURING THROUGH GRANT AND DONOR SUPPORT THAT EVERY CHILD, FAMILY, ADULT AND SENIOR WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE. OUR PROGRAM QUALITY INCREASED IN THREE WAYS WHICH HAVE RESULTED IN MORE OF OUR COMMUNITY PARTICIPATING TOGETHER IN THE YMCA MISSION: 1) OUR SWIM LESSONS DELIVERY HAS BECOME MORE CONSISTENT AND UTILIZES NATIONAL CURRICULUM, 2) WE BROUGHT IN A LICENSED TUMBLING PROGRAM FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN, AND 3) WE WORKED WITH OUR LOCAL DHS TEAM TO LICENSE ADDITIONAL SUMMER CAMP LOCATIONS. IN ADDITION, WE MAINTAINED NEAR-CAPACITY IN OUR YMCA EARLY LEARNING CENTERS, PROVIDING CRUCIAL PROGRAMMING FOR CHILDREN IN THEIR FIRST 2,000 DAYS OF LIFE. WE ALSO CONTINUE TO USE OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM TO SERVE MORE CHILDREN, ADULTS, AND FAMILIES IN BOTH PROGRAM PARTICIPATION, CHILD CARE AND FACILITY MEMBERSHIP BY ENSURING AN INTENTIONAL PROCESS THAT ENCOURAGES COMPLETE YMCA PARTICIPATION THROUGH VALUE-BASED, ALL-INCLUSIVE MEMBERSHIP WITH DISCOUNTED PROGRAM RATES. THUS, WE SERVED 16,519 CHILDREN AGES 0-17 AS MEMBERS OF OUR YMCA IN 2018, WITH AN ADDITIONAL 7,765 INVOLVED THROUGH TUMBLING AND SWIM LESSONS, SPORTS, AND CHILD CARE, PLUS ANOTHER 150 IN OUR AT-RISK OUTREACH PROGRAMS AT THE ELEMENTARY, JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL LEVELS. THUS, WE ARE CONNECTING 1 IN EVERY 4 CHILDREN IN OUR ENTIRE COMMUNITY, HELPING TO CONNECT AND ENGAGE ALL CHILDREN, ENCOURAGING THEM TO DEVELOP CONFIDENCE, RESPECT AND APPRECIATE OTHERS, AND WORK TOGETHER FOR SHARED GOALS. WE CONTINUE TO USE OUR THREE, LICENSED EARLY LEARNING CENTERS TO SERVE NEARLY 277 CHILDREN DAILY. FROM A MISSION-CRITICAL STANDPOINT, NEARLY 60% OF THE FAMILIES SERVED IN THESE DAY CARE PROGRAMS RECEIVE ASSISTANCE, BOTH FROM OUR OWN LOCAL FUNDRAISING EFFORTS, AS WELL AS STATE ASSISTANCE. THE SUCCESS OF EARLY LEARNING INITIATIVES CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN OUR BRAND, WHICH IN TURN PROVIDES NEW OPPORTUNITIES TO COLLABORATE AND SERVE POPULATIONS THROUGHOUT OUR REGION. WILL. WE ALSO COLLABORATE WITH OTHER AGENCIES TO PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES TO THESE FAMILIES, INCLUDING FINANCIAL LITERACY, HEALTHY NUTRITION AND BEHAVIOR COUNSELING. WE SERVED 291 YOUTH IN OUR BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS AND 2402 YOUTH IN OUR ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS THROUGH OUT THE SCHOOL YEAR, COLLABORATING WITH THREE SCHOOL DISTRICTS WHILE USING FACILITIES WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OF OUR YMCA BRANCHES. WE WORK WITH OUR COMMUNITY TO CELEBRATE READING IN ALL OF OUR SCHOOL AGE PROGRAMS, MAKING THIS PART OF EVERY PROGRAM CURRICULUM. THESE CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE ALSO BEING SERVED THROUGH MULTIPLE COLLABORATIONS. FROM BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS IN DISTRICTS IN THE EASTERN COUNTY, TO PRESCHOOL EDUCATION PARTNERSHIPS IN THE WESTERN PORTION, AND IN-SCHOOL COLLABORATIONS AND PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT THE CENTRAL CITY. OUR FISCAL DILIGENCE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR MISSION MOMENTUM ARE PUTTING US INTO GREAT POSITION TO CAPITALIZE ON NEW OPPORTUNITES TO SERVE AND CONNECT MORE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. CAMP ABE LINCOLN INCREASED SERVICE BY CONTINUING TO PROVIDE ENRICHMENT EXPERIENCES AND RELIABLE PROGRAMS FOR YOUTH TO PARTICIPATE IN THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR AND SUMMER. OUR SIGNATURE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM BRANCH REACHED CAPACITY OVER SOME WEEKS, WHILE EXPANDING CAPACITY FOR DAY CAMP. WE SERVED 2,595 KIDS IN DAY CAMPS, BOTH AT CAMP ABE LINCOLN AS WELL AS OUR EXPANDED DHS-LICENSED SUMMER YOUTH PROGRAMS. WE ALSO PROVIDED 557 KIDS WITH AN IMMERSIVE RESIDENT CAMP EXPERIENCE, CONNECTING FAMILIES FROM ALL OVER THE MIDWEST. THROUGH DONATIONS AND OTHER FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES, WE ARE ABLE TO CONTINUE OUR MISSION PROMISE BY MAKING CAMP ACCESSIBLE TO ALL. OVER 20% OF PARTICIPANTS AT DAY AND RESIDENT CAMP RECEIVE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. LOCAL SCHOOLS, CHURCHES, AGENCIES AND COMMUNITY GROUPS ALSO ATTEND EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, WHICH CONTINUES ARE DEVELOPMENT OF A COLLABORATIVE NETWORK THAT CONNECTS MORE KIDS AND FAMILIES TO THE PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES AT CAMP ABE LINCOLN. WE ALSO ARE PROUD TO CONTINUE SPECIALTY CAMPS THAT SERVE FAMILIES AFFECTED BY CANCER AND MILITARY FAMILIES WHO ARE AFFECTED BY DEPLOYMENT. IN ADDITION, BECAUSE OF OUR CONNECTIONS THROUGH SWIMMING, WE ARE ABLE TO DO ADDITIONAL AQUATICS PROGRAMMING WHICH INCLUDES AN UPGRADED "SAFETY AROUND WATER" PROGRAM DESIGNED TO LIMIT THE UNFORTUNATELY HIGH INCIDENCE OF DROWNING AMONG TITLE 1, MINORITY POPULATIONS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY. IN OUR SECOND YEAR OFFERING THIS DONOR AND GRANT-FUNDED PROGRAM, WE SERVED OVER 400 CHILDREN WHO HAD NEVER RECEIVED SWIM INSTRUCTION, INCREASING OUR GEOGRAPHICAL REACH FOR THIS PROGRAM BY PROVIDING MORE OPPORTUNITIES THROUGHOUT OUR COUNTY. FINALLY, BECAUSE OF THE STAFF AND FACILITY RESOURCES WE ARE ABLE TO MAINTAIN, WE CONTINUOUSLY LOOK FOR FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO SERVE OUR COMMUNITY NEEDS THROUGH AQUATICS. WE ARE PROUD THAT THE SPECTRUM OF YOUTH DEVELPOMENT PROGRAMS AND SERVICES WE PROVIDE IS GIVING EVERY CHILD - REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY - THE RESOURCES TO LEARN, GROW, THRIVE AND REACH THEIR GOD-GIVEN POTENTIAL.

Program 2 [2018]
HELPING MORE PEOPLE LIVE LONGER, HEALTHIER LIVES CONTINUES TO BE THE PRIMARY ENTRANCE POINT FOR A MAJORITY OF PEOPLE INTO OUR CHARITABLE MISSION. IN 2018, 50,339 PEOPLE WERE MEMBERS OF OUR ASSOCIATION. OVER 20% OF THIS POPULATION RECEIVED FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE THROUGH OUR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM. IN THREE YEARS, THIS RE-VAMPED PROGRAM HAS TRIPLED THE NUMBER OF KIDS, ADULTS AND SENIORS WHO ARE RECEIVING ASSISTANCE. MORE SIGNIFICANT THAN JUST THE 25% COMMUNITY PENETRATION OF OUR MEMBERSHIP BASE CAN BE FOUND IN THE ONGOING CONNECTIONS WE MEASURE. WITH OUR STRATEGIC FOCUS ON ENGAGEMENT, INCLUDING COVERING THE COST OF PERSONAL TRAINING ORIENTATIONS IN OUR "MYFIT" INTRODUCTORY WELLNESS PROGRAM, WE ARE HONORED TO SEE THAT 72% OF MEMBERS ARE RETAINED AFTER 13 MONTHS. OUR RESOURCES AND VOLUNTEER LEADERSHIP CONTINUE TO ENABLE US TO PROVIDE CRITICAL COMMUNITY NEEDS PROGRAMS THAT SERVE PEOPLE AFFLICTED BY CANCER AND PARKINSONS DISEASE. WE COVER 100% OF THE COSTS TO OUR "LIVESTRONG AT THE YMCA" CANCER PROGRAM, AND THE YMCA'S NATIONAL MOVEMENT TO ADDRESS DIABETES PREVENTION IS ALSO PROVIDING FOCUSED AND CUTTING-EDGE SERVICE TO A POPULATION THAT IS GROWING AT AN ALARMING RATE. WE CONNECT THE MOST PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH GROUP EXERCISE PROGRAMS. OUR MEMBERSHIP PRICING PLAN INCLUDES ALL LAND AND WATER EXERCISE PROGRAMS IN AN ALL-INCLUSIVE MODEL. THEREFORE, EVERY WEEK, OVER 260 CLASSES ARE OFFERED WITH MEMBERS ENCOURAGED TO TRY THEM, AND INSTRUCTORS TRAINED TO MAKE EACH CLASS WELCOMING WITH A FOCUS ON CONNECTING MEMBERS IN CLASSES. THROUGHOUT 2018, THESE CLASSES WERE PARTICIPATED IN OVER 287,960 TIMES BY PEOPLE OF ALL BACKGROUNDS. IN TOTAL, OUR YMCA HAD ALMOST 1.75 MILLION COMMUNITY VISITS BY MEMBERS IN A COMMUNITY OF JUST UNDER 165,000 PEOPLE.

Program 3 [2018]
OUR CHARITABLE MISSION CONTINUES TO BE DRIVEN FORWARD BY VOLUNTEERS, DONORS AND COMMUNITY SUPPORT. TOGETHER, OUR COMMUNITY RESOURCES ENSURE THAT NO ONE IS TURNED AWAY DUE TO AN INABILITY TO PAY AS WE MAINTAIN OUR BRAND PROMISE OF SERVICE TO ALL. PROVIDING THE RESOURCES TO MAKE OUR MISSION HAPPEN BEGINS WITH THE 167 POLICY-LEVEL VOLUNTEERS ON OUR CORPORATE AND BRANCH BOARDS WHO PROVIDED 919 HOURS OF PARTICIPATION IN MULTIPLE LEVELS OF ASSOCIATION AND BRANCH OVERSITE. IN ADDTION, 1,500 PROGRAM VOLUNTEERS PROVIDED 6,278 HOURS OF SERVICE, USING OUR YMCA MISSION TO BUILD A STRONGER, HEALTHIER AND MORE CONNECTED COMMUNITY. THE RELEVANCE OUR YMCA MISSION HAS IN THIS COMMUNITY IS REFLECTED BY OUR STRONG AND CONTINUOUS DONOR SUPPORT. WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN CONNECTING TO AN EXPANDING BASE OF SUPPORT AND COMMUNICATING A DEEPENING RETURN ON INVESTMENT. IN 2018, ALMOST 1,961 DONORS TRUSTED OUR Y BY MAKING GIFTS TO SUSTAIN OUR MISSION. OF THESE, 958 WERE MEMBERS OF OUR Y WHO SHOWED A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF PARTICIPATING AT OUR Y AS A MEMBER AND CUSTOMER, BUT ALSO MAKING GIFTS TO DEMONSTRATE THE NEED FOR SUPPORT THAT WILL INCLUDE MORE OF OUR COMMUNITY. LOCAL COMPANIES AND ORGANIZATIONS ALSO REALIZE OUR COLLABORATIVE IMPACT, AS 259 OF THESE GROUPS MADE GIFTS, AS WELL. IN SUM, OUR COMMUNITY DEMONSTRATED ITS TRUST AND SUPPORT BY PROVIDING $1,082,000 IN ANNUAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS AND GRANTS. THIS COMMUNITY SUPPORT HAS ENABLED OUR YMCA TO FURTHER INVEST IN COMMUNITY PROGRAMS. WE HAVE SEEN AN INCREASED AWARENESS OF OUR YOUTH OUTREACH PROGRAMS. WE CURRENTLY EMPLOY TWO, FULL-TIME PROGRAM DIRECTORS TO PROVIDE PROGRAMMING IN CRITICAL GAPS THROUGH COLLABORATION IN AT-RISK COMMUNITIES. "YMCA ACHIEVERS" BEGAN AS A GRANT-FUNDED RE-DIRECTION PROGRAM FOR JUVENILE OFFENDERS TWO YEARS AGO. HOWEVER, BECAUSE OF OUR FISCAL DILIGENCE AND STRONG MEASURABLE OUTCOMES, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EXPAND THE PROGRAM TO SERVE A WIDER ARRAY OF TEENAGERS WHO ARE REFERRED THROUGH MULTIPLE PARTNERS, INCLUDING THE SCHOOLS, JUVENILE JUSTICE CENTERS, CHURCHES AND AGENCIES. THROUGH 2018, WE HAVE WORKED WITH AND MENTORED OVER 200 KINDERGARTEN THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL-AGE STUDENTS WITH SIGNIFICANT RESULTS. FOR JUVENILE OFFENDERS, WE HAVE LOWERED THE LEVELS OF RE-OFFENSE BY 10% TO OUR STATE-WIDE AVERAGE. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE AN 83% SUCCESS RATE FOR STUDENTS 18 YEARS OR OLDER WHO HAVE BEEN RE-ENROLLED IN SCHOOL, OR HAVE GRADUATED. WE ALSO HIRE A FULL-TIME STAFF TO DIRECT OUR "YMCA SOLUTIONS" PROGRAM. SOLUTIONS IS OUR OTHER COMMUNITY-FUNDED PROGRAM, TARGETING ELEMENTARY AGED STUDENTS WITHIN THEIR SCHOOL. OVER 100 STUDENTS AT FIVE LOCATIONS ARE PROVIDED WITH AN ALTERNATIVE TO IN-SCHOOL SUSPENSION. WE SEE GREAT RESULTS IMPROVING GRADES, SUSPENSIONS, DISCIPLINARY ISSUES, AND ATTENDANCE IN OVER 90% PARTICIPANTS. WE HAVE ALSO ADDED COLLABORATIVE SERVICES DESIGNED TOMEET COMMUNITY NEEDS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE WITHOUT THE SKILLS TO HANDLE CHALLENGING PEER PRESSURE SITUATIONS THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER AND SCHOOL YEAR. OUR NEW YMCA LEADERSHIP CAMP SERVED 75 THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER IN AN INTENSIVE, WEEK-LONG PROGRAM TEACHING SOCIAL, INTERPERSONAL AND EVEN JOB SKILLS. NOT ONLY ARE THEY SHOWN AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF POSSIBILITIES, BUT WE CONNECT THEM TO THE PROGRAM STAFF AND LEADERS OF THESE PROGRAMS SO OUR CHILDREN UNDERSTAND THE WHOLE COMMUNITY CARES AND IS ACCESSIBLE AND WILLING TO HELP. OUR YMCA VOLUNTEER LEADERS FEEL IT IS NECESSARY TO PROVIDE YMCA ACHIEVERS AND YMCA SOLUTIONS WITH ZERO COST TO PARTICIPANTS. TOGETHER, OVER $1.59 MILLION IN COMMUNITY SUPPORT WAS DIRECTLY PROVIDED TO THE CHILDREN, ADULTS, SENIORS AND FAMILIES SERVED BY OUR Y.
