  7. How Do We Measure Up? Community Impact: Helping those who expect it the least, and need it the most. 80% graduation rate. 260+ clients served. Many of the graduates pursue professions that greatly benefit society (teaching, social work, etc.) Engaging 300+ volunteers from the local community. Many professionals in the 40-60 year age range crave an opportunity to use their gifts for the greater good.

  8. How Do We Measure Up? Efficiency: *Program Expense Ratio = Program Expenses / Total Expenses *The Pathways to Independence Revenue number is for 2010 *Source: Charity Navigator

  9. How Do We Measure Up? Efficiency: *Pathways Revenue Growth in 2005-2006 is 2 year avg. growth for presentation purposes. Actual 2005-2006 growth was +402% and -63% respectively. *US Tuition Inflation estimate from DOE.

  10. How Do We Measure Up? Financial Strength & Stability:

  11. Ongoing commitments from two large family foundations. • Winning new grant awards. • Continued growth in Fundraising Revenue. How Do We Measure Up? Financial Strength & Stability:

  12. Strong Balance Sheet with 10% of Assets in Cash and virtually no Liabilities. • 2010 Liabilities (accounts payable) as a % of Total Assets < 1%. • Multi-million dollar gift enabled acquisition and development of an apartment complex that now houses 16 clients. How Do We Measure Up? Financial Strength & Stability:

  13. How Do We Measure Up? Active Board Members:

  14. Want to help change someone’s life? DONATE With 38 young women enrolled, we still have 40+ on the waitlist. Our primary constraint is funding. Every dollar matters! VOLUNTEER Donate your skills as a professional. Join 50+ medical professionals, 40+ licensed therapists, 10+ dentists, etc. and forever change a young woman’s life. MENTOR Feel good every week by interacting with a young woman in need of guidance, support, and love. When you give, you receive.

  15. Outlook: Demand vastly exceeds Supply. 38 clients in the program and 40+ on the waitlist and we’ve never advertised. Primary growth constraints are funding & human capital. Hired a grant writer, pursuing government funds, foundation involvement continues to grow. Seeking additional land/building gifts to house more clients. Creating subsidiary management teams to increase capacity. Sensitivity to Economic Downturn. Historically, haven’t seen much effect but it’s different every time. Saw very little impact from last economic slowdown in 2001-2002. Individual Donations & Fundraising proceeds seem most exposed (each represents 20% of 2007 cash contributions). Recent multi-year commitment from new foundation will somewhat mitigate economic sensitivity. Can control expenses by slowing/stopping enrollment of new clients. Rental Expense is 40% of total cash expenses and in 2009-2010 it will fall dramatically as 16 clients move into our new building.

  16. 5111 Dunbar Avenue, Huntington Beach, CA Thanks to the Bickerstaff Family Foundation, 16 of our clients have a new home! 2007 rent expense was 40% of total cash expenses. A common living area increases the sense of community and makes clients more accountable. Clients that regress and drop out tend to first begin isolating themselves from fellow enrollees, mentors, and staff.
