ADDITIONALLY, WITH MORE THAN 1,500 YOUNG PEOPLE SERVED ANNUALLY IN ONE-TO-ONE MENTORING RELATIONSHIPS, BBBSEMO HAS THE 4TH HIGHEST RETENTION RATE AND IS THE 14TH LARGEST AFFILIATE IN THE BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS OF AMERICA (BBBS) FEDERATION OF 250+ AGENCIES. BEGINNING IN DECEMBER 2019, A NEW STRAIN OF THE CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) SPREAD WORLDWIDE AND CONTINUED SPREADING THROUGHOUT 2020 AND 2021. THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION DECLARED COVID-19 A PANDEMIC RESULTING IN FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND PRIVATE ENTITIES MANDATING VARIOUS RESTRICTIONS, INCLUDING TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS, RESTRICTIONS ON PUBLIC GATHERINGS, STAY-AT-HOME ORDERS AND QUARANTINING OF PEOPLE WHO MAY HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO THE VIRUS.IN MARCH 2020, BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS OF EASTERN MISSOURI (BBBSEMO) RESPONDED QUICKLY, TRANSITIONING ALL STAFF TO WORKING REMOTELY AND CONTINUED PROGRAMMING IN A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT. BBBSEMO COMMITTED TO BUILDING ON OUR LONG HISTORY OF MENTORING AND WRAPAROUND SUPPORT TO HELP OUR YOUTH AND FAMILIES REMAIN STABLE AND CONNECTED TO RESOURCES DURING - AND BEYOND - THE PANDEMIC.IN 2021, THE ABOVE-LISTED RESTRICTIONS CONTINUED TO DIRECTLY IMPACT BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS OF EASTERN MISSOURI (BBBSEMO), ITS CONSTITUENTS, AND ITS SERVICE MODEL. DESPITE THE CHALLENGES IMPOSED BY COVID-19, WE REMAINED COMMITTED TO PROVIDING UNINTERRUPTED SUPPORT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE AND FAMILIES IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THROUGHOUT 2021, WE CONTINUED DEMONSTRATING INCREDIBLE ADAPTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY, INCLUDING:VIRTUAL RECRUITMENT AND MATCHING - IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING ONGOING SUPPORT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE AND FAMILIES, WE TRANSITIONED NEARLY ALL PARTS OF THE VOLUNTEER/FAMILY EXPERIENCE TO VIRTUAL PLATFORMS (ZOOM, TEAMS, FACETIME, ETC.). INITIALLY, THE PANDEMIC REQUIRED US TO PAUSE THE MATCHING PROCESS. HOWEVER, WE SHIFTED THE VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT PROCESS TO VIRTUAL PLATFORMS (E.G., LIVE AND VIRTUAL LUNCH & LEARN EVENTS WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES, PRE-RECORDED VIRTUAL PRESENTATIONS, AND OTHER VOLUNTEER RECRUITMENT ACTIVITIES VIA SOCIAL MEDIA) AND STARTED MAKING NEW MATCHES VIRTUALLY. VIRTUAL ENGAGEMENT HAS BEEN A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO OUR PROGRAM MODEL, WHICH WILL CONTINUE EVEN WHEN WE ARE WORKING BACK AT THE OFFICE. WE ARE CONNECTING FAMILIES WITH ONLINE RESOURCES (I.E., COUNSELING, TUTORING, UTILITY BILL ASSISTANCE, ETC.); KEEPING THEM ENGAGED IN MENTORING; AND, FOR THE FIRST TIME, HELPING VOLUNTEERS AND YOUTH ENROLL IN OUR PROGRAMS VIRTUALLY. WE HAVE HAD GREAT SUCCESS USING VIRTUAL PLATFORMS. HOWEVER, WE ARE PLEASED TO SHARE THAT WE HAVE RESUMED IN-PERSON MATCHING AND MANY OF OUR MATCHES ARE CONSISTENTLY MEETING IN PERSON!CONNECTING FAMILIES WITH RESOURCES/DIRECT AID - IN 2020, WITH SUPPORT FROM FUNDING PARTNERS, WE BEGAN PROVIDING TEMPORARY AID (UTILITY/RENT ASSISTANCE, FOOD, SCHOLARSHIPS, ETC.) AND HELP FAMILIES NAVIGATE DAILY HARDSHIPS AND NEGOTIATE SYSTEMIC ROADBLOCKS (EDUCATION, JUSTICE, HOUSING, ETC.). IN 2021, WE RECEIVED 582 RESOURCE REQUESTS (RENT/UTILITY ASSISTANCE, FOOD, TRANSPORTATION, CLEANING SUPPLIES, EDUCATION/TECHNOLOGY SUPPORTS, TRANSPORTATION, LEGAL SERVICES, ETC.). WE FULFILLED NEARLY 80% OF REQUESTS. WHILE WE ALREADY PROVIDED WRAPAROUND SUPPORT TO YOUTH AND FAMILIES BEFORE THE PANDEMIC, THIS LEVEL OF RESOURCE PROVISION WILL REMAIN A STRATEGIC PRIORITY BEYOND THE PANDEMIC, INCLUDING SOLICITING FUNDS FOR THIS WORK, WHEN POSSIBLE. PARTNERSHIPS - COLLABORATION IS A KEY COMPONENT OF OUR WORK, PARTICULARLY WITH REGARD TO RESOURCE PROVISION. TO FULFILL FAMILIES' REQUESTS, OUR RESOURCE TEAM COLLABORATES WITH OVER 100 COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS AND LOCAL BUSINESSES ACROSS OUR SERVICE REGION TO CONNECT YOUTH AND FAMILIES WITH RESOURCES. PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDE LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS (ST. LOUIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS, UNIVERSITY CITY) AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS (INCLUDING UNITED WAY, EMPLOYMENT CONNECTION, SAFE CONNECTIONS). TO DATE, WE HAVE PREVENTED NEARLY 1,000 PEOPLE FROM BECOMING HOMELESS THROUGH RENTAL AND HOUSING ASSISTANCE, DISTRIBUTED 50+ DESKS TO ENSURE YOUTH COULD COMPLETE THEIR SCHOOLWORK FROM HOME, PROVIDIED OVER 100 ELECTRONIC DEVICES TO ASSIST WITH REMOTE LEARNING, AND PROVIDED OVER 2,000 BOOKS TO STUDENTS TO BUILD THEIR AT-HOME LIBRARIES. 4358374 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 12 0 73 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 22 22 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X X CLAIRE REBECCA JAMES-HATTER 3143615900 501 NORTH GRAND BLVD 100 ST LOUIS MO 63103 CHRIS LEWIS BOARD CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 SHARONICA HARDIN-BARTLEY VICE CHAIR (PROGRAM) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 JOHN O'LEARY VICE CHAIR (MARKETING/COMM) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 KRISTEN L SORTH CHAIR (BOARD GOVERNANCE) 2.00 X X 0 0 0 TONY SPRATTE TREASURER 2.00 1.00 X X 0 0 0 RYAN RIPPEL SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 SARA FOSTER CHAIR EMERITUS 1.00 X X 0 0 0 CHARLOTTE BLANK DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JASON BOCKMAN DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 PHILLIP BOYD DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CASEY CROWELL DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARK CUSUMANO DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 BILL DEWITT III DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JEROME FARQUHARSON DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN F FETCHER DIRECTOR 1.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 PARDEEP GILL DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAN ISOM DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 DARRYL JONES DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 TIMOTHY JORDAN DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 J GREGORY KELLER DIRECTOR 1.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 MICHAEL LEFTON DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARYANN REESE DIRECTOR 1.00 X 0 0 0 CLAIRE REBECCA JAMES-HATTER PRESIDENT & CEO 40.00 1.00 X 205863 0 14775 KRISTEN SLAUGHTER CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER 40.00 X 131812 0 11093 BARBARA JONES VP FINANCE & ADMINISTRATIO 40.00 1.00 X 94288 0 10884 431963 0 36752 4 0 1 0 0 413617 3422503 2058698 285554 5894818 AMACHI MISSOURI INCOME 624100 20400 20400 20400 158204 158204 160454 260082 -99628 -99628 -147113 47485 366454 366454 0 5973794 20400 -147113 205689 81584 81584 468715 120095 177252 171368 2845709 2541897 195728 108084 72082 64798 4850 2434 440747 371626 38721 30400 235315 190503 25611 19201 5190 5190 47342 47342 55600 27800 27800 15487 15487 100563 64036 24421 12106 92576 78884 7996 5696 343356 278556 36687 28113 7784 6902 701 181 45947 37990 931 7026 23704 19504 2214 1986 235837 192331 24028 19478 64809 61128 2104 1577 MENTOR ACTIVITIES 102111 102111 ORGANIZATION DUES 89495 63570 25925 VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES 54336 54336 22758 723 19089 2946 5451047 4358374 654277 438396 1603697 467085 386761 2353952 2071034 1398169 44231 12723 2689000 2689000 8824 7581 3992 7004 13319723 2675756 11026672 10643967 2654913 3224905 138440 467845 20627564 21272231 228093 242576 749 31200 3965000 3965000 2608 0 4196450 4238776 X 14932221 15429247 1498893 1604208 16431114 17033455 20627564 21272231 X 522747 83144 -3550 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 4405802 5574836 4960257 5495453 5894818 26331166 4405802 5574836 4960257 5495453 5894818 26331166 389247 25941919 297345 339067 280915 267080 309774 1494181 73280 73280 27898627 101999 0.92990 0.90840 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 55600 0 0 55600 0 PART II-B, LINE 1: BBBSEMO CONTRACTS FLOTRON MCINTOSH AS GOVERNMENT CONSULTANTS TO HELP IN EDUCATING STATE OFFICIALS ON THE NEED FOR MENTORING AND THE CAPACITY AND SUCCESS OF BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS. 57957 81 2485 55553 58579 2485 3107 57957 62713 3107 7241 58579 57518 1000 7241 3046 62713 48970 6000 2548 57518 0.00150 0.99850 0 0 91000 91000 12477479 1988737 10488742 751244 687019 64225 10643967 PART V, LINE 4: BBBSEMO'S ENDOWMENT CONSISTS OF A DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUND ESTABLISHED TO FUND THE OPERATIONS, CAPITAL AND SCHOLARSHIP ACTIVITIES OF THE ORGANIZATION. 1 RESOURCES FOR FAMILIES 216 81584 PART I, LINE 2: RESOURCE NEEDS AND REQUESTS ARE EVALUATED ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS BY THE ORGANIZATION'S EMPLOYEE WHO WORKS WITH THE FAMILY.
