Briefly describe the organization’s mission: The YMCA of Greater St. Louis is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all. The values incorporated into our daily activities, which include caring, honesty, respect, responsibility and faith, remain the basis for what we do. In addition to mental and physical components, our Vision for Youth includes a spiritual component, the goal of which is to increase spiritual awareness in children and teens by encouraging volunteer service as an expression of love toward one another. The Mission for the YMCA of Greater St. Louis has remained consistent since its founding in 1853. The Association has set specific measurable goals to exceed in the following years.

4a (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 25,762,562 including grants of $ 1,305,618 ) (Revenue $ 26,688,672 )
Health Enhancement Programs: The concept of healthy living and general wellness is ingrained in the YMCA's mission of promoting a healthy Spirit, Mind and Body. The YMCA health enhancement programs are medically based and stress the value of illness prevention through healthy exercise and living. In setting membership and program fees, the Association is sensitive to affordable pricing in each given community. Financial assistance is provided on a sliding scale for those who cannot afford the basic fees. For the year 2011, the YMCA provided health enhancement programs to 110,335 people of all ages and physical abilities. The YMCA health enhancement programs teach participants the value of positive, substance abuse-free lifestyles that help to prevent disease and other medical problems. Aquatic programs are a big part of the YMCA's overall strategy to build a healthy Sprit, Mind and Body. Beyond providing swimming and water safety skills, the YMCA promotes good health through increased exercise, team building and self-confidence. Last year, 56,875 participants were enrolled in aquatic related programs. Youths participated in learn-to-swim classes and competitive programs, adults participated in general swim lessons and water fitness, and seniors focused on aquatic exercise programs which included arthritis aquatics classes that help increase flexibility and relieve pain for those unable to partake in other forms of exercise. The YMCA is a cause-driven organization that is for youth development, for healthy living and for social responsibility. A strong community can only be achieved when we invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors. The youth segment is the primary age group most of the YMCA programs are built upon. These programs promote equal participation and grant everyone the opportunity to play. Youth programs emphasize development of skills, health through fitness, safety cooperation, values, self-esteem, and respect for each other. Parents are encouraged to serve as program volunteers in many of the youth programs. Other health enhancement programs include gymnastics, sports leagues and other recreational programs. There were 4,410 youths enrolled in gymnastics programs, 7,223 participants in skilled sports and recreational programs and 7,220 adults in sports leagues in 2011. For the year 2011, the Association granted over $2.4 million in scholarships or financial assistance to members. In total 204,322 clients were served under the health enhancement program umbrella.
4b (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 10,014,949 including grants of $ 147,172 ) (Revenue $ 8,072,974 )
Camps/Retreats Programs: With a commitment to nurturing the potential of children and teens, promoting healthy living, and fostering a sense of social responsibility, Y camps ensure that every individual has access to the essentials needed to learn, grow and thrive. The Y's resident camp is accredited by the American Camping Association. We welcome children of all nationalities and denominations and pride ourselves on the cultural diversity of our campers and counselors. YMCA day camps offer children an opportunity to participate in a variety of traditional and specialty activities during the summer months. In 2011, the YMCA had 24,321 participants enrolled between the ages of 5 - 16 in its day camps at sites throughout the metropolitan St. Louis area. Financial assistance makes day camp accessible to all. Our resident camp at Camp Lakewood served 3,087 youths in 2011. Camp Lakewood provides children with traditional camping activities such as horseback riding, canoeing, fishing, archery and nature studies. The YMCA's camping activities encourage the development of socialization skills and for some children provide their first experience with nature. As part of the YMCA Outdoor Education programs, schools are provided with educational environmental programs through resident camp. In 2011 9,855 students participated in outdoor education programs. Through the Trout Lodge facility in Potosi, Missouri, the YMCA provides Resident Family and Conference Camping programs, which are similar to resident camp activities, to community organizations, social service providers, families and senior adult organizations. There were 27,952 camping registrations for the year 2011. In total, 65,215 clients were served under the camps and retreat programs.
4c (Code:   ) (Expenses $ 7,048,163 including grants of $ 153,763 ) (Revenue $ 7,038,453 )
School Age Child Care Programs: At the Y, we believe the values and skills learned early on are vital building blocks for quality of life and future success. That's why our child care and after school programs are staffed with people who understand the cognitive, physical and social development of children, the human need children have to feel connected and supported in trying new things, and the caring and reinforcement parents and families need to help each other. Most importantly, children learn how to be their best selves. That makes for confident children today and contributing and engaged adults tomorrow. The central focus of the YMCA School Age Child Care program is to offer growth and development, not only to children but also to their parents and families. The Association's school-age childcare program is a comprehensive, licensed program provided at 145 school sites. The locations are the actual schools the children attend during normal school hours. The YMCA also provides care at 7 middle school sites, keeping older kids safe during the dangerous after-school hours. The programs serve elementary school-age children during after school hours and, at many sites, during before school hours. It has enabled many parents, including single and dual-career parents, to continue working knowing their child is safe. In 2011, participation in school aged child care averaged 7,062 children per day.

COMPENSATION DETERMINATION SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 3 The process for determining the compensation of the CEO and President, the Executive Vice President and all Senior Vice Presidents includes a review by an executive compensation committee comprised of board members. The Executive Compensation Committee reports to the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors and is comprised of the current Board Chairman, the past Chairman, and the Chairman Elect. Specifically, this committee annually reviews compensation data compiled by Sullivan Cotter and Associates, Inc. of the Urban YMCAs which are comparable in size to the Association. The last review conducted using Sullivan Cotter's data was in 2011. In addition, every other year, the Executive Compensation Committee reviews an independent assessment by Compensation Matters that compares the Association's compensation practices to those of other St. Louis based charities. The last such review by Compensation Matters was in 2010.

OTHER PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITIES FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D The generosity of others is at the core of the Y's existence as a nonprofit. It is only through the support of our volunteers and public and private donors that we are able to support and give back to the communities we engage. As part of the YMCA mission, we offer many youth and adult programs that focus on leadership, self-improvement and social responsibility. Our literacy programs are a perfect example. The YMCA of Greater St. Louis has developed three literacy programs that cover the full age spectrum, which include Beginning Babies with Books, that instill a love of reading and learning in very young children and their families; the Yread Literacy program which pairs volunteer tutors with students identified as being in need by schools; and the Literacy Council which provides reading tutoring for adults. The Beginning Babies with Books program served 770 new mothers and babies in 2011. In 2011, the YMCA has served 399 children with Yread tutors in weekly sessions held throughout the academic year with no cost to the participant. In 2011, the YMCA Literacy Council provided reading tutoring to 99 adult students. The YMCA also offers learning labs for math and science for youth groups which served 195 young people in 2011. Other youth social responsibility programs include Youth in Government, Teen Leaders, Community Outreach Programs, and our Greater Needs programs. In 2011, these YMCA youth and teens programs served a total of 914 participants through the Youth in Government and Teen Leadership programs, by providing role models to help young people develop self-esteem, positive values, good citizenship, community service and a strong work ethic. Our social responsibility programs provide activities that help foster understanding and socialization. The YMCA Community Outreach programs are provided at sites throughout the greater St. Louis area, making Y programs even more accessible by placing them in the neighborhoods served. Outreach programming provides a positive alternative for at risk youth, including after school and recreational activities provided at schools. The YMCA's Greater Needs programs serve urban youth. Such programs include the boys' choir, which served 60 children in 2011; a performing arts center that offers dance and tumbling programs that served 140 children in 2011; a learning resource center that provides computer training; and the Climbing Above Conflict program, a conflict resolution skills program for urban youths that serves 3rd and 4th graders. There were 378 children enrolled in the Climbing Above Conflict program in 2011. In total, over 1,492 youths participated in social responsibility programs. In 2011, The YMCA of Greater St. Louis provided inclusion programs for children with disabilities in 147 before-and-after school programs located throughout the City of St. Louis and the 5 surrounding Missouri counties, as well as in 5 licensed child care centers and 375 summer camp programs. An integrated fitness program is available for people with development disabilities, as well as an Adult Habilitation Center licensed for 27 adults with developmental disabilities, who need a high level of support during the day to enable their families to maintain their employment status. During this fiscal year, 3,280 people with disabilities received direct services and 6,817 people with disabilities received indirect services at the YMCA. For fiscal year 2011, 10,097 individuals were served through our inclusion programs. The World Service Campaign, in unison with our national association, YUSA, supports international programs that empower people with the knowledge, skills, and support to create a better future for themselves, their families and their community. Through World Services, Y's become stronger, and better equipped to address the critical social issues that prevent people from reaching their full potential. The YMCA of Greater of St. Louis is one of the leading YMCA's in the USA in its international undertaking, contributing $102,000 to our international partners to support youth programs, programs for at risk children and families and educational and training programs. Other programs not mentioned above include older adult programs, preschool child care and family nights and hub activities. The older adult programs are focused on helping our seniors maintain independence through better health and social activities. Last year 5,770 older adults were served through chair aerobics, arthritic exercise, walking clinics, dance and social clubs. Our Family Nights and Hubs activity encouraged over 22,354 participants. The YMCA preschool child care is a full-day or half-day year round program. The curriculum prepares children for school by improving their physical well-being. Parents are involved in family activities and support committees. This year, 801 children were enrolled and financial assistance was provided to those in need. A total of 28,725 participants were served in the Other Programs category.
FORM 990 REVIEW PROCESS FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11A The final presentation of the Association's annual 990 tax return is the result of collaboration among management, our independent public accounting firm and members on the Association's Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for the final review of the return. Upon their final approval, the return is distributed via email to the members of the Board of Directors in advance of filing the return electronically. Once filed, the return is made available to the public on the Association's public website.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST ENFORCEMENT FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C The YMCA of Greater St. Louis has a conflict of interest policy to ensure that board members, officers and employees maintain the highest level of ethical standards when conducting Association affairs. The YMCA of Greater St. Louis promotes a culture of awareness as to business dealings which may be considered a conflict of interest or contrary to applicable state, local or federal laws. This culture permeates all levels of the organization from board members to officers and employees. The employee manual, which is signed by all employees, includes a discussion of the Association's conflict of interest policy and outlines procedures for reporting potential conflicts of interest. Annually, board members, officers and executive management are required to complete a conflict of interest questionnaire, which is submitted to and reviewed by the President, the Chief Operating Officer and the Senior Vice President of Finance. Any material conflicts of interest are discussed with the Audit Committee and the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. In the event of a material conflict of interest, restrictions may be placed on persons to prohibit them from participating in the governing body's deliberations and decisions on certain transactions. For example, in 2008 a board member was reassigned from one committee to another to eliminate a potential conflict related to decisions being made by that committee. In addition, there are instances where significant business transactions with a board member or a board member's company are reviewed and approved by members of a committee of the board.
COMPENSATION DETERMINATION FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINES 15A AND 15B The process for determining the compensation of the CEO and President, the Executive Vice President and all Senior Vice Presidents includes a review by an executive compensation committee comprised of board members. The Executive Compensation Committee reports to the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors and is comprised of the current Board Chairman, the past Chairman, and the Chairman Elect. Specifically, this committee annually reviews compensation data compiled by Sullivan Cotter and Associates, Inc. of the Urban YMCAs which are comparable in size to the Association. The last review conducted using Sullivan Cotter's data was in 2011. In addition, every other year, the Executive Compensation Committee reviews an independent assessment by Compensation Matters that compares the Association's compensation practices to those of other St. Louis based charities. The last such review by Compensation Matters was in 2010.
PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF GOVERNING DOCUMENTS FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19 The annual 990 tax filing is available for public viewing on the Association's public website, YMCASTLOUIS.ORG. Paper copies are also available upon request. A summarized version of our annual audited financial statements is also available on the same website. Our Conflict of Interest Policy is contained in our employee handbook, which all new employees receive. A copy of the same policy is distributed to all new members of the Board of Directors when they begin their new duties. On an annual basis the Board of Directors and all senior management personnel are required to complete a new conflict of interest statement online.
