FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A READY. SET. READ! OVER THE PAST YEAR, READY.SET.READ! HAS EXPERIENCED GROWTH AND PROGRESS AS UNITED WAY AND THE COMMUNITY FOCUS ON IMPROVING EARLY GRADE READING PROFICIENCY. PARTNERSHIPS WITH SCHOOLS, LOCAL BUSINESSES AND VOLUNTEERS HAVE BEEN STRENGTHENED AS THE INITIATIVE HAS TAKEN ROOT AND ACHIEVED POSITIVE INITIAL RESULTS. THE COLLECTIVE WORK FOCUSES ON FOUR KEY STRATEGIES: IMPLEMENT SCHOOL-READINESS ACTIVITIES FOR PRE-SCHOOL CHILDREN, CONNECT TUTORS WITH EARLY GRADE STUDENTS NEEDING SUPPLEMENTAL INSTRUCTION, ENGAGE PARENTS TO PROMOTE LITERACY AND MOBILIZE THE COMMUNITY AROUND THIS WORK. THIRD GRADE READING PROFICIENCY IS A PRIMARY INDICATOR OF A CHILD'S ACADEMIC AND FUTURE SUCCESS. LOCALLY, MORE THAN A QUARTER OF BERKS COUNTY 3RD GRADERS ARE NOT READING AT A PROFICIENT LEVEL AS MEASURED BY RECENT PSSA'S. CHILDREN WHO DO NOT READ PROFICIENTLY BY THE END OF THIRD GRADE ARE FOUR TIMES MORE LIKELY TO DROP OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL AND 13 TIMES MORE LIKELY TO DROP OUT IF THEY ARE ALSO LIVING IN POVERTY. EFFORTS ARE FOCUSED ON MOBILIZING ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS TO SIGNIFICANTLY AND MEASURABLY MOVE THE NEEDLE ON THE NUMBER OF BERKS COUNTY CHILDREN WHO ARE SUCCESSFUL READERS BY THE END OF THIRD GRADE. THE GOAL IS TO HAVE 90% OF LOCAL 3RD GRADERS REACHING PROFICIENCY IN 10 YEARS. RECENTLY, A BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED TO PROVIDE LEADERSHIP AND GUIDANCE TO THE CONTINUING DEVELOPMENT OF THIS WORK. THE GOVERNANCE GROUP REPRESENTS VARIED COMMUNITY SECTORS AND CONSISTS OF MORE THAN 40 INDIVIDUALS. DEVELOPING A STRATEGIC PLAN IS THE GROUP'S CURRENT CHARGE. STAR READERS, THE VOLUNTEER TUTORING PROGRAM COMPONENT, CONTINUES TO GROW. CURRENTLY, NEARLY 220 TRAINED VOLUNTEERS, INCLUDING CORPORATE EMPLOYEES, COLLEGE STUDENTS, RETIRED EDUCATORS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS, VOLUNTEER AT 21 ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS WITHIN SEVEN SCHOOL DISTRICTS: ANTIETAM, DANIEL BOONE, EXETER, GOVERNOR MIFFLIN, HAMBURG, MUHLENBERG AND READING. THE TUTORS WORK WITH NEARLY 400 FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD GRADERS NEEDING ASSISTANCE TO BECOME PROFICIENT READERS, AS MEASURED BY 3RD GRADE PSSA READING SCORES. ADDITIONAL GROWTH IS ANTICIPATED FOR THE 2014-15 SCHOOL YEAR. SEVERAL COMMUNITY EVENTS WERE ORGANIZED AROUND THIS WORK IN 2013, INCLUDING "READAPALOOZA", WHICH FEATURED A SERIES OF ACTIVITIES DURING A WEEK-LONG COMMUNITY AWARENESS AND ENGAGEMENT EFFORT. VARIED STORY TIMES THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY AND ACTIVITIES IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE BERKS COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY SYSTEM, THE READING FIGHTIN PHILS, BARNES & NOBLE AND OTHERS, WERE FEATURED. ONE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF READY. SET. READ! IS A COMMITMENT TO COLLECT, SHARE AND USE DATA TO GUIDE DEVELOPMENT OF STRATEGIES, MEASURE AND EVALUATE RESULTS AND COMMUNICATE PROGRESS TOWARDS THE LONG TERM GOAL. AS THE PILOT YEAR OF THE STAR READERS TUTORING PROGRAM GOT UNDERWAY, CAPITAL AREA INTERMEDIATE UNIT WAS ENGAGED TO CONDUCT AN INDEPENDENT EVALUATION OF ITS DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION. THE REPORT PROVIDES CONFIRMATION OF THE POTENTIAL FOR THE PROGRAM TO HAVE MEANINGFUL IMPACT ON IMPROVING STRUGGLING READERS' PROFICIENCY AND CONTRIBUTING TO ACHIEVEMENT OF THE READY. SET. READ! 10-YEAR GOAL. EXAMPLES OF KEY FINDINGS INCLUDE: " READING FLUENCY -87% OF THE PARTICIPATING STUDENTS SHOWED IMPROVEMENT IN THEIR ORAL READING FLUENCY. " READING ACCURACY - 68% OF THE PARTICIPATING STUDENTS SHOWED IMPROVEMENT IN THEIR ORAL READING ACCURACY. THE FULL REPORT CAN BE FOUND AT THE WEBSITE, WWW.READYSETREADBERKS.ORG. 2-1-1 INFORMATION AND REFERRAL THE 2-1-1 SERVICE PROVIDES PEOPLE WITH INFORMATION ABOUT ESSENTIAL HUMAN SERVICES, SUCH AS LOCATING CHILD CARE, FINDING QUALITY CARE FOR AGING PARENTS, NEEDING ASSISTANCE TO MEET BASIC NEEDS OR JOB TRAINING PROGRAMS. 2-1-1 CENTERS ARE STAFFED BY TRAINED SPECIALISTS WHO ASSESS THE CALLERS' NEEDS AND REFER THEM TO THE HELP THEY SEEK. IN ADDITION, THE CALL CENTER SPECIALISTS, SEVERAL POSSESSING BILINGUAL SKILLS, FACILITATE CALLS AND QUESTIONS FROM THOSE INTERESTED IN VOLUNTEERING OR DONATING ITEMS, SUCH AS FOOD AND CLOTHING. 2-1-1 SERVES AS A VALUED COMMUNITY RESOURCE AND SERVES AS A VITAL CONNECTION FOR THOSE NEEDING HELP, AS WELL AS FOR THOSE WANTING TO GIVE HELP. ADDITIONALLY, 2-1-1 IS A USEFUL PLANNING TOOL SINCE IT PROVIDES REAL TIME INFORMATION ABOUT THE SCOPE OF ISSUES LOCAL PEOPLE ARE FACING. IN 2013, 2,418 CALLS WERE RECEIVED (A 27% INCREASE OVER 2012), WITH THE MAJORITY FOCUSED ON INQUIRES RELATING TO UTILITIES ASSISTANCE, HOUSING, FOOD, HOMELESSNESS, HEALTH SERVICES, GOVERNMENT AND/OR LEGAL ISSUES AND MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. TOP AGENCY REFERRALS INCLUDED: THE SALVATION ARMY, PA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE, GREATER BERKS FOOD BANK, CATHOLIC CHARITIES, AS WELL AS OTHER LOCAL NONPROFITS AND GOVERNMENT/LEGAL ORGANIZATIONS.

WHERE THE ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT INVOLVES AN EMPLOYEE OF UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY OTHER THAN THE PRESIDENT, THE PRESIDENT SHALL, IN THE FIRST INSTANCE, BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING THE MATTER AND MAY TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION AS NECESSARY TO PROTECT THE INTERESTS OF UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROCEDURES: THE CHAIRPERSON OF THE BOARD LEADS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN THE EVALUATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PRESIDENT ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. THE PRESIDENT PRESENTS TO THE CHAIRPERSON INFORMATION ON THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS PROGRESS TOWARD ACHIEVING THE GOALS OUTLINED IN THE STRATEGIC PLAN, THE FULFILLMENT OF HIS/HER DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES AS OUTLINED IN THE POSITION DESCRIPTION, AND THE MANNER IN WHICH THE CHALLENGES OF THE ORGANIZATION HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED AND THE OPPORTUNITIES TAKEN. THE PRESIDENT ALSO DEFINES AND DISCUSSES CURRENT AND FUTURE ORGANIZATIONAL CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES. THIS INFORMATION IS SHARED WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. A PRESIDENT'S EVALUATION SURVEY IS CONDUCTED WITH THE FULL BOARD, THE RESULTS OF WHICH ARE COMPILED AND ANALYZED BY A THIRD PARTY PROVIDER HAVING NO VESTED INTEREST IN THE OUTCOME OF THIS PROCESS. A FORMAL REPORT IS PRESENTED BY THE PROVIDER FIRST TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR INITIAL DISCUSSION, THEN TO THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS AS PART OF AN EXECUTIVE SESSION. FOLLOWING THIS SESSION, THE CHAIRPERSON MEETS WITH THE PRESIDENT AND SHARES THE RESULTS OF THE BOARD EVALUATION AS WELL AS ANY GOALS OR SUGGESTIONS THE BOARD HAS RELATIVE TO THE INFORMATION PRESENTED AND THE FUTURE DIRECTION OF THE ORGANIZATION. THE CHAIRPERSON OF THE BOARD COMMUNICATES THE RESULTS OF THE ASSESSMENT VERBALLY AND IN WRITING TO THE PRESIDENT. THE RESULTS OF THE ASSESSMENT ARE INCLUDED IN THE PRESIDENT'S PERSONNEL FILE. THE LEVEL AND FORM OF COMPENSATION IS DETERMINED FOLLOWING A REVIEW OF LOCAL COMPENSATION LEVELS OF CEO'S OF ORGANIZATIONS OF SIMILAR SIZE AND SCOPE, AS WELL AS THE COMPENSATION LEVELS OF CEO'S OF UNITED WAY ORGANIZATIONS OF SIMILAR SIZE AND SCOPE. WHILE UNITED WAY FOCUSES ON OTHER UNITED WAYS AND NONPROFITS TO BENCHMARK COMPENSATION, THE ORGANIZATION UNDERSTANDS THAT THE MARKET FOR EXECUTIVE TALENT MAY BE BROADER THAN THE GROUP OF CHARITIES. MARKET INFORMATION FROM ADDITIONAL MARKET SEGMENTS AND PUBLISHED NOT-FOR-PROFIT COMPENSATION SURVEYS, MAY BE USED AS A SUPPLEMENT. THE ANNUAL COMPENSATION OF THE PRESIDENT IS COMMUNICATED BOTH VERBALLY AND IN WRITING TO THE PRESIDENT AND IS INCLUDED IN HIS/HER PERSONNEL FILE. KEY EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION PROCEDURES: COMPENSATION PROCEDURES FOR KEY EMPLOYEES OF UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY FOLLOW THE SALARY AND ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM OF THE ORGANIZATION AND THE PERSONNEL POLICIES AS PROVIDED TO ALL STAFF. THE COMPETITIVENESS OF THE SALARY STRUCTURE AT UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY WILL BE ASSESSED PERIODICALLY, AS DETERMINED BY THE PRESIDENT BUT NOT MORE THAN EVERY THREE YEARS, BASED ON SURVEYS OF SALARIES PAID BY OTHER EMPLOYERS FOR SIMILAR WORK. AN OUTSIDE HUMAN RESOURCES FIRM NORMALLY DOES THE ASSESSMENT. IF THERE IS EVIDENCE OF A CHANGE IN GENERAL SALARY LEVELS, THE SALARY RANGES ARE ADJUSTED ACCORDING TO THE PROGRAM'S OBJECTIVES, WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. THESE ADJUSTMENTS DO NOT CHANGE THE GRADES TO WHICH POSITIONS ARE ASSIGNED AND DO NOT RESULT IN AUTOMATIC CHANGES IN INDIVIDUAL SALARIES. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, SITTING AS THE PERSONNEL COMMITTEE, SHALL REVIEW AND APPROVE THE SALARY STRUCTURE. THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL NORMALLY FOLLOWS THE ASSESSMENT DONE BY AN OUTSIDE HUMAN RESOURCES FIRM TO DETERMINE WHETHER CHANGES HAVE OCCURRED IN THE GENERAL SALARY LEVELS. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WILL DETERMINE IF A REPORT ON THE COMPENSATION PLAN/SALARY STRUCTURE OF THE ORGANIZATION SHALL BE MADE TO THE FULL BOARD OF DIRECTORS. UNITED WAY OF BERKS COUNTY'S POLICY IS THAT SALARY INCREASES ARE BASED ON MERIT AND SHOULD REFLECT AN EMPLOYEE'S CONTRIBUTION TO THE ORGANIZATION IN RELATION TO THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF HIS OR HER POSITION. SALARY INCREASES MAY BE LIMITED BY THE AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS. THE SALARY ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM THEREFORE HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO PROVIDE THE BEST PERFORMERS WITH HIGHER PERCENTAGES OF MERIT INCREASES. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SPECIAL TYPES OF SALARY ADJUSTMENTS, MERIT INCREASES ARE THE ONLY TYPE OF SALARY INCREASES NORMALLY GRANTED.
