We are pleased to report on the activities of Executive Service Corps of Cincinnati for 2010. The social impact of our organization reaches across all sectors of the local nonprofit community. We are a catalyst for empowering nonprofits to make organizational and systemic changes for greater sustainability. Our mission of providing high quality consulting at an affordable cost continues from the foundation upon which we’ve built our organization since 1995. Without the experience, intellectual capital and commitment of our volunteer work force and the community support of our funders we could not continue to provide the valuable services we do.

We are proud of our achievements in 2010 and are embarking on strategies that will allow us to be stronger in 2011 and beyond. In providing 12,500 volunteer hours to the community last year we contributed services valued in the marketplace at $1.25 million. We served 193 nonprofit agencies during the year providing leadership training, coaching and consulting services. We are continuing to provide leadership training for nonprofit executives through our institutes. Collectively since 2007 we have trained 92 community leaders.

On a cash basis we reported revenue of $329,000 with net income of $71,000 for 2010. Based on our system of earning revenue from projects, funding is “reserved” until client projects are started with the remaining 50% of the funding earned when projects are completed. This is our assurance to our clients and funders that we are being diligent about their investment, and that ESCC is able to help more nonprofits by lowering the cost barrier for them to benefit from our services.

Our 2010 accomplishments allow us to move into 2011 and beyond with greater confidence in achieving our goals:

•Expansionanddiversificationofourboardledtotheadditionoffouroutstandingbusiness and community leaders.

•Additionoftwonewpartnerships.WejoinedinthecreationofFlywheel--anewventurededicatedto developingsocialenterpriseforlocalnonprofits.Andweenteredintoasharedofficespacecollaboration with CMC Properties to create the Greenhouse concept for nonprofits.

•Adoptionofcommunityindicatorstomeasureimpactallowedustoalignourfocusaroundeducation, health and income to emulate United Way of Greater Cincinnati’s Bold Goals which help nonprofits become more sustainable.

We see many exciting opportunities ahead, in addition to challenges. We will continue to broaden the scope of our services and clients, as well as increase the number of strategic partnerships. One of our challenges isourowncapacity.Asweincreaseboththenumberandcomplexityofprojectsweattract,theneedforrecruitingmoreprofessional-levelvolunteersbecomescritical.Wemustbestrategicindeterminingourfuturedirection.

ESCC is privileged to have a wide array of volunteer consultants from many sectors of the business and nonprofit communities. Our volunteers serve our organization and our nonprofit community in many valuable ways – from coaching to consulting to training to serving on our board and serving as a valuable part of our small staff. They join ESCC for many reasons – from a desire to give back to the community, to wanting to learn new skills, to keeping current skills fresh, to making new friends. We are very grateful for our wonderful volunteers. Without them this organization could not exist. This year we are proud to report they we have increasedby48thenumber of new members recruited during the year for a total of 100+ volunteers by the end of the year.

The10-year-oldCenterforHolocaust&HumanityEducationwasfoundedbytheHolocaustsurvivorswhomade their life in the Greater Cincinnati community and has receivedgeneroussupportfromTheCarolAnnandRalphV.Haile,Jr./U.S.BankFoundation.ThefoundationsupportedCHHEbysubsidizingtheservicesofESCC.“Theysupportourtwo-foldmission,”SarahWeiss,ExecutiveDirectorofthenonprofitcommented--“topreservethestoriesandteachthe history, but of equal importance to do something with the history.OurfocusisobviouslyonHolocausteducationbutalsoweemphasizethelessonsoftheHolocaustandhowyouapplythese lessons today and in the future.” AftermovingtoitscurrentlocationinOctober2009,Weisssaid they felt it was the right time to take another look at its strategic plan. “We’ve done some incredible things in that time period amidst all the changes but now we’re stable and have a variety of educational venues that are successful. Howdowesustainthat?Howdowebuildourreputationinthecommunity?AndnotjustintheJewishcommunitybutinthelargercommunity.Howdoweinsureorassureoursustainability. So those were the two things we were looking at.”

TheHaileFoundationfundedastrategicplanningprojectwith Executive Service Corps of Cincinnati to lend assistance with updating the Center’s strategic plan. Two ESCC volunteer consultants – Kris Olsen and Craig Kowalski – worked on the strategic planning project for six months.

Ratherthanupdatingtheircurrentplan,Weisssaidtheystarted with a clean slate. They looked at broadening their outreachefforts,aswellastheirreputation.Andtheyalso looked at a variety of fundraising venues to find new streams of revenue. “We had to do that in such a way that our new plans were manageable in terms of time and human resources,” Weiss added. “We revised our mission, added core values and a vision statement and that dictated the rest of the plan. I think some of the tools that ESCC brought to the table andbroughttotheprocesswereextremelyhelpful--thingsthat we probably would not have had access to otherwise.

“Oneofmy10-yeargoalsistohavetheHolocaustMuseum be top of mind when someone asks: what’s great about Cincinnati?”

Weiss explained that the Nazis stamped their symbol on this Arc curtain after they destroyed a synagogue in a small town in Romania in which the Arc curtain sat. They had planned to exhibit it in the “museum of extinct people.” Instead, Weiss said, it is displayed in a museum dedicated to education and tolerance.

In these pre-war photographs, all of these individuals have connections to the Cincinnati community. Most of these individuals did not survive but maybe their family members did. When you look at it you realize that any of these photos could be found in our grandparents’ albums. We try to humanize this experience and we feel that that’s an effective way of teaching about this tragedy.

This uniform represents the rescuers – the resistance. It was worn by an 11-year- old boy who helped save Jews and now lives in Indiana. We hope we can all be rescuers in our own way. If we are ever put in a situation where we have to help somebody hopefully it’s not hiding someone in our attic with the fear of death but it might be speaking up, sacrificing your time to do something for someone else.

NewApproachtoBreakingGenerationalPovertyTaken By The Women’s Connection

Fourteenyearsago,MaryJoGasdorf,SCfoundedTheWomen’sConnectioninPriceHilltohelpwomen and girls in the neighborhood where she grewup.Atthetime38percentofthefamilieswereheadedbyasinglewomanandone-thirdofthepopulation was under the age of 17. Both poverty and crime were growing issues in the neighborhood. TherewasnoresourcecenterinPriceHillforwomen. When The Women’s Connection opened, suddenly there was a listening ear, a supportive environment, and unconditional support.

“For14yearswehaverungreatprogramsandwe’ve always had great support from our funders. However,thisyearourfundersbecamemoreinsistent on strong measurable outcomes and we needed an objective person to help us evaluate our programs and assure that they would be attractive tofunders,”ExecutiveDirectorGasdorfsaid.Sheapproached Executive Service Corps of Cincinnati for assistance because she had worked with the organization previously. “We were grateful to ESCC because we did not have a budget to do this project andtheyidentifiedafunderforus.”(TheFredLazarus,Jr.Foundationsupportedthemajorityofthis project.) The primary objective of the project was to evaluate the programs offered and develop strong measureable outcomes. “Initially, we thought we would take what we had and make it better,” Sister Gasdorf said. “In the end we completely redesigned our programs.”

“What we found was we were serving a lot of women and girls every year but we couldn’t measure the impact,”saidAimeeShinkle,Development&Marketing Coordinator. “Maybe we would see them a couple of times when they came in but we might not see them again. So, we developed a program that addresses not just their immediate need but their underlying issues and their entire self – their mind, their body, their spirit. That’s how we’re approaching it. We really want to involve the entire family in the process.”

“Asaresultofthenewprogramdesign,we’regoingto be working with fewer women but going further in depth with each woman,” said Linda Keller, DirectorofPrograms.

Accountabilityhasbeenadded,aswell.“Reallyholding the women and the girls we serve accountable for their own progress and their own success in the program itself. We want to make PriceHillabettercommunity.Webelievewecandothis by empowering the women and the girls in our community to be stronger,” Shinkle concluded. “(This project) was such a growing opportunity for our staff to really see what our potential was,” Gasdorf said. “When you’ve done what you do for so long you don’t realize the impact you have. John(Seifert,ESCCconsultant)reallyhelpedus see that.”
