CONSENT AGENDA

Information in the Consent Agenda is a way for Goodwill Industries’ Board to manage the number of reports and regular approvals brought before it. Rather than reviewing each regular action item, Board Chair Mark Brasee, or his designee, will ask for a motion to approve the consent agenda. If there is an item that a director would like the Board to discuss further, they may ask for it to be removed from the Consent Agenda. Once any noted items are removed, the remaining agenda items will be voted on and any removed items will be discussed separately.

PRESIDENT’S REPORT TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES

FOR THE MONTHS JANUARY & FEBRUARY 2015 On Tuesday we will welcome three new board members: Lyn Ziegenbein, Executive Director Emerita with the Peter Kiewit Foundation, Erin Limas, CFO of Borsheims Jewelry and Scott Semrad, Principal at Urban Village Development, we’re very happy to have all three join Goodwill’s board. Goodwill’s 2013 strategic plan called for the initiation of four research projects: a community needs assessment, a YouthBuild longitudinal study, a market research project aimed at retail and a long range facility planning study. Two of these projects are nearing completion: the community needs assessment and the YouthBuild longitudinal study, both conducted by a third-party (a UNL professor on sabbatical and the UNO College of Public Affairs and Community Service respectively). Staff will report the results to the appropriate committees of the board in the next two months. We are under contract with an area firm to begin the market research project, scheduled for mid-summer completion. All of this information will be critical as Joe Lang leads the agency through the facility planning study. For a variety of reasons these research projects are extremely valuable to Goodwill as we move toward becoming an even more valuable resource to the communities we serve. Four brand new employment programs started here at Goodwill in the last twelve months: VA laundry, Project Employment, ReStart and GoodHire. Their purposes vary widely, from employment for people with disabilities /veterans to youngsters aging out of foster care system to people leaving correctional institutions to individuals eligible for public assistance. These four are in addition to 15 others under Goodwill’s umbrella that has operated for many years. I bring this to your attention not only to highlight the reach Goodwill has in the community but to point out the behind the scenes work that goes into their initiation. The VA laundry is a Federal, AbilityOne contract that required a tremendous amount of research and negotiation with the VA, SourceAmerica and the local business responsible for the actual operation. Project Employment is funded in part through the State of Nebraska but primarily through privately funded Nebraska Children and Families. Restart and GoodHire are funded by the State of Nebraska through two different departments, the Department of Corrections and HHS respectively. All of the examples above are first vetted internally to make sure they meet the agency’s mission and that we have the resources necessary to support the program once it’s up and running. From there the state funded examples take legislative action, led by Andy Bradley. Prior to the actual start date, every department in the organization is involved, from accounting and human resources, to fund development, quality assurance, information technology and marketing. To steal a famous line by an unknown author….“it takes a village to raise a child”, it really does take the dedication of a very talented group of Goodwill employees to bring a program on-line. I am proud of what they all do for Goodwill and the people we work with.

Page 3: BOARD OF TRUSTEES 12PM - Goodwill Omaha · Emerita with the Peter Kiewit Foundation, Erin Limas, CFO of Borsheims Jewelry and Scott Semrad, Principal at Urban Village Development,

As of the end of February, Goodwill employed a total of 653 people. Of that number, 139 work on contracts at the Veterans Hospital, Offutt AFB, the Denney Federal Building in Lincoln, the Zorinsky building in downtown Omaha and 28 work at other commercial contracts. Retail operations employs 402 people, Employment & Training employs 48 and 36 provide administrative support. To date, our various training programs have worked with 4,199 people and helped find employment for 91 at an average starting wage of $10.72 per hour. YouthBuild North has reached its maximum enrollment of thirty late in the month of January. South has a total enrollment of eleven, not quite at its max of fifteen. Customer Connect began a new cohort of ten early this week. GoodHire is beginning to see an increase in referrals after state employees met with Employment First providers earlier this year. All WIA funded services are meeting required enrollment goals. The federal Workforce Investment Act was reauthorized as the Workforce Investment Opportunity Act by congress late last year. The regulations have yet to be published but despite that, it has caused a flurry of activity. Goodwill staff is intimately involved; it should be a win win situation for this organization. The VA laundry contract is moving along nicely after some significant challenges early on. We have a terrific relationship with the owner of the business responsible for operations; the challenge was with VA administrators. Issues have been resolved to everyone’s satisfaction, now on to a signed contract (soon, I hope). All other AbilityOne contracts are operating as they should, although changes in work specs, wages and renegotiations keep everyone on their toes. With March upon us the commercial grounds crews are gearing up for a busy spring season. Total retail revenue for the month of February was slightly above budget and slightly below budget for the first two months. Significant changes in pricing, customer service and material collection helped with the customer count up to 9,200 for the month. Emphasis was placed on expense maintenance, resulting in a budgeted expense to revenue ratio for the month. The first two months of the year have the organization in a net loss position for operations of $303,249. The majority of that is a required accounting of $245,231 for the agency’s self-insured health insurance. This is not a cash outlay, just recognition of the required reserve. Two final bits of good news: later this month Goodwill will be recognized by the Omaha Chamber with a Business Excellence Award, the second in a three year period. And the biggest news is that we received a notice of closure for the OFCCP complaint that originated nine years ago. Staff will provide an update on this at the board meeting on Tuesday.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES MEETING

JANUARY 20, 2015 PRESENT: Mark Brasee, Mark Stokes, Rob Mitchell, Liz Mazzotta, Dave Anderson, Brian Csipkes, Dick Frandeen, R.J. Neary, Joe Olsen, Daniel Padilla, Carol Russell STAFF: Frank McGree, Andy Bradley, Randy Parks, Pauli Bishop, Linda Kizzier, Todd Milbrandt, Dave Pfeffer GUESTS: Bobbie Jo Howard and Maurisa Machacha Mark Brasee called the meeting to order at 4:06 p.m. and asked Linda Kizzier to introduce the guests. Linda introduces Bobbi Jo Howard and Maurisa Machacha. Bobbi Jo is a Career Specialist in the Partnership WIA Youth Program. She works one on one with the program participants in Douglas and Sarpy counties. She has done a great job with Maurisa. Maurisa Machacha has been in our WIA Youth program for the last two years. She is working on obtaining her GED and was just hired at Dial America yesterday and she works for a temp agency as well. Maurisa was separated from her family at the age of 19. Her family was deported back to Botswana and she was sent to Omaha by herself. She moved into a shelter and was introduced to the WIA Youth Program by General Assistance. She is very grateful to Goodwill and the programs that we offer. Maurisa says she wouldn’t be anywhere close to her education and career goals if it wasn’t for Goodwill and Bobbi Jo. Bobbie Jo has been very helpful to Maurisa with anything that she needs from a referral for a job to pointing her in the right direction if Maurisa needs help with services that we do not provide. Maurisa’s career goals are to become a sound engineer or a flight attendant one day. APPROVAL OF THE CONSENT AGENDA Mark Brasee asked if there were any questions or comments regarding items on the Consent Agenda; there were none. He then asked for a motion to approve the Consent Agenda. Mark Stokes made the motion and R.J. Neary seconded. Motion carried unanimously. INVESTMENT COMMITTEE Dave Anderson gave an update on the January 16th Investment Committee meeting. The current allocation for the endowment fund is 12.31%. We are at 62.65% for equities and 37.35% for fixed. This is outside of the Investment Committees target. Per Board policy, target is 60% equities and 40% fixed. The Committee has recommended that we rebalance so were back within our target range. We will do that by allocating $108K out of our equity portfolio for our endowment funding for 2015 and an additional $45K

out of the Vanguard international funds and put it into the Vanguard inter-term bond index fund. This will put us back in the 60/40 split. Unrealized gain for 2014 was $177K. This was recognized in the financials at the end of the year. Most accounts are performing well, with the exception being our International equities. The International equity is to be expected, given their market. DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE Mark Stokes congratulates Erin Swanson Russell and the rest of the Development department for their phenomenal results. We raised over $5M dollars. Highlights include: Goodwill Society. This was started in April and we received 57 commitments equaling $166 K. Mark’s goal for 2015 is 100 Goodwill Society commitments. The Committee has added new member, Goodwill lifetime member Mike Leighton. Mark Stokes encourages everyone to sign up to host a Board Social. So far, we have one Board Social scheduled and our goal this year is to have eight. Erin will email everyone their 2014 and 2015 engagement trackers. Erin thanks everyone for their continued support for fund and resource development. Erin Swanson Russell reports that for the first time in 30 years, United Way has opened up their grant process. We are putting in an application this week for three different programs for $300K. United Way came to us and asked us to apply. Connie Ryan has offered to open doors for Erin in the community. She has helped Erin establish relationships with Lisa Roskens, Henry Davis and Mike Cassling. We are applying for the Department of Labor grant for YouthBuild. Part of the matching components is that we have $150K in matching funds. Erin is meeting with Scott Heigler next week to talk about initiatives to get the funds raised so we can show that we have some active participation in YouthBuild. NOMINATING COMMITTEE Liz Mazzotta reports that the Nominating Committee has four items that the Board needs to take action on today.The re-electing of our existing Board members whose term expires in 2015, nominating new Board members, nominating new life members and slate of officers. There are two Board members who are coming off the Board, Dan Smith and Mike Geis. Liz thanked them for their service and we will send them a thank you letter as well. Liz states that the class of 2015 was contacted to ask if they would agree to serve an additional three year term. They are: Larry King, Joe Lempka, RJ Neary, Rob Mitchell, Joe Olsen and Carol Russell. Everyone has consented to have their names nominated and have all agreed to continue to serve. The Nominating Committee has nominated Scott Semrad, Principal of Urban Village Development and Lyn Ziegenbein, Executive Director Emerita to the Peter Kiewit Foundation. New Life members status nominated are Tony Payne and Mike Leighton. Slate of officers for 2015-2016: Mark Brasee, Chairman of the Board, Joe Lempka, Vice Chairman, Mark Stokes, Secretary, Rob Mitchell, Treasurer and Liz Mazzotta as Chairman Emeritus.

PRESIDENT’S REPORT Frank McGree thanks Mike Geis and Dan Smith for their service to Goodwill. They have both been on our Board for at least three terms and have offered a wealth of knowledge in helping our organization get to the next level. We are hosting Delegate Assembly in June 2016. It is an International event. Goodwill CEO’s along with Board members and program participants attend this event. We are expecting 400-500 attendees. We are starting to get organized for this event. The first meeting will be around March. We are really looking forward to have the opportunity to host and believe it will be a successful event. Frank asks Randy Parks to give an update on the terms of the 84th & Center Lease. Randy reports that our lease will expire for our 84th & Center store in February. Randy, Ryan Zabrowski and Mark Brasee have been working with the property manager to negotiate the new lease. Right now, we have come to terms with everything. Mark Brasee polished the lease last week and it is now back in the property manager’s hands and hopefully we’ll have a response from them quickly. Randy asks for the Board’s approval of the basic outline so we can get the lease signed and executed. We’ve agreed to a five year lease with two five year extensions. We decided to stay at this location because there is not any available property in this area that fits our needs. The rent will increase, it is $13.24 per square foot for the first three years and it will increase to $13.82 per square foot after that. We were able to get a cap on CAM fees at $434.29 a month. There is a maximum of 3% increase every year for the next five years. We negotiated a replacement of three of the HVAC units on the roof. The ones that they are not replacing we have a cap on maintenance for those until they replace them. Randy feels that this is the best lease that we have negotiated as far as being able to protect us from big expenses down the road. They have also agreed to add a drive-thru lane for us which help with donation drop offs. Mark made the motion to approve the lease and authorize the Executive Committee to approve Frank to sign the lease. Liz Mazzotta made the motion. Dave Anderson seconded. Motion carried unanimously. At 4:40 p.m. the Board met in executive session to discuss the compensation for Executive Staff. A confidential memo is on file in the Chief Financial Officer’s office that outlines authorized salaries. Submitted by, Reviewed by,
