VOLUNTEERS WITHOUT PREVIOUS MILITARY SERVICE ARE WELCOME, AND PLATOONS OFTEN FORM PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER COMMUNITY GROUPS. EACH PLATOON IS VETERAN-LED, SUPPORTED BY A LEADERSHIP TEAM, AND DIRECTED BY A PLATOON LEADER. PLATOON LEADERS COMMIT TO ONE YEAR OF SERVICE, PARTICIPATE IN LEADERSHIP TRAINING THROUGH THE SERVICE LEADERSHIP CORPS, AND HAVE ACCESS TO MENTORING AND OTHER INDIVIDUAL GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH THE MISSION CONTINUES' STAFF AND PARTNERS. 1703733 PROGRAM SUPPORT AND THOUGHT LEADERSHIP - ALL OF THE MISSION CONTINUES' PROGRAMS REQUIRE THREE PRIMARY FUNCTIONS THAT ARE DELIVERED IN A SCALABLE WAY: TECHNOLOGY TOOLS, PROGRAM DESIGN AND TRAINING, AND EXTERNAL AFFAIRS SUPPORT. THIS ALSO INCLUDES TMC RESEARCH INTO IMPACT ON BOTH VETERANS AND COMMUNITIES AROUND OUR EMPOWERED VETERANS INDEX AND OUR COMMUNITY IMPACT FRAMEWORK. 1421138 WOMEN VETERANS LEADERSHIP PROGRAM (WVLP) - THIS PROGRAM CHANGES THE NARRATIVE ON WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A WOMAN VETERAN BY LEVERAGING THEIR LEADERSHIP SKILLS AND AUTHENTIC SELVES TO BECOME CHANGE-MAKERS, ALL WHILE ENHANCING THEIR PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL NETWORKS. BY THE END OF THIS ONE-OF-A-KIND PROGRAM, COHORT MEMBERS WILL HAVE FORMED LASTING CONNECTIONS WITH OTHER WOMEN VETERANS AND WILL HAVE DEVELOPED THE SKILL SET TO LEAN INTO LEADERSHIP IN THEIR COMMUNITIES AND BEYOND. 1264720 SERVICE LEADERSHIP CORPS (SLC) - DEVELOPS VETERANS' LEADERSHIP AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT SKILLS USING ASSET-BASED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND HUMAN-CENTERED DESIGN PRINCIPLES IN ORDER TO PREPARE THEM FOR LEADERSHIP ROLES WITHIN THE MISSION CONTINUES' SERVICE PLATOON PROGRAM. A VIRTUAL LEARNING CURRICULUM COMPLEMENTS IN-PERSON SESSIONS SPANNING THE SIX-MONTH PROGRAM. 901963 MASS DEPLOYMENT PROGRAM- BRINGS VETERANS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY TOGETHER WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND LOCAL VETERANS FOR A WEEK OF IMPACT IN AN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITY. OVER SEVEN FULL DAYS, VETERANS CONNECT DEEPLY TO EACH OTHER AND TO A COMMUNITY THAT IS FACING SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES. THROUGHOUT THE WEEK, THEY GAIN NEW SKILLS IN AN EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT, CONNECTING WITH THEIR FELLOW VETERANS AND WITH THE COMMUNITY IN WHICH THEY SERVE, AND THROUGH THEIR COMMUNITY IMPACT, THEY FIND A RENEWED SENSE OF PURPOSE. FURTHERMORE, THE LARGE INFUSION OF RESOURCES INTO AN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITY SERVES AS A CATALYST FOR CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AND ADVOCACY BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS. MASS DEPLOYMENT PARTICIPANTS (AKA "CREW MEMBERS") RETURN HOME PREPARED AND ENERGIZED TO LEAD MOVEMENTS OF CHANGE IN THEIR OWN LOCAL COMMUNITIES. 584324 LEADING FOR ALL IS THE MISSION CONTINUES' NEWEST LEADERSHIP INITIATIVE THAT PULLS ON VETERANS' ABILITY TO SERVE AS "BRIDGE BUILDERS" WITH OTHERS AND LEAD IN A WAY THAT TRULY BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER. THIS THREE-DAY INTENSIVE BUILDS UPON THE STRENGTHS AND EXPERIENCES VETERANS HAVE LEADING ACROSS LINES OF DIFFERENCE TO CULTIVATE AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE ALL FEEL VALUED AND RESPECTED. VETERAN PARTICIPANTS COME AWAY FROM THE WORKSHOP WITH A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING, SPECIFIC TOOLS, AND A PERSONALIZED PLAN OF ACTION FOR PUTTING WHAT THEY LEARNED INTO PRACTICE. 2751007 8183131 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 135 0 1 78 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 11 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 AL AK AR CA CO CT DC FL GA HI IL KS KY LA ME MD MA MI MN MS NV NH NJ NM NY NC ND OH OK OR PA RI SC TN TX UT VA WV WI WA X X THE ORGANIZATION 3145888805 1141 SOUTH 7TH STREET SAINT LOUIS MO 63104 LEN KORTEKAAS BOARD CHAIR 4.00 X X 0 0 0 ELIZABETH YOUNG-MCNALLY VICE CHAIR/TREASURER/FC CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 NANA ADAE DIRECTOR (RES. 07/22) 2.00 X 0 0 0 SALLY CHAN DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 RAJIV CHANDRASEKARAN DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN CULVER DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 MICHELE FLOURNOY DIRECTOR (RES. 07/22) 2.00 X 0 0 0 CATHERINE GONZALEZ-PACK DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 FREDERICK HUMPHRIES DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 ANTHONY MARTINEZ DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 MARY BETH BRUGGEMAN PRESIDENT 40.00 X X 236037 0 10126 WILLIAM MCRAVEN DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 MEGHAN O'SULLIVAN DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 AUTUMN SMOOT CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER 40.00 X 214315 0 16644 SUSAN THAXTON CHIEF STRATEGY OFFICER 40.00 X 215927 0 25558 JAMES GILLEN CHIEF DEV & MKTG OFFICER 40.00 X 105000 0 7380 LA COSTA MOORE CHIEF PEOPLE OFFICER 40.00 X 210381 0 6553 MATTHEW PURKEY VP, REGIONAL OPERATIONS 40.00 X 113373 0 11160 KEITH THOMAS SENIOR DIRECTOR, COMMUNICATIONS 40.00 X 126229 0 1022 MEREDITH DARCHE VP, DEVELOPMENT & BOARD LIASION 40.00 X 161075 0 7037 JULIAN SERRANO SENIOR DIRECTOR, TECHNOLOGY 40.00 X 131873 0 16507 HEATHER MCCARTY VP, PROGRAMS 40.00 X 142300 0 16696 1656510 0 118683 14 0 1 0 YOUR PART-TIME CONTROLLER LLC 1500 WALNUT STREET SUITE 1200 PHILADELPHIA PA 19102 ACCOUNTING SERVICES 133521 REAMY CONSULTING GROUP 3377 BLAKE ST SUITE 115 DENVER CO 80205 TALENT ACQUISITION & CONSULTING SERVICES 130636 YELLOW LAB CONSULTING LLC 6 FOX RIDGE DRIVE NEW MILFORD CT 06776 IT CONSULTING SERVICES 103145 3 837581 17578156 16288 18415737 165971 165971 550000 550075 -75 -75 -75 MISCELLANEOUS 900099 13758 13758 13758 18595391 0 0 179654 249022 249022 1047921 529279 358550 160092 4097056 2865873 670126 561057 63930 41489 13629 8812 409952 269659 98443 41850 387412 261962 72381 53069 3505 3505 181489 181489 809387 539749 202652 66986 181751 177372 4379 188464 111012 37800 39652 590187 425653 136342 28192 273984 203200 70784 1479092 1326389 118261 34442 553102 495999 44223 12880 9903 9903 72973 50139 22834 PROJECT SUPPLIES 619559 619559 VOLUNTEER & STAFF RECOG 71361 6872 63905 584 11290050 8183131 2099303 1007616 X 261385 54314 5204321 2162792 2355931 3281216 132050 205664 442319 441544 10678 775 2375540 11945548 70861 195740 10410766 17846049 690256 724928 0 133798 690256 858726 X 3615801 10980145 6104709 6007178 9720510 16987323 10410766 17846049 7305341 -38528 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 14025975 7740524 11269044 11049933 18415737 62501213 14025975 7740524 11269044 11049933 18415737 62501213 11250290 51250923 119302 98857 60012 20975 165971 465117 73151 38352 22986 13758 148247 63114577 0.81200 0.81280 X SCHEDULE A, PART II, LINE 10, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: REFUNDS AND OTHER INCOME - 2019 AMOUNT: $ 73,151. 2020 AMOUNT: $ 38,352. 2021 AMOUNT: $ 22,986. 2022 AMOUNT: $ 13,758.
