Operating Support

Goal 1: Retire $10,500 of loans used to purchase the KK Berge building in each of the next two years to ensure the long-term sustainability of the organization. The goal also includes doing this while maintaining program integrity. Goal 2: Increase participation in kid’s classes and camps by a minimum of 10% by offering more scholarships to those who couldn’t otherwise afford to attend or for multiple participants in one family. The goal would be to do this in the first year and maintain or increase that number in the second year. The availability of scholarships would be promoted to try to foster additional participation. Goal 3: Increase the number of adult art classes offered from four to seven per year over the next two years. Goal 1: Measurement is a dollar figure, so will compare what was paid versus what was planned. Goal 2: Measurement is a percentage, so the results would be evaluated based on attendance for the first year of the grant versus attendance in the base year of 2015. Periodically throughout the year, participants and parents will be contacted to determine their satisfaction with the kids classes and camps attended and make adjustments accordingly, based on those responses. Goal 3: Measurement would be based on the increase in classes offered, so would be easy to monitor progress and success for this goal.
