CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
| By 2013, increased demand for assistance and growing popularity of GHC's Treasure Hunters Thrift Store made maintaining both operations in the original facility an increasing challenge. The store serves as an important revenue stream to fund our financial assistance programs. In late summer of 2013 Board made the decision to move the thrift store to a larger, more visible location. This initially presented logistical and staffing challenges since the Executive Director managed both operations. The benefits of the move have been increased revenue to fund programs and much greater public awareness of GHC programs, and services and needs. Physical separation of the Thrift Store and assistance programs also provided a more pleasant and private facility for those needing assistance. Eventually it will also enable GHC to gain much needed space to improve our food distribution program. In 2015 GHC hired a separate manager for the Thrift Store and full time supervision by a hands on manager continues to increase revenues. The Board has adopted a Management Succession plan and a Strategic Plan will be in place in the next 12 months. |
