Operation S.A.F.E. (Sustainability and Financial Effectiveness) Futures The Allstate Foundation has established a partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of America that is focused on promoting the sustainability and financial effectiveness of Boys & Girls Clubs in Indian Country. Ten Native American organizations* have been selected to participate in this initiative. Each partnering Club will receive a capacity-building stipend in the amount of $30,000 over the 3 year grant period (April 2005 - April 2008) and additional technical assistance from their BGCA Regional Service Center. This opportunity is made possible through the generosity of The Allstate Foundation in support of Boys & Girls Clubs of America.  Upon receipt of the grant funds, each Club will participate in the following activities: Work with their Regional Service Director to advance by one SOE level within 3 of the SOE categories over the three-year grant period.  Develop a Strategic Plan (or review and improve existing plans). Complete a Job Classification & Compensation Program (JCCMP). Serve an additional 100 youth over the three-year grant period. Participate in Project Learn. Participate in professional development trainings and distance learning opportunities. Each site will work with The Allstate Foundation to publicize and market the partnership. Each Native American site will develop a written collaboration partnership plan with a tribal or community-based college or local college/advanced educational institution building education opportunity awareness for Native American youth. In collaboration with Allstate, develop opportunities for local, and/or area, Allstate representatives to become involved in serving or marketing the organization participating in service opportunities such as BGCA’s National Kids Day. Utilize and test the Quest online system. Complete the Workplace of Excellence Survey.
