THE “BUSTED GUTTER” PROJECT Team Building Greatness Leadership Charlottesville, Class of 2015 THE NEED Building Goodness Foundation (BGF) is a Charlottesville-based nonprofit that connects skilled volunteers from the design and construction industries with vulnerable communities at home and abroad. In partnership with best-practice non-government organizations (NGOs) and domestic nonprofits, they build and renovate critically needed schools, clinics, homes, and centers for ecological and economic development. BGF works in Virginia, Colorado, the Caribbean, Central America, and West Africa. In Central Virginia, BGF organizes skilled volunteers to complete projects that help regional non-profits fix issues with their buildings and facilities. These projects include roofing repairs for the Arc of the Piedmont, building ADA accessible bathrooms for Camp Holiday Trails, improving drainage systems for the Music Resource Center, and many other building and renovation projects. For each of these projects, BGF spends significant time collecting information about the facility needs and organizing volunteer groups, donors, and contractors in order to perform the work. Even with an expanded capacity, BGF cannot meet the needs of all local non-profits due to the scope of work needed. BGF saw a need to collect information about local nonprofits’ facility needs to make it available for volunteer groups, donors, and bidding contractors in the hopes that visibility of the need will expand support for such work, both within BGF and other interested groups. THE PROJECT The “Busted Gutter” Project evolved from a collaboration between the “Building Greatness” team of the Leadership Charlottesville Class of 2015 and BGF. The Project is a database designed to raise visibility of local non-profit facility needs among community funders and construction and service project volunteers. The Center for Nonprofit Excellence (CNE), Charlottesville Area Community Foundation (CACF), the United Way - Thomas Jefferson Area (UW-TJA) and the Chamber of Commerce (CoC) have also supported this collaboration. Nonprofit organizations often have maintenance needs for their buildings and grounds that go unmet due to lack of funding, compromising their ability to fulfill their mission. The goal of the Busted Gutter Project was to collect information about the non-profit facility needs and compile it in one central location. This database will serve as a meeting place, or clearinghouse to match those with needs with volunteer and donor organizations with time, skills or funding to meet those needs. THE PROCESS The team first developed an online survey to collect the required information for population of the database. The survey was advertised to area non-profit organizations through the CNE newsletter, the weekly “ChamberBits” newsletter in January, and was posted on the BGF website. Additionally, group members attended the Chamber’s Nonprofit Roundtable in January and shared information about the project with potential participants. The survey collected information from responding non-profits including contact information, organization history, mission statements, and specific information about operating expenses and facility repair needs. This information was saved to a spreadsheet in a standardized format. To date, responses have been collected from 17 area non-profit organizations, with needs ranging from trail clearing and yard work, to major construction. Survey responses were formatted for ease of viewing and are presented following this report. Team members then conducted site visits with 13 of the respondents to follow up on the surveys and collect further information including pictures of the facilities. Site visits were only conducted for the organizations that owned their own facility and met certain criteria established by BGF for inclusion in their programs. Not only did the site visits provide more detailed information about the each organization’s needs, but these visits helped the team to identify gaps in the data and to modify the survey questions in an effort to more effectively collect the desired information. For example, our team felt that the survey should ask the responders to identify needs that involve skilled and unskilled volunteers in separate questions so that the information would be easier to filter by those looking to fill the

needs. The survey results attached to this report do not include these expanded questions, but all future responders will be asked to provide this valuable information. THE DATA Attached to this report is the information collected. A summary sheet is provided for each organization that completed the survey. Additionally, the site visit notes and pictures are included for those organizations that received a site visit. This information will be provided to BGF in a form that can easily be hosted on their website. We also hope that the CNE, UW-TJA, and CACF will have a link on their website to the survey and database results as well. THE CONCLUSION Now that the data collection is complete and packaged, the team concluded the project by initiating a media announcement to improve public awareness of the information. The announcement will provide information about the “Busted Gutter” project and where to find the information. The on-line survey will continue to be active, and can be completed by any local non-profit wishing to have their needs included in this database. It is our hope that the “Busted Gutter” project will facilitate the fulfillment of all of the facility needs catalogued in the database, that other nonprofits will see the benefit of having their information included in the database, and that the database will continue to evolve into a product that is useful to the community. THE FUTURE Team “Building Greatness” believes that the package described above is just the beginning. Although the tools available for us to complete this task were limited to free resources, we have laid the foundation for a much bigger opportunity. The next step is to build a functioning web-based interface that would better consolidate the information collected by the survey. The tool would organize the information collected by the survey questionnaire in a searchable online database accessible by anyone. Ideally, this tool would require minimum maintenance by BGF. Organizations who wish to have their facility needs represented would be able to update and edit the information about their potential projects and upload pictures. Team “Building Greatness” has been working with BGF to secure funding and find a software engineer to create the database platform. Furthermore, we believe that, once developed, a generic version of this software could be hosted anywhere in the world, giving other communities a simple tool for raising awareness for their local non-profits’ needs.

However, the museum is somuch more, it houses the history of the citizens of Orangeand the state Virginia a long with their part in founding andhistory of America.


We had plans to renovate a building on site for a community space (with agrant) , but have decided that parking is our biggest need, the architecturalplans (pro bono) were to include a parking lot. He estimated about $10,000.We currently only have 3 dedicated parking spots.


We currently have one full time Museum Administrator andseveral part time volunteers, we have one intern from theUniversity of Mary Washington's Historic Preservation orHistory Department, as well as a very active volunteer Boardof Directors. We serve the nation, yes our history is local, butit pertains to the entire country and our founding fathers.Current displays include a 3 part African- American historybeginning with the American Revolution and spanning theyears to the Post Emancipation period.

James Madison Museum Site Visit Date: February 12, 2015

James Madison Museum was established under the James Madison Memorial Foundation, a charitable

and educational corporation. The Mission of the James Madison Museum is to serve the community by

collecting and preserving the artifacts and cultural heritage of 18th, 19th and 20th century rural Virginia;

and promoting an awareness and appreciation of the lives and achievements of James Madison and

others who made a unique contribution to the region. The museum has an active educational/cultural

outreach program and hosts (free) lectures and programs for our local school children.


1. Clear, grade, and asphalt pave an area of the back of the museum for parking in order to

increase accommodations, visibility, and safety.

o Also would recommend adding parking lot lighting to this project for increased safety.

o $10,000 is the estimate for having this outside project completed (w/o removing

retaining wall and adding lot lighting).

o No funds have been secured for this project.

o Need design assistance to optimize the number of parking spaces and to minimize street

entry/exit hazards.

2. Renovate the “Mold Room” to use space for artifacts storage facility.

o Mold abatement is necessary before any renovation should be done.

o Renovation would require installation of a temperature control system to preserve the

valuable artifacts.

o No cost estimate and no funds available since #1 is the first priority.

o Need design assistance to eliminate mold challenges of partial basement structure as

well as to create a temperature-controlled environment (HVAC).

3. Renovate a large storage area into a kitchen area for positive staff and client (catering) impact.

o A kitchen would provide an improved workplace.

o Revenue generator by providing refreshments to customer as well as increasing

museum’s appeal for “paid” private parties and/or fundraising activities.

o Code work required by plumbers and electricians.

o Need design assistance to optimize space usage and to make the space “catering chef”

functional.

4. Renovate Board Room to have positive impact on staff, and on customers by creating possible

office rental, and thereby generating revenues for the museum.

o Replace floor, or repair and carpet.

48

o Code work required by plumbers and electricians to upgrade electrical (fixtures &

outlets) and to re-route several pipes to the proposed kitchen area.

o Plaster work, then painting of the entire area.

5. Large Garage, “drafty” automotive bay area which houses an original log home is a wonderful

addition to the museum because it has an eclectic variety of period antiques is in dire need of

LEAP ASSESSMENT.

o Large bay doors need seals to eliminate wildlife entry

o Large metal windows need update to eliminate a multitude of drafts

o Old hydraulic lift footings need to be removed and cement poured in holes to eliminate

safety hazard for staff as well as customers.

The Museum has limited fundraising. And it received a percentage of its monies from Orange.

However, the Museum has the “potential” to raise funds with the assistance of Montpelier if, and

only if the Museum is willing to relinquish its current name which was required by the organizing

bequeath.

1.) Expand our conference room into the adjoining ‘foyer’ togive us a more usable space, and enable us to hold moreclasses and training sessions on the premises. Theconference room is too small for our needs (14' x 16'), andthe foyer is too large (25' by 13'). A reconfiguration wouldalmost certainly improve energy use as well.2.) Reduce bills and our pressure on the environment bymaking the entire building more energy efficient.

Piedmont CASA Site Visit Date: February 11, 2015 The Piedmont CASA building is a beautiful brick 1920-30’s building. Except for the couple of items the staff is concerned about we found the building in visibly good shape. The Executive Director described two needs that will make working in the space easier and more efficient. Construction/Repair Needs

1. Convert two spaces to facilitate a larger more efficient conference room o Conference room is too small to accommodate Board meetings & workshops o Time to find and travel to other spaces is inefficient and costly o Growing BOD now numbered at 13 are already squeezing into the room o 8 Training sessions per year require enough room to accommodate 25 people

with separate tables, 30 hours several times per year o A large entrance hall/waiting room abuts the conference room.

It hosts office equipment in a small portion of the room, which could be relocated to another space

The remaining space in the entrance hall/waiting room is under used

It is drafty, with high ceilings, under-sealed doorway and old windows o The unknowns are:

If renovation takes place, what are the ADA requirements of an old building

A free standing wall would need to be removed in the entrance hall/waiting room to open up the space

Is the wall between the rooms load bearing, and/or hosting utilities such as air ducts, wires, or water pipes?

1. Energy efficiency would make work more comfortable and reduce the stress on the budget. CASA staff maintains 68 degrees in the daytime and 60 degrees in the night. However the staff is cold. Things that could help:

○ Insulation in the attic spaces above the third floor and in the un-insulated attic spaces on the third floor.

○ Replace old windows and seal newer windows and doors where needed 2. IT closet which didn’t have efficient ventilation drew our attention. It should probably

be checked by an IT expert. ○ It is a tiny closet with a window, (solar heat generated), that only has a small fan

to cool all IT equipment 3. The adjustment of the conference room space and energy efficiency will increase

employee productivity and utility efficiency enormously, saving time and money

ReadyKids Site Visit Date: February 11, 2015

Ready Kids focuses on opening doors to bright futures for kids. They do this to ensure every child is learning ready, relationship ready, life ready and has a future of rich possibilities. This building was originally built in the 1960’s as an office for two doctors. Ready Kids moved into the building in 2010. The needs that the staff would like to see addressed are as follows:

1. The flat, rubber membrane roof leaks with severe rain and snow affecting the entire building. If it is not replaced the building will have to be shut down

2. There are some areas, which need grout between the tiles on the street-side wall of the building. Paint is needed on the metal architectural flashing, which hangs down from the top of the building.

3. There is a wall surrounding the playground that abuts the sidewalk showing signs of

buckling and will need some attention in the near future.

4. A handrail along the lower pathway is rusting out and the staff is contemplating

removing the railing. It is not needed for their program.

5. A brick retaining wall in the parking lot has a large horizontal crack needs attention.

6. Other minor concrete and brick deterioration occurring on site. They will need a new

parking lot within the next 3-5 years.

7. Ready Kids would like a deferred maintenance planning schedule.

The roof is the highest priority.

The Salvation Army’s Center of Hope

Site Visit: February 23, 2015

The Salvation Army of Charlottesville is a branch/arm of the United States’ Salvation Army,

which began in Philadelphia in 1879. William Booth, a Methodist Reform Church minister in

London, England, established the organization in 1865. And London, England is where the

international headquarters remains. Therefore, the organization is an international evangelical

movement that is part of the universal Christian church and its message is based on the Bible. Its

ministry is motivated by the love of God. Its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and

to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.

The Charlottesville Corps of The Salvation Army was established in 1912 as a place where the

needy in the city could go to get a hot meal and free lodging for the night. The Emergency

Shelter, 58-bed shelter available for overnight stay or for stays of several weeks or months at a

time.

The Center of Hope accommodates dislocated/homeless families that are trying to establish a

stabilized environment primarily through securing permanent employment, providing them the

resources needed to be a productive family unit. There are nine one- and two-bedroom

apartments in a two-story building located at 207 Ridge Street. And families may reside for up to

a two-year period in this transitional housing.


1. Renovate completely each of the nine apartments in the Center of Hope Transitional

Housing and have LEAP Assessment done.

o This is a sound structure that would not require a “to the studs/frames”

renovation unless it is done for design efficiency and use optimization.

o Approximately $10,000 per apartment to achieve a complete renovation of the

bathroom, bedroom(s) and kitchen.

o Bathroom; update with tub refinishing/replacement, new lighting fixtures,

replace/refinish sink and vanity, replace flooring, and repair drywall, sand, &

paint.

o Bedroom(s); upgrade lighting and closet/storage area, install ceiling fans,

replace flooring, and repair drywall, sand, & paint.

o Kitchen; reface or replace cabinets, upgrade lighting and appliances, replace

flooring, and repair drywall, sand, & paint.

o Community living room; upgrade lighting, replace flooring, repair drywall, sand

& paint.

o No funds have been secured for this project.

o Need design assistance to optimize apartment space and to bring the units into

the 21st century.

o Would be a major benefit to clients’ morale, psychological and emotional state.

68

2. Replace the original HVAC system that supports six of the apartments in Center of Hope

Transitional Housing.

o One zone of the HVAC system is rigged to operate and none of the apartments’

thermostats are operational.

o Repair or replace attic ventilation fans to work in concert with HVAC system.

o No cost estimate and no funds available since #1 is the first priority.

o This effort would result in a major reduction in the organization’s energy

expense while improving the comfort level of the residents because of various

body temperatures.

3. Renovate clients’ storage area that is used for their personal belongings.

o Upgrade lighting, replace flooring, and repair drywall, sand, & paint.

o Need design assistance to optimize space usage

o Benefit to clients’ morale (psychological displacement).
