ULCC Workforce development programming added an electrical training class for the first time in 2023. We partnered with Gratech to teach and cultivate a learning environment that was equipped for providing real world experience to students that had no experience. ULCC experienced much success as 47 people graduated from the programming and 40 of them were placed in a career with an average hourly wage of $18.00. Our HVAC program experienced similar success. In Spring of 2023, we graduated 17 students. 14 passed their examination to receive their Universal EPA Certification and then placed in employment. We gained over 10 new employer partners through that cohort and continued to expand through the fall of 2023. Across all programming, we experienced our highest placement rates to date at 85%.

National Urban League Central Carolinas partnered with our affiliate to raise awareness in the community about covid-19 vaccines. Since the ending of the pandemic, COVID vaccines became privatized and Community members had to go through their providers to get vaccinated and/or boosted. ULCC partnered with CVS/Aetna and Walmart Pharmacy to bring free COVID vaccine opportunities to our outreach events. Cross collaboration between ULCC and coalition partners was key in the outreach strategy. We took inventory of the resources that each partner had in relation to COVID vaccines and community engagement to formulate a plan that would increase ULCC presence at outreach events across the Charlotte Community. For example, at the black Men's wellness walk, ULCC was the only entity representing COVID prevention and vaccines. We distributed All-In and Flu vaccine information, COVID tests, and masks to inform and equip the community with preventative materials. Our most successful strategy was using what ULCC already has, People Power! Urban League is one of the most trusted Brands in the black community. ULCC increased its presence in the community at events that were not specifically geared toward health and wellness, but we brought All-in materials for distribution and used the opportunity to engage with community members and spread the word about COVID prevention, most importantly vaccines. We reached over 2500 people through this initiative and gained 12 community partnerships.

Project Ready is a program that is helps high school students prepare for college or career. Through partnerships with several high schools in the county and through funding from the National Urban League, we were able to serve 35 students in 2023 project ready. Also under the banner of project ready, ULCC put on First Day Ready where we made sure children on the southside of Charlotte had the school supplies and resources they needed to begin the school year. ULCC gave away over 300 pairs of shoes to the McKinney Vento population and 400 bookbags stuffed with supplies. We had over 30 volunteers, 5 corporate sponsors including Microsoft, Charter Spectrum, and Food Lion, and had several community resources on site to help with after school care and transportation. To ensure we were being inclusive and everyone had access to services, we started a new partnership with several Hispanic serving organizations such as Despierta and Our Bridge for Kids.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
