“The board determines ed compensation through a process whereby a compensation committee evaluates the labor market and comparable salary information. Ongoing compensation rates are determined by a process of performance evaluation and market-based increases to cost of living. The ed is not involved in the process of determining compensation, nor is any related party. 2020 was the first year the ed position was full-time and salaried. The ad hoc committee then consisted of 4 members. The committee researched eight non-profit organizations, within the same labor market, that had similarity in some way to tri. Size of organization, annual revenue, age of organization were taken into consideration when looking at the ed salary for each of these organizations, compared to tri. Based on the compilation of that data, the revenue history and revenue projections for tri for the coming year, the committee made a recommendation to the board of directors for the ed salary and benefits. The board voted and approved the recommendation.”

“By partnering with vulnerable communities in ethiopia, we strive to equip vulnerable people to live stable and sustainable lives. Our mission is to cultivate community development and economic capacity by empowering families through education, health and income generating activities. Our work with vulnerable communities over the past 10 years has firmly formed our understanding of this reality: quality education, access to accurate information and direct physical health care, and the opportunity to secure income and economic stability are critical factors in sustaining life outside of poverty. Our model is strategically designed to replace the cycle of generational loss, joblessness and chronic illness with a cycle of restoration by focusing our programs on strengthening education, health care and livelihoods. True sustainability is only possible when the attitudes, beliefs and behaviors within a community support its continued development. We are relentlessly focused on increasing community ownership throughout the life of each 7-10 year project so that community leaders can transition into full support of project activities.”
