Benevolence fund: It was discussed that we need to be able to track how much financial need there is yearly so we will now be requiring each need to be accompanied by a funding request form. The form will NOT have any names of the children needing assistance but will have the amount needed, what it is for and when it is needed by. These needs will be addressed at each meeting. If a need can not wait until the next reg. meeting an emergency meeting of 3 board members will be called.
FUNDRAISING:
e-SCRIP: Shawna K. is still working to get the PPC enrolled. She is having issues with being able to reach the right person that can make the changes we need to make this work. She is making calls daily to try to get this working.
AUCTION:
Donation letter has been approved and is being printed on ivory paper this week. Corinne and Christy will keep all the business addresses and will make labels so that each business will get a letter mailed to them.
