Finance Minutes for 24 October 2007

In attendance:

  • Tim Shadix
  • Jens Lund Snee
  • Brittany Smith

Tim:

  • Jessie’s fundraising idea: People auction themselves as dates for an arranged catered dinner
    • Tim’s modification: People give donations to be placed in a “blind date pool,” then are randomly assigned a date for the evening
    • Plan is to possibly hand this one over to the Greeks as a fundraiser on our behalf
  • We need to send out Thank Yous to buyers and donors from our auction. Joseph is making a template
  • IMPORTANT: If you were the contact with a business that donated anything for the auction, make sure to give them a copy of our tax receipt as soon as possible if you have not already. The tax receipt was sent out most recently as an attachment in Yukta’s e-mail titled “Important Document.” [ed note: also available here]

Jens:

  • Already made a Thank You for Reid staff, will deliver
  • Only a couple items from the auction have not been picked up. They are all students Jens knows, so will contact within next couple days

Tasks:

  • Sending thank you notes as soon as the template is available
  • Everyone come to next week’s meeting with a couple ideas for fundraising events we can do
  • We need a new team to take over selling advertising space. Anyone interested?
  • Contact people in Greek organizations and clubs about doing fundraising events for us
