Annual Board Fundraising Campaign
Gillian Matteson reviewed the Board commitment of raising $10,000 and identified the need to start discussions with the Board with respect to individual giving plans. These conversations will start with the September 2022 Board Meeting with a goal of Board commitments no later than the November 2022 Board Meeting.
C.
Online Giving Infrastructure
Gillian Matteson discussed the need to have a technology interface that would allow The Anchor School to receive philanthropic donations. Ideally this would be through a link on the TAS website that would launch to the interface. Josh Pinto Taylor will explore the options within SalesForce over the next few weeks. The goal is no later than the November 2022 Board Meeting to have this infrastructure in place.
D.
Grant Prospecting
Gillian Matteson discussed the importance for the Board to provide any information on potential grants to the Committee. Josh Pinto Taylor reported a grant award of $100,000 (New School Leader Fellow) which allows TAS to now compete for an additional $300,000.

Schedule CRM Professional Development
Gillian Matteson discussed the merits of scheduling CRM professional development. After discussion, the Committee determined that a high-level review of the CRM system and information needs would be sufficient at this time and the need for systems-training to be reviewed at a later date.
B.
Determine Regular Meeting Schedule
The Committee will assess its roles and responsibilities and seek input regarding other committee meeting schedules to determine the regular meeting schedule and time.
