Development Committee Funds Overview

Discussion on the following topics

  1. The numbers is Annual Fund need to be fixed to align board giving versus one-time and recurring. Some donations from Board members were inaccurately assigned to the wrong bucket. Denise and Michelle will work to correct. 
  2. Lorena has corrected the giving for Athletics to ensure that all funds are assigned correctly. 
  3. Should % participation be a necessary metric for Staff and Board. For Board yes as it can help with grant approvals (LC) for staff giving the committee decided that it needs to be revisited as its not clear what the metric is being used for and if it poses a sensitive nature.
