A.
Review Development Goals
Reviewed committee goals and perhaps thinking about making more inclusive goals for next year. Reviewed FY18-19 goals. Discussed the cheat sheet to articulate the what the why for fundraising in terms of goals for FY19-20 to create a useful tool for fundraising. Having email templates for new board members and evergreen for people to use throughout the year is helpful. Subpoint of the cheat sheet goal is creating an archive of all email templates and materials. In terms of second goal-corporate relationship creation. Figuring out what corporate identities would give and what would be the most effective to target and who has a contact and using it that way. If a board member is at a corporate institution, there should be the ask. Cathy sets strategy for corporate relationships and works with Development Committee in supporting the strategy through fundraising with board members. In partnership with development director, help identify corporations that board members have relationships to execute on org strategy.

Will discuss when to do an event when Cathy begins in July. As far as June Fundraising push, email solicitation will come from Claudia.
