Well there hasn't been any other nominations for the Support Fund
committee. I'm not going to go through with this without at least 3
members on the committee. I'll wait another 2 weeks and we'll have to
abandon the idea then if no nominations come forth because I'm not
going to do this because of conflict of interest.
it has been very nice and i want to thank all the members willing to
monetarily support this potential project.
thanks,
joseph

Hi Joseph,
What would these funds be used
for. I'm not real clear on this...
Well the support committee would be making the final decision on that.
But my reason for suggesting the funds creation was to have small
stipends available to send to members of the Ranchos group that found
themselves in need. And for causes that would directly benefit the
purpose of the Ranchos group. We would all be able to submit
suggestions for the use of the funds but the committee would make the
final decision on the distribution.

For now we are over a hundred members strong. I would like to run
something past you that is open for discussion. Would anyone object to
having a completely optional "Ranchos Support Fund"?
I was thinking if a few of us sent in a few buck we might be able to
have $100 stipends available to send off to members that are in need or
for projects that are supportive of the Ranchos Group. This effort
would need a volunteer "use" committee which would have at least 3
members (no ties) and one of those would be a treasurer to hold the
funds. Before the "use" committee would decide on a "use" they would
bring up the use for group discussion. but after the discussion the
decision for the use would be made by the committee.
If this is something that you all would consider going forward on then
I would like to nominate Kitty Cortez to be one of the committee
members and possibly the Treasurer. Also I would like to pledge $25 to
start the contributions.
But all that is premature if you all think this is not something
worthwhile.
what say ye?
joseph
