Minutes of Funding Committee Meeting

Date: 9/27/03

Present: D. Niemira, M. Mongan, R. Palmer, L. Piotrowski J. Murphy left early

Reviewed possible tasks of the group and setting of long and short term goals.  Functions of committee will depend on resource needs of the coalition and its other committees as well as funding opportunities and decision regarding financial contribution of partners/ membership dues. Immediate opportunities for Rallying Points grants, both through certificate program and through opportunity grant were discussed. There is a deadline on the opportunity grant and there is no guarantee of award; however application process is fairly simple.

Long term goals---90 days

1.  We will have a RP Opportunity grant in the mail

2.  We will have some response from membership committee about contributions expected from partners and about membership dues.

3.  We will have responses from the other committees, including the steering committee about the resource needs of each group so we can coordinate and plan for the long term.

Short term goals---next meeting

1. Review proposals from committees for Opportunity Grant and select best project.

2. Contact membership committee about dues issue.

3. Review any resource needs submitted by other committees.

Assigned tasks:

1. Denise---draft letter to committees and steering committee members about opportunities available from Rallying Points.  Review with committee any proposals received.

2. Madeleine--circulate information from this committee to others and coordinate means of discussion of proposal (i.e. email   or conference call;  initiate conversation with membership committee about dues and income from partners.

3. Linda and Roseann-- investigate other sources of funding activities
