OLD BUSINESS:
ARC –Roughly $1850.00 was collected by five participating credit unions. A check for $2,500 will be issued to the charity and delivered within the next two weeks.
Race for a Cure – Julie will reach out to Kathi to get an update on Race for a Cure. The event is coming up on May 16th. We are sponsoring a table at the event and many credit unions are raising funds and/or participating. Because participation fees benefit the organization, each credit union should include donations and participation fees as part of their total contribution to this cause.
NEW BUSINESS:
Membership – Kellee Manchik has stepped down from the charity committee. Thank you Kellee for all your hard work. Julie will be completing the secretary duties at this time. Kellee’s departure leaves five people on the committee. The committee will continue to seek out new members. The committee will also reach out to the Chapter’s Programs and EventsCommittee to see if joining forces would be beneficial to both.
School Supplies – Julie and Shannon will partner on the School Supply Initiative. We will collect donations and supplies for organizations in Macomb and Oakland County. Julie will do everything in her power to prep the initiative prior to her maternity leave in July.
Communication – Julie reported that the Executive Committee voted to transfer the maintenance of the Chapter’s website to MCUL. This will mean that the Charity Committee’s pages will be removed at some point and that we will begin using the Chapter’s home page to announce upcoming initiatives. Julie will also reach out to Stephanie Klocinski to set up a meeting to discuss additional communication options for the committee.
