On September 15, 2009, the Gift Committee met for the first time this term to discuss the process for selecting priority gift recipients and how to begin this year’s selection.  We decided to form a subcommittee to explore needs in the community around parental engagement, the Giving Circle’s strategic priority.

In addition, our Committee approved a recommendation for developmental gifts and we are very excited to share it with you! We have sent this recommendation to the Board and it will be coming to you soon in a separate announcement.  Watch for this gift announcement because we would like and need to hear your comments on this recommendation. The Board’s final approval of the developmental gift recipients will be at its December 8, 2009 meeting.

We invite all Giving Circle members to attend Gift Committee meetings and to become a part of the gift process.  In particular, if you are interested in serving on the subcommittee to evaluate priority gift possibilities, please contact Karen Snow or Peggy Stypula.

The next gift committee meeting is October 20, 2009 at 7 pm at City Hall.
