  • Allocated funds are from donors who have made a general donation earlier, and apportioned a portion of that for this effort.
  • While we respect each donor’s interest in supporting a specific cause, project or campaign, the Board retains the authority (aligned with 501c3 regulations) to redirect their donations if the Board perceives greater needs elsewhere in the community.
