  • Jenny: Sent in our 990EZ (federal) and 199N (State) tax forms last week (nonprofit deadline is May 15). I'd imagined we'd have had to file the full forms, but even with the grants and donations from last year (totaling ~$122K), our average over 3 years was still only $42K since we made virtually no income in 2017 and 2016. Forms were digitally filed here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Dx8p0GPu1aq0FExz7kf90AX6xzec0M0o
  • Need to coordinate a bank party to a) remove Matt Senate from the account and b) add designated Finance WG people (Mai, Benny, Ben, Null? there may be a limit, will ask) - all signers AND Matt have to be physically present at the bank to do so (or we attempt once more to get our account with Beneficial functional).
    • I'll be wherever I need to be to help with this. Thanks -Null
  • Moving forward, Reimbursements and payments on invoices will be issued on the Third Friday of the month
  • The board also needs to sign a 'Self-Dealing Resolution' whenever we decide to pay an officer or director
