Present: Jody Blum (Chairperson), Daniel Gamulka, Esther Edell, Dov Cooper, Alain Rosenthal, Philip Yakar
The following changes will be instituted:
a) The childrens' activities will be split into three lines: expenses, leaders paid with a t'lush and those without.
b) Salaries will be listed separately (administration, janitor, secretary).
c) In the actual 2005 column, the money paid to Tutti Bros. for pre-Pesach cleaning will be transferred to maintenance from cleaning (5000 NIS +).
d) The committee is not convinced there is a need for the Yedidion to be published this year, but has budgeted it. Should it be cancelled, the 6500 NIS cost could be the beginning of a reserve fund.
Recommended they be raised by 50 NIS across the board. Part of the income will be treated as a donation and will, therefore, be tax-deductible. The maximum allowable will be checked with appropriate experts (accountants etc.).
Recommended that new members will receive a 25% discount, instead of 50%. This increase in dues is essential to balance the budget. The committee is aware that an appeal for donations for chairs will be made.
The committee recognizes the need for the setting-up of a reserve fund and asks that the Development Committee develop appropriate fund-raising mechanisms.
Recommended that the following tariff change be adopted.
For events/chugim run by members the price will be, instead of 75 NIS, 50 NIS per hour, unless the renter charges participants a fee; in which case the fee will be that of non-members. The non-members fee will be 300 NIS for no more than three hours; every additional hour100 NIS.
As of today, 106,000 NIS in the bank.
It was suggested that a request for a donation be written on cards given at the time of Aliyot, etc.
