Tying into membership is New Club Building
• Two goals 2 new clubs for the biennium, and
• Identifying areas for expansion and new club building.
• Bring all District Clubs to Charter strength.
Financial/Organization
• Replenish the funds in reserve to at least the minimum of a 1 year’s budget.
• Investigate grants available to organizations such as Altrusa, and take advantage of opportunities that may present themselves.
Service

– This is a big one for me –
• Make Altrusa well known in every market where we have an Altrusa Club. There should be no blank looks when the name Altrusa is mentioned. To this end, I will work with my committee chairs to strategize on how to best disseminate information about Altrusa.
