Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Any Fundraisers on This List?

[Kathryn McCamant (kmccamant]

Dear Ann and CoHoUS, 

We at Nevada City Cohousing have always carried funds in our annual HOA budget 
to support the Association, along with encouraging members to do more as they 
are able on their own. But we can easily forget if we don't get a notice for 
our annual contribution from the Cohousing Association. Will the CohoUS be 
sending out reminders and encouragement to all communities to make 
contributions soon?  We are in the process of developing our 2021 HOA Budget 
now, so getting such notices out in September would likely be the most 
effective time.

    Hi Folks,

    As I'm sure will not surprise anyone we need to fundraise regularly to keep
    CoHo US going.  We have a small Fundraising Committee but not enough real
    expertise in the field.  We are requesting suggestions of *cohousing
    fundraisers*, or those with experience from other Boards to join our
    Fundraising Committee.  Please even if you have limited time consider at
    least contacting me (ann [at] zimmerman-lehman.com or 510.755.5701) so we 
can
    discuss how you might contribute or someone you know who might be a good
    addition?

    As my late husband, Bob Zimmerman (a fundraiser extraordinaire) used to
    say, "Many board members and staff view fundraising as "genteel
    begging" *rather
    than *as creating opportunities for citizens (coho members) to invest in a
    successful enterprise (CoHo US).  Let's help all of us invest in

    success
