New from Jim
1. We will have a general meeting in Seattle after Latihan Sunday, October 13th. We hope to hold the length to 1/2 hour.
We would like to discuss increasing our donation to the region.
2. The region has retired our loan of $7000 for house painting and has converted it to a match as we raised that much in earmarked donations, thanks to the generous donations from members and centers locally and throughout the United states
3. The region still needs a secretary, and if not a secretary then someone to transcribe notes from the regional board meetings which take place as conference calls. This would be a great boon!

Fund Raising Update – Now Your Dollars Can Go Even Further
I have exciting news for those of you who can give a little more. A recent resolution by the SPNW board – sponsored by members of our group – allows every dollar we raise toward a loan to be considered a grant that the group will not have to repay. The $7000 loan we have from the housing fund will turn into a grant once an additional $1,511 has been raised. Please consider donating these funds at your earliest possible opportunity.
I am happy to report that we have just received a generous donation from Subud California at Arcata of $500. This is a significant step toward reaching the member 47% share of costs to repair our building. Remember the Centerprise will provide 53% of these costs ($12,253) which are now at $23,119.
Outside of the loan from SPNW we still need to raise an additional $3,866. Any funds you can provide for this effort will assist us in meeting these costs. We have currently raised $5,489.
Note: Should you be able to pledge to contribute these funds, please let me know and I will add your name to those who have pledged. Currently we have remaining pledges of $300.
More Upcoming Events!
Matching Donations! If you donate to Subud Pacific Northwest at Seattle and earmark your donation to go toward the painting project, your gift will be matched by the SPNW housing fund. Please hurry-our final bill will be coming any day!
