Donations 

Donations for the year stand at $9,182. Though ahead of our budgeted projections for this time, we are still working to try and make up a projected shortfall of $3,800 for the year.

Building Rentals

In our May meeting, the committee came to the conclusion our current rental business would not recover in 2020. We need to find a different rental opportunity. We are looking into that now. We had no rental income for April or May.

May Expenses

Our expenses are being kept to the minimum required to keep the building healthy and looking great for a potential renter. In order to maintain this appearance, we need to continue to pay for cleaning, gas, electricity, water and garbage. 

Future Expenses

We have contacted First Congregational United Church of Bellevue regarding stopping payment as a result of our not being able to use their building for Friday latihans. They have agreed.  They will also welcome us back when it is safe to do so. We have also reduced our monthly donation to the region from $800/month to $300/month.

Revised 2020 Budget 

Due to our inability to rent the building through AirBnB or to rent out the hall for individual events, we have recast the budget assuming that income from these rentals will not be coming in through the end of 2020. All AirBnB staff has been laid off. We are still paying for house cleaning and yard maintenance.  This, again, is to keep the house looking good for another rental option.

Your Donations As Important As Ever

Thanks for those who have setup monthly donations

Thanks to all our monthly donators who have a recurring donation sent from their bank.  You save on envelopes and stamps.  And, you don’t have to remind yourselves to write a check. These regular checks really help us meet our monthly commitments to the region and pay for our use of our facilities. 

If you’d like to know how to setup a recurring donation to our group through your bank, please contact me.
