Save S.A.M. Presentation

Beth Diller reported that the Save S.A.M. organization sent 650 letters asking for donations. She said that she received a few responses indicating that donations were possible after the organization became a 501(C)3 organization. She also said that she got an offer of donations of a non-monetary form – a set of antique china. Save S.A.M. is looking into how they can use this kind of donation. Beth also said that Save S.A.M. is going face-to-face with area merchants, and is looking to present other fund-raising activities, such as a Valentine Dance for adults at a local banquet hall.

Supt. Hill followed her presentation with a teaser for the Volunteer Coach/Sponsor Program, which he said might help reduce the fees for extra-curricular activities. He mentioned that Save S.A.M. may have a key role in organizing this program. There is more on the Volunteer Coach/Sponsor Program a little further down in this report.
