And the progress just keeps rollin along!
Whew, it’s been a busy few weeks and months!
Let me attempt to try and summarize all that has happened since my last post:
- After a lot of work on behalf of the P&D Committee and the Board, Lillith Grove was incorporated as a LLC in early April of 2006! yeah!!! So, we are now: Lillith Grove Women’s Center, LLC!!!
- After receiving confirmation that we filed for incorporation with the Secretary of State (Delaware), we applied for and received our tax id #.
- Soon after filing for incorporation, we also applied for our Business License! yes, we are an OFFICIALLY recognized business in the state of Delaware!
- The initial partnership met and executed the LLC Operating Agreement, truly making Lillith Grove a reality!
- We have opened up our business banking account, allowing our members to pay for dues ONLINE, as well as offering an easy way for our prospective members to pay for initial dues, or other supporters to make monetary donations to Lillith Grove and our programming goals. It is also hopeful that this makes our Treasurer’s job easier!
What else??
We were in need of a volunteer to step up and take the vacant secretary’s position and it was soon filled by Paula - a woman with a huge heart and lots of energy for LG!! We’re so glad to have her on board!
Also, we’ve been conducting a kitty rescue of a suspected colony in and around LG. This has been spearheaded by our Activities Chair, Janelle - a true kitty lover and all-around phoenominal woman! So far, our search has yielded one female adult and one male adult cat and 3 babies about 4 weeks old. All of them CUTE CUTE CUTE!
The Facilities Committee continues to amaze me on their hard work and dedication to seeing that LG shines. From moving furniture and years of stuff, to knocking down walls and rebuilding new ones - this group of volunteers is truly amazing!!! Because this Committee has the most ongoing responsibilities, we are always looking for extra sets of hands - please send a note to board@lillithgrove.com if you can help!
The Events Committee has A LOT of fabulous events and activities planned, remember to always check out our events calendar: http://www.lillithgrove.com/events.html and visit it often as events are added all the time!
I still remain hopeful that other board members will chime in - I’d love for them to take advantage of this opportunity to document where we’re going… together.
Til next time,
Val
