Whitman Aid to the Elderly and Disabled Taxation Fund Committee - May 13, 2026 meeting

The Whitman Aid to the Elderly and Disabled Taxation Fund Committee held a meeting on May 13, 2026, focusing primarily on fundraising efforts and financial updates. The committee discussed a recent issue with payment processing that resulted in a shortfall of $63, adjusting the fund's total to $4,780.94. They reviewed upcoming fundraising events, including a trivia night scheduled for June 17 at the Knights of Columbus, and plans to secure a raffle permit through the Knights of Columbus due to local regulations. The committee also discussed participation in Whitman Day on June 11, coordinating efforts to accept donations and promote their assistance application, which they plan to make available online before the event. Budget considerations included the recent 501(c)(3) nonprofit status expenses and maintaining sufficient funds for grant disbursements, with flexible award amounts to be decided by the committee based on applicants' needs. No contract awards, RFPs, or vendor selections were discussed during this meeting.
