Grant information 

Current Grants: 

Siletz grant 22-03 – 253.75 remaining 

We had another donor write us a check for $500 and we are going to track these funds although there were no restrictions on the funds.  

Chambers Grant for canning lids and freezer bags – all item purchased. Just need to be sorted 

We do track our funds the best we can. PCS also tracks fund in QuickBooks. Just for reference: We started the year with about 14,054.30 in restricted funds for the gleaners. Our current funds are 13,728.94. This means that we have only depended upon the PCS finances in the amount of $325.36. This is huge as we work really hard to be a self-sufficient program and are extremely thankful that PCS works hard to pay the power bill, keep the cooler running, fix broken faucets, etc. It is the effort of all of our members who make fundraising possible!  

 

Grants Pending responses:  

 

Grants Working on:  

Fred Meyer Community Grant – Alicia is requesting for Toilet paper and Paper towels – it is almost ready to sent out  

Walmart Community Grant – PCS redid a grant for May so we will try to do in August. 

Bi-Mart Community Grant – Still working on this one  

Roundhouse – requesting food and hygiene items. Grant is almost complete. 

Timmy is looking into Patagonia grants

Old Business 

  • Benton County Fair recap  

  • Crazy Dayz will be August 20th 

  • There is still about 100.00 remaining from the 1000 that we had donated for the program. We were just tracking for our own purposes. Alicia will no longer track. We have been using supply funds for the dots and other needs as well. We have more than made good use of the funds.  

 New Business 

  • We require 5 hours for Volunteer time.  

  • We need people to help with target this week. 

  • Be mindful of the amount of produce. Example if there are 5 melons only take one. We are meant to supplement your grocery budget.
