ACCOUNTING AND GRANT WRITING

Bina was gracious enough to take over the bookkeeping function. We had a meeting last night. Geert, Bina and myselves were there. We reorganized the bookkeeping protocol for the JW House. Bina gave me a few tips to keep up with the book entry. She will be taking over the categorizing of income and expense.

We are going to add an event account so that we can keep tract of income and expense for events that runs by the JW House.

It will be an improvement from what we were doing before in terms of book keeping.

I and Anne Marie met with a friend of hers who gave us some tips as to how to apply for grants. We discussed about the difficulty for a new non profit to compete for grant. We are still in the building phase. We do not have a concrete budget for programing. This will make it difficult for Foundations to evaluate us.
We were encouraged to keep trying which we sure will.
