On Saturday evening, March 7th, BHC members gathered at Ruth S.'s apartment for a semi-annual general membership meeting. We received an update on the progress of our efforts to incorporate and our search for a permanent venue.
Three of our members completed the volunteer training for the veterans in hospice project with the Visiting Nurse Service of New York, and one is already actively visiting hospice patients. One member suggested we do some work on Alzheimer's. We also agreed to begin collecting nonperishables to send to food pantries, which are hurting for donations due to the economic downturn.
Bruce, our Treasurer, reported that 13 members have already paid their annual dues in part or in full. During the meeting several members handed in dues, bringing us up over the threshold we needed to begin the incorporation process. Thanks to all who have contributed, and full speed ahead!
