Alliance For Education
Ben will pursue committee's questions and bring revision (Draft #6) to next meeting. Proposed revisions include: once per year limit on contacting GSHF donors, go with "opt-out" only if no telephone contacts, and provision that if the Foundation should be terminated, any remaining funds would be distributed per the Foundation By-laws.

Vote on whether or not to go with the AFE will be made at the next meeting.

GHSF 501(c)(3)
The Steering Committee will not pursue this – can be re-evaluated by the upcoming Board.

By-Laws
Peter will send most recent revision out to everyone via email. Please read and send suggestions to Peter before next meeting.

Mission Statement:

Fall 2003 Event
Budget for Benaroya was presented. More venues to be considered. Susan will talk to Marcus Tsutakawa to see if there is anyone on Benaroya Board who is connected to GHS who could help with costly food fee. Judith, Lynne and Mary Lou to took into other possible venues. Discussion regarding cost of the event, whether or not ticket price must cover full cost, what appropriate ticket cost would be.

Will try to decide on date and place at our next meeting.
