Our long-time CoFiA member, friend and treasurer, Donna Maxwell, is retiring from the position at the end of the year. Donna has been a stalwart manager of our funds, working closely with our bookkeeper Norm Smith to be sure everything is in order. We are enormously grateful.
Now we must look for someone to replace her! The job is not particularly time-consuming but does require the kind of careful attention to detail that Donna has consistently provided.
Here is a brief description of the responsibilities of the treasurer:
*Write and forward checks as necessary (to staff members, etc.)
* Pay bills
*Maintain and balance check register
*Inform the volunteer bookkeeper of transactions, compare balances, rectify as needed
*Check mail at Post Office and forward as necessary
*Deposit incoming revenue at the bank
*Maintain files of financial records, including bank statements
*Attend to tax and charitable filings.
Please let our co-chairs (Ruth Swinney and Carolyn Sobering) know if you could assume this responsibility, or if you have suggestions of someone who might be able to do it.
