Treasurer's Finance update:

  • we resolved the rent situation (december rent check got lost).
  • we regained control of the PG&E account (yay!)
  • great end of year donations! … we need this every month XD
  • we’re looking for Julio, who is the owner of the meetup account, so event organizers can create tickets for their events. we instituted a minimum fee for sewing for instance, and this would help making sure a) folks show up and b) handling payments
  • please everyone, look into whether you work for a company matching donations! And if so, pay your membership dues through this!
  • we’re trying to set up paypal giving but i’ve had no luck getting hold of customer service
  • really need to look into savings accounts - @dana had done the groundwork on this
