How the work is divided

Five core committees.

Each committee has a specific job so no one person controls the money or the decisions. Members must follow written rules for conflicts, voting, records, and public accountability.

✓

01

Fund Allocation Committee

Reviews eligible family, business, and community-project applications using the published scorecard. Recommends award amounts, restrictions, payment conditions, and follow-up requirements.

02

Finance & Audit Committee

Oversees budgets, contributions, reserves, reconciliations, expenses, payment controls, and financial reviews. It must remain independent from recipient selection whenever possible.

◎

03

Transparency & Accountability Committee

Maintains the Public Money Tracker, monthly reports, receipts, award records, corrections, and public disclosures while protecting confidential information.

04

Fundraising & Membership Committee

Builds recurring $2 participation, develops ethical fundraising campaigns, recruits members, coordinates donor appreciation, and monitors supporter retention.

⚖

05

Governance & Ethics Committee

Maintains bylaws, committee charters, conflict-of-interest rules, leadership standards, board recruitment, ethics reviews, and accountability procedures.

Required separation of duties

No founder, board member, or committee chair should control application review, award approval, payment release, bank reconciliation, and public reporting alone.

Bring your experience to the table

Good intentions still need people willing to do the work.

Come to a community meeting, ask questions, learn how the committees work, and decide where your experience can help.
