Endowment Task Force Update: October 1, 2021

The task force recently held its 8th meeting and we have three more scheduled for October. 

After the task force discussed our own experiences and after we looked at the concerns from members of the congregation, we found about 130 particular issues to examine.  We then refined those to 17 larger topics which incorporate all of the original issues. 

In our last few meetings, we have listed ideas for how to address these topics.  We have not finished this step yet, but hope to complete that task soon.   

Some members have made suggestions for the task force to consider.  If you have any ideas for improving aspects of how the Endowment Fund is managed and distributed,  the task force would love to learn about them.  Please send any such suggestions to  BOT@ucevanston.org or romeo.joe@gmail.com. Please be as brief as possible. 

Our next step will be to evaluate which solutions seem most workable and whether some of them could be combined so that we have a manageable list of viable solutions. 

Progress has been very good.
