Suspend Training and Rewards Budget Items
« on: October 25, 2020, 03:26:43 am »
Until we've sorted out our funding model, we should suspend the training program and volunteer rewards program.

The training program used to require that the recipient coordinate events for the COC in exchange for training reimbursement.  I'm not sure if that's how it has been working all along.  Here's how it was described pre-2010:

We can set a training budget of zero for the coming year without having to change the program - it would just be that no requests for reimbursement would be approved for this year.

The volunteer rewards program is not motivating for volunteers, and thus is not, in my opinion, a responsible use of member money.  I would suspend this one indefinitely - a future executive team can look at reinstating it.  For now I want to give "motivated by heart" instead of "motivated by money" another chance at fueling the COC volunteer team.

1000% in agreement.  Funny I just finished writing an email that sounds a whole lot like what you just outlined there Rhonda.  Wish I had read your post first, could have copied/paste and saved myself a lot of time. lol
