Board Meeting (Dissolving)


10 APRIL 2021 / 10:00 AM 


ATTENDEES:


Theresa Vold, Jyl Campbell , Kate DeCoux, Karol Echegaray


AGENDA:

Theresa brings up the topic of dissolving Rescue 55021.

Reasons that have made it harder to continue:

  • Rescue keeps growing, yet no extra help has been added
  • Not many volunteers, requiring current volunteers to have extra work
  • Theresa feeling overwhelmed with not having personal time for herself and her family
  • Theresa and Jyl both need more time for themselves and their health
  • Have no one to help exclusively with fundraisers 
  • Couldn’t find volunteers to come in to Rescue and commit long term
  • Very short on foster homes for dogs
  • Many foster failed
  • Some no longer were able to commit time
  • Not many new fosters could step up

Jyl will start her own dog rescue called Tj’s Landing would step down by the end of the year anyway

That means finding new board members and its very tedious to find people

 (Again it's volunteer work yet the time commitment of a full time job)


Rescue members took a vote to dissolve : All members agreed to dissolve.

(See reasons above)
