问题 BOARD MEETING SUMMARY REPORT:
Since the Rowers Foundation was established in 1960, we have accepted financial support for our scholarship programs. However, donations to the foundation have been diminishing over the past months due to economic constraints affecting our corporate benefactors. If this continues, the foundation will be incapable of going ahead with our scheduled projects for next year.
During the foundation’s quarterly board meeting on Friday September 30, the chairperson proposed to temporarily stop accepting new scholars and funding overseas study programs. However, a majority of the board members disagreed with the proposal, saying it would not be the best solution to the problem. Thus, instead of limiting grants, the board has decided to seek aid from private individuals. The board plans to encourage executives and young professionals to sponsor a scholar’s education by donating a portion of their monthly earnings. This campaign would be carried out in major business districts across the country. Apart from this, the board is considering accepting contributions and selling items on the Rowers Foundation Web site to generate additional funds.
Rowers will continue to solicit funding from corporate bodies, but is hopeful about the proposed funding methods. Public relations director Michelle Depuis says "We are counting on these solutions to generate enough money to bring the level of scholarships up to where it was previously."
