Thanks Pam. It sounds to me like you are saying that 1.) Our tax return should serve effectively as a de-facto annual report, such that no separate report is needed, and 2.) The tax return is based on our fiscal year which is from July to June.

Thanks Pam.

As to the financial statistics - it would be really helpful to me, as I chug along later this month, to know what y'all will want.

Thanks. I will consult with Patricia via email since it sounds like she will be writing this.

Begin with the end in mind, someone once said.

That is from "The Seven Rabbits of Highly Defective People" by Stephen Covey. --VH

I think this sounds like something we want to pursue. Matt and Heather both pulled some preliminary numbers for me to report to the membership at the party. The reason it is important that we include December is, of course, that we do a good bit of our successful fundraising now. But I think we can get the bird numbers and any interesting factoids about the birds (why are our XXXX birds so much higher? where do they come from? etc.) and fill in $$$ at the very last. Total $$ this year, perhaps broken done in major sources (donations, adoption fees, grants) compared to last year? And Patty has kindly offered to help craft the document.

This is the annual report I did for several years for WRI. It's pretty simple, and we added animal data (numbers of each species received) and volunteer hours and # of speaking engagements. Nice snapshot of the year, and was required by law. I got the format from another (much larger) nonprofit's communications.

This looks like one schedule of the tax return (when we're required to file the full-blown version, vs the "EZ" version). If this is what we want, I can do - will set aside MLK day to handle.

Martha - thanks for the template. All - attached please find the requested financial information. Keep in mind these are *unofficial* numbers, published to *this audience* only for purposes of the press release discussed earlier. "Unofficial" because a) our official fiscal year is 7/1-6/30, not calendar year, and b) to produce these numbers this fast and account for as many end-of-year contributions as feasible (to the tune of almost $7K), Heather and I did some work we don't usually do. In more general terms, there's more income in what you see than you would under normal circumstances. The attachment should be good enough to produce the more generalized message intended. To reiterate, we should not be publishing the absolute numbers in any articles or websites. The percentages are ok. Let me know what questions anyone has about the numbers, this weekend if possible. The backup documentation which I might need to answer your questions are on my personal laptop, and I'm out of town next week on a business trip. Happy New Year, everyone! - Pam -----Original Message----- From: media-advisors-bounces@mickaboo.org [mailto:media-advisors-bounces@mickaboo.org] On Behalf Of Martha Kudlacik Sent: Monday, December 13, 2010 10:22 PM To: Mickaboo media advisor team Subject: Re: [Media-advisors] can we use this INSANITY for a pressrelease/story? This is the annual report I did for several years for WRI. It's pretty simple, and we added animal data (numbers of each species received) and volunteer hours and # of speaking engagements. Nice snapshot of the year, and was required by law. I got the format from another (much larger) nonprofit's communications. I think our financial data would be MUCH simpler than this even, seeing as it mostly goes to vet bills. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This message w/attachments (message) is intended solely for the use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or proprietary.
