Good afternoon.

I would like the Executive Committee to consider allowing me to amend our
Family Leave policy. I believe the current policy that we have adopted, 6
weeks of leave at 50% salary is not a  reflection of our values.

I believe that after 3 years of employment it should be 6 weeks paid leave
at current salary. For the next 2 years we won't have anyone who would be
in a position to utilize this, except Josh, who is currently the only
employee we have that can use it now. The cost difference for Josh's leave
would be $7211.52 assuming he did not work for the full 6 weeks. I can't
imagine that would happen but that is the worst case scenario.

Today alone Josh secured 2 substantial contributions, a $25,000
contribution and a $10,000 golf sponsorship. I know we cannot pay Josh any
more in salary, but being able to provide this benefit would help
demonstrate that we are committed to our staff.

I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Many thanks for your
consideration.

Have a good evening!

Best--
Patty
