Financial Report

The repair and refresh committee held a meeting last night with discussion centered around work estimates, fundraising detail, decorate and design decisions and maitenance with regards to lighting and electrical work that has been done. Complete, detailed minutes of the meeting will be posted as soon as they are available. However for now, here is the current financial report for the R & R project.

Efforts from the fundraising sub-committee total $9,901 as of December 7, 2010. Here is a break down of that money:

-Past Fundraisers $446
-Pancake Breakfast $331
-Fish Fry $923
-St. Patty's Day Dinner $1015
-Chuck Wagon $2783
-Pulled Pork Dinner $1563
-Rada Knives $524
-Cards $520 (28 still available for sale)
-Calendars $620 (35 still available for sale)
-Banks (loose change in church piggy bank) $101
-Sale of Blender (via ebay) $75
-Sale of St. Bonafus Statue $750
-Wedding/Funeral Fees $250

Contributions from families and individuals total $113,477. That number reflects active and non-active parishioners, along with non-parishioners as well. The R &R committee would love to see all donations, no matter how little, from all Holy Trinity members. We would love for everyone to be apart of this extraordinary project!

Our checkbook currently reads a balance of $85,360.32. We still owe Kevin Autenrieb a balance of $15,000 that remains on our contract, which leaves an available total of $70,360.32. The committee has discussed other possible additions to interior work that have an estimated cost of $30,185, canvassing at an estimated $2,500, pew work at $7,071.88, replacing basement windows will cost $575, carpeting everything in the church except the sanctuary has an estimated cost of $12,500, and track lighting at $1,849.00. The committee will soon recieve a check from the ARS for $2,000 to cover the cost of the new crucifix. With all of these costs and credits tallied together and subtracted from the check book balance, estimated funds remaining stand at $17,679.48. The R & R project still needs to factor in the costs of exterior window repair, which is greatly needed and also very pricey, and also the needed updates to the bathroom, like wheelchair accessibility.


It is still very important to reach our $130,000 goal. Every little bit helps!
