After a few discussions, it came to my attention that what I wrote in my previous post regarding money was a bit confusing. To clarify…
- All money donated by a person to “The Hockey Volunteer” is only used for hockey related expenses, whether it be providing/shipping equipment to communities, training expenses, necessary gear, general expenses when volunteering
- Personally donated money will never be used for administrative expenses, whether it be a business computer, office rent, etc.
- Sponsorships, Foundation grants, and corporate donations will be the source of operating expenses, although excess revenue from these sources can also be for use on missions around the world
- Tourism expenses not relating to a particular mission fall under my own personal budget, not that of the individual donors
ALL of these practices are what responsible organizations already do, and I just wanted to reiterate them to you.
I hope this helps.
New post is already under construction!
