Who decides how the funding is allocated and how?
We currently have a board of five individuals. They will decide how the funds are used based on individual cases. The bottom line is that everyone has to die of something and we certainly cannot give everyone money. In a case where a member is in need of help we will provide as much assistance as our resources allow. If additional funds are needed, then a fundraiser specifically for that individual could be set-up. For example, a shift decides to organize an event to help a brother or sister who is battling a serious illness/injury. The individuals running the event can use the BCoFFF’s non-profit status to obtain the necessary permits and solicit donations from individual and coporate donors (which would be tax deductible). Any deposited funds would be encumbered to that particular brother/sister.
