Board plans outreach booth, new banner and T-shirts to boost donations and visibility
Summary
Members asked for a city events calendar and agreed to staff outreach booths (weekend/after-hours), order a new banner and consider new T-shirts to identify volunteers and collect cat-food donations at events.
Board members discussed ways to increase community engagement and donations, asking staff for an events calendar so they can sign up to staff outreach booths at city events. The chair asked staff to provide a calendar of upcoming events and suggested promoting specific activities on flyers, such as cat-food donation points, so residents can prepare to donate.
Members volunteered to staff the booth when events occur outside work hours and suggested wearing T-shirts while feeding so they are identifiable to neighbors. "I'm gonna go ahead and order a new banner," the chair said; members also discussed arranging T-shirt orders and asked staff who coordinates apparel. They suggested using the Friday newsletter and water-bill notices to raise awareness and asked staff to confirm who organizes each event so the board can request space for a table in advance.
The meeting recorded no public commenters on these outreach plans; members emphasized coordinated volunteer teams (Sandra, Rosaura, Sabrina) and the goal of collecting donations and educating neighbors at events.
