    Friends of Togo Meeting and Pot Luck

    Sunday, June 24, 2012
    FOT meeting
    The annual election meeting was held in Alexandria, Virginia. Discussion included
    • FOT financial report
    • New requirements for FOT funded project, specifically
      • money is transferred through the Peace Corps office
      • each FOT-funded project must involve an active Peace Corps volunteer
      • several new groups of returned volunteers have been formed to support specific projects independent of FOT (though we are in contact with and working with them).
    • Given the changes in fund transfer methods and the new groups, the question was raised and discussed of what the role of FOT should be. We will be soliciting comments and suggestions on the future role of FOT from members and interested persons.
    • Officers were elected. The new officers are
      • President: Ruith Reeder
      • Vice President: Anne Kaiser
      • Secretary: Ellen Levin
      • Treasurer: Dan Geisler
    We encourage members to become more active in the organization.

    The date of the next meeting will be announced on this website and by email
