Objectives of the capital campaign
~ provide financial stability for our recurrent operational expenses
~ provide funding for new projects and expanded mission
~ keep conference costs as low as possible, especially for graduate students
The cost of running the Society
Our Annual Conference:
The expenses vary, and they increase considerably when we visit places outside of St. Louis. These conference expenses are generally carried by registration fees, but we often end up in the red for external conferences.
Other Annual Expenses:
Fathman Award and Annual Prize:
$700.
PayPal Service Charges:
$500.
Member Management System
$1,700.
T. S. Eliot Studies Annual
$3,300
Miscellaneous:
$200.
Total:
$6,400.
Roughly, we need $6,400 a year to run the Society, excluding the much larger cost of the conference.
The quiet phase of the campaign has so far raised $55,506.
Our goal for the capital campaign is $75,000.
