Financial statements for July 1 through January 31 are attached. Income and expenses are both somewhat under budget for the fiscal year to date, and the net of income over expenses so far is $4,956. In last month's report I said that donations were a concern because the annual appeal letter was late coming out. However in January we received almost $3,000 in donations, and then in the first week of February (not reflected in the attached reports) we received an anonymous donation of $5,000, so we are in much better shape with respect to donations.

FYI all, on February 14 I am leaving for about 6 weeks in Africa. I will have some internet access, of varying quality, while I'm gone. I should be able to keep up with paying any necessary bills, and I will try to have financial reports for our March meeting, but I almost certainly will not attend the March meeting because it will be at 3:30 in the morning where I will be in rural Uganda, plus my internet connection probably won't be of sufficient bandwidth and quality to support Skype.
