OSL Members Notice 8/9/13
Members at this time I would like to have us all consider
what the OSL has in place as an unwritten agreement, which is tithing. Tithing
from each chapter’s income source: chapter dues, fundraisers, conferences, etc.
tithing to the Region.
The tithe is used in support of the regions council
needs. The activities of the council are varied, normal funding needs are for
the following: seeding dollars for individual chapters, to fund a conference;
that fund may be reimbursed from the conference income. Travel expenses as the
council deems necessary and minor operating expenses. Further, a tithing of
this fund goes from each region, to our OSL parent body.
No action is required to this notice except, to recognize
this as a continuing part of our OSL practice.
