Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The BCT board will be more engaged in the process of "telling our story" to the community at large and expand and deepen our connection with our donors. All board members will participate in fundraising by reaching out to members of the community that we have connections with and we will at least double our current number of donors and amount of support from donations.
