Breakdown of Costs for the Women
Priests’ Project
In our women priests’
campaign we work almost entirely as volunteers who have freely given
up payment for our services. Most members of our core team and
our international cooperators work on a voluntary basis! Only one team member, our office administrator,
receives a (small) salary because his full-time services are indispensable.
We incur expenses
because we need to maintain a small central office where the core team can
correlate the work of our world-wide volunteers and complete the editing of
documents for inclusion on our website. The work requires research to identify
suitable material, retrieve texts, scan them into the computer, obtain
permissions, edit the texts on printing mistakes, convert the texts to
html-format, and link the texts within the structure of our site. Our annual costs amount to £ 50,000 a year (= $ 80,000).
We offer here a breakdown of these annual costs based on our accounts of
the last two years. Expenses of women priests’
project:
Premises
includes: rent, insurances, gas,
electricity, water, building repairs, council tax, etc. |
Salaries
Practically all our work is done by
volunteers. We pay a small salary for a full-time administrator. |
Office expenses
includes: telephone, postage, stationery, computer
maintenance, software licences, tea & biscuits, cleaning fees, etc. etc.
|
Travel
includes: refunds to volunteers of travel to
& from office, etc. |
Professional fees
includes: (some) translators,
auditor, subscriptions, miscellanea, etc. |
All these
expenses are necessary for us to function!
We
gladly provide more detailed information to donors, Friends or Sponsors on
request! |
