Dear DOCF Affiliates, Friends, and Members

This newsletter comes to you with with an earnest desire that you are holding steadfast in your faith of tomorrow's unseen and trusting in brighter days for our community. 

As we settle into the "new normal", we are also getting back to the new business at hand. The Foundation will embark upon a new biennium, and a new Executive Board cycle. We need your support as we conduct our first virtual election during our General Body meeting, August 27, 2020. We need a minimum of 80 eligible voting members in order to hold our election and vote on our Policies & Procedures. The slate and impending P&P recommendations are included below. Please take a moment to review prior to the meeting. 

It has been a privilege to serve as your Chair. Thank you for trusting me with this portion of our legacy. I hope that we will continue our path forward. I appreciate your vote of confidence and partnership as we look to the future. 

Peace and Blessings,


Sandra L. Galmon
