Our plan is to establish sub-projects within the Foundation which are specific and impactful, have a target donation amount, and can be completed within a relatively short period.\u00a0 We believe there are members who have the capacity and desire to donate to the club as part of their overall donations to charities and other non-profits.\u00a0 These donations could be once off by a member, yearly amounts or even bequests within a will.<\/p>\n<p>We will initially establish the Fund as follows:<\/p>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0 Over-arching fund \u2013 <strong>MVGC Foundation<\/strong> (general account for donations which can be used for any area of course\/clubhouse expenditure)<\/p>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0 Sub Project 1 \u2013 <strong>Course Beautification<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To provide for a set of enhancements to add flair to the view of the course from the clubhouse and while playing and also giving a facelift to the Club entrances.\u00a0 These are improvements that we cannot fund from existing membership fees or grants.\u00a0 Target contributions &#8211; TBD<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fountain(s)<\/li>\n<li>Lighting enhancement around trees, etc<\/li>\n<li>Brush Fence around material pits near maintenance sheds<\/li>\n<li>Front entrance landscaping, signage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>o\u00a0\u00a0 Sub Project 2 \u2013 <strong>Enhanced Course Practice Facilities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To provide for specific course enhancements to enlarge the Main Practice Green and upgrade 11A.
