3. We need to collect the balance and have the treasurer prepare a certificate of funds available as a requirement for SEC registration. The need to generate funds for FORSOAR was raised by Richard. Our treasurer, Rene, will submit a financial report and provide his bank details so we can receive donations in the meantime that we are formally organizing.

4. One project raised to support the fund raising effort is a series of Dinners for a Cause. These can be prepared by Chef Ariel Castillo and his students at SSCR. Tentative dates are Sept 18 and Oct 16. Felix and Tony will spearhead this project. FORSOAR members are encouraged to bring at least 2 other patrons to the Dinners for a Cause.

5. Other fund raising ideas were offered:
a. Sale of paintings by prisoners of Muntinlupa c/o Richard
b. Sale of candles made by wives of prisoners c/o Rene
c. Set up copying machines in Recollect schools with 30% of proceeds going to FORSOAR projects c/o Rene
