For those that attempted to use Zoom to join the October board meeting tonight we are sorry for the inconvenience.  There was no one at the Milton City Hall building to let us in.  We will check tomorrow to see what the issue is.  We tried to start the Zoom meeting from the parking lot, but were not able to connect to the internet.  The only people present were four of the board members and two other people from the public.  There also appeared to be three people joining by Zoom.  

You may have noticed that we now have an agenda page on the website.  We are also working on other updates to the website.

We have completed and submitted to the IRS our application for non-profit status.  It will take 1 to 6 months to hear back from them.

The biggest advantage of nonprofit status is tax-exempt status, or more accurately, the exemption from some state and federal income tax and other taxes.  Getting certification from the IRS on our 501(c)(13) status will also allow us to benefit from tax-deductible contribution rules, which encourage donations.

Nonprofits may get discounts on many things, including valuable products and services from large companies that want to give back. They can also accept donations from individuals who want to help via fundraising activities, as well as pursue grants from foundations and government agencies. This financial assistance makes it easier to make ends meet and create a positive impact on the operation and continued maintenance of the cemetery.
