Developments for the Year 2012

 

1. Building Fund. A trust has been established which will form the shares of ARAIA in the overall development of a charitable Institution or Building for the community.

The Governing Council continues to explore State & Federal Governments on the release of properties\funds and the formation of the Trust by shares from the community in the eventual building of an Institution. The target envisaged would be 3 Million dollars for such a venture.

The Treasurer & Assistant Secretary of the Council have opened a Trust Fund with an appropriate deposit relative to the existing funds available .

Branch Profits derived from Charity\Local Functions to ensure that 50% of profits are earmarked for the Trust Funds.

Donations of $1000/- from 1000 Anglo-Indians, Sponsors, Patrons & supporters, benefactors and well wishers to form the nucleus of One Million as the starter Fund.

 

2. Branches: Council members to explore the formation of branches around the Sydney metropolis and State. The Main Sydney branch will be attached to the General Council.

The reason is in large measures to induct more active members in order to reach out to larger numbers of the community.
