The STS Development Task Force will:
• Develop a fundraising workflow that can incorporate multiple individuals, or relevant members from other STS committees (e.g., Membership, Publications) in the fundraising and reporting process
• Engage in fundraising activities with vendors, publishers, or other relevant organizations for identified STS budgetary needs
• Work with the STS Executive Committee to prioritize areas of fundraising focus that reflect STS values of equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility
• Establish a communication plan to work with vendors to raise funds based on STS priorities
• Create MOU and other documentation templates for use with vendors, e.g., to clarify agreements about services received, funding acknowledgements, and what restrictions should be placed on solicited or offered funds
• Create a documentation system with donor and budget information that can be shared with and accessed by the Development Task Force as well as the STS Executive Committee
• Propose a structure for the transition to an STS Development Committee, including whether any potential STS Executive members should be standing members of the Development Committee.
