The President’s Report Fall 2024
You asked for it and we delivered. Electronic payment is now available through our Alumnae website allowing members to submit their remittance via credit card or PayPal for dues and the luncheon. This electronic format will charge a service fee ($1.75 per $50 for PayPal/Credit Cards and $2.15 for American Express) for this convenience.
To access the electronic payment option, open the PAYMENTS tab on our website at stvincentsschoolofnursingalums.org. Complete the form with your demographics and your payment will forward to the Association bank account. We understand that not everyone is comfortable with technology, so we will continue to offer the option to complete any financial transactions via conventional means by the due's envelope or luncheon application, and/or submitting your fee via paper check through the USPS to Pat Costello.
In another measure to ensure timely announcements, the Board is in the process of initiating a listserv through your email address. It will be important to make sure we have your current email information to be able to provide you with this free communication service. We will continue to send postcard mailings for general meetings, St. Patrick’s Day Parade details, and any other pertinent announcements. The goal is to get our members valuable information in a timelier manner without completely relying on ‘snail mail', especially for alumni who are not on Facebook. You will be able to opt out of this service at any time if this is not suitable for your needs. Your email info can be sent to Pat Costello at pcostellosvh@gmail.com.
