GOD'S 1000 CLUB 1. Originally, in order to raise needed funds for the ILDA Mission Projects, operating expenses and to continue with the ILDA's supporting status, the ILDA God's 1,000 Club was proposed by Rev. Herbert Rohe, former Secretary for Deaf Ministry. The goal was for 1,000 ILDA members to donate $10.00 per year, raising $10,000. This information should be printed periodically in The Deaf Lutheran.
2. The guidelines are:
a. All ILDA members are encourage to contribute $20.00 every two years (plus dues) and those doing so will automatically receive biennial a special membership card, one special lapel pin and be eligible to attend the God's 1,000 Club meetings. Their names will be on a list at the biennial conventions.
b. The ILDA God's 1,000 Club will have a special informative meeting (a luncheon) at all biennial conventions.
c. A chairman will be appointed by the ILDA president to oversee the God's 1,000 Club. This chairman will coordinate publicity, keep a current list of membership, and give lapel pins at the ILDA convention registration table.
d. All receipts from contributions and pledges shall be sent to the ILDA treasurer and deposited into the God's 1,000 Club account.
e. The ILDA God's 1,000 Club funds shall be used to help finance the ILDA's Board of Directors meetings. These meetings are limited to twice a year (when necessary) or when there is an emergency or crisis.
