<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">My impression is that Tatiana, Ayden and Renata are all very active and need to be encouraged and rewarded with some support, but do not require the full $2000.
In Renata’s case, if indeed she can’t come if we don’t provide the full, requested $938, then I would support exceeding the budget by $438 to make it possible. Because she seems to be someone who will become a very strong contributor.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the statements and activity of James and Sonigitu. So I went with them. If $1000 is not enough to bring James Gitau to the meeting, we could increase the allocations to Renata and Sonigitu as needed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
