As I proposed the $500 donation to the 3Y0J DXpedition at Thursday's club Zoom 
meeting I did say that we might have discussion over the amount.  I expected 
some and wasn't proposing to railroad this through.  I am a firm believer is 
supporting deserving expeditions and in fact have made a generous personal 
donation already.  That said, I think the membership should have final say so 
and I'm not sure that was achieved at the meeting. Maybe I'm wrong and we are 
good to go.  If were are FB.

Regardless, upon reflection, when we make the donation I think we should do it 
as SADXA directly to the expedition and NOT through NCDXF.  NCDXF has already 
donated $100K (some of that our prior donation) and I doubt they will up it by 
our new donation and/or give us mention for it.  Our direct donation would get 
our logo on the expedition website and gives us deserved recognition.  The 
downside is it opens us up for requests from future beggars but we can deal with 
them when the time comes.

What say?
