The AA Capital District Central Office greatly appreciates all the support local groups and individuals are providing and have provided in the past.
BUT NOW WE NEED YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS!
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, many AA members have lost their jobs and many AA groups that are meeting online are not receiving the income in contributions that they did when meeting in person. As a result, contributions to the GSO, the Area, the Districts, and the Central Office have fallen off sharply.
For example, In August 2020, the Capital District Central Office fell $503.00 short of the bills it had to pay for the month. The Office has been “in the red” 5 of the past 6 months. It pays $602 per month just for rent.
To those AA individuals and AA groups that are still blessed with good income, please consider making a contribution if you can. Only AA members and AA groups can contribute to AA.
Thank you

“Expenses continue to accumulate during this (COVID) crisis . . .Intergroup/Central Offices are still stocking needed literature and fielding Twelfth Step calls, redirecting AA members and those looking for recovery to online meetings.” Letter from the General Service Office of AA, June 19, 2020.
