FREE 1st CPA meeting for new Sellwood businesses

FREE 1st CPA meeting for new Sellwood businesses

Monday the 15th of February, 2010
I offer a free 1st meeting to all local small businesses.

I've spent 20 years advising PDX clients, so I've heard all of the questions & can help?

Should I be incorporated? What can I really deduct? What kind of records must I keep? How do I pay myself? Do I need to pay quarterlies? Do I need a City license? What are Trimet taxes? 1099's? Personal property taxes? Auto mileage rates? How do I use Quickbooks?

Just give me a call at 503-287-5584 to schedule a time for your free meeting.

See my website for a complete description of my business - it was written & programmed entirely by me. My niche is providing one-on-one personal service directly to business owners.

While the third and second grade parents are responsible for managing this event, all parents and parishioners
are extremely valuable and critical to the success of this auction. How does St. Agatha measure success? The
auction team's primary initiative is to reach a monetary goal set by the Finance Committee. However, it is more than just fund raising. It is about "friend raising". We want all those involved with St. Agatha Catholic School and Parish, whether as a parent, grandparent, parishioner, or neighbor to experience this community-building activity as time to get to know one another and ultimately have fun.

Auction revenue contributes to 82% of the operating budget which covers:

1. Tuition Assistance
2. Building and Plant Maintenance
3. Curriculum/Instruction needs
4. Payroll and Personnel Expenses

The St. Agatha Catholic School Community can participate in the following ways:

1. Procure or donate items by March 1st.

2. Participate in the Raffle! $2500 towards Scrip, vacations or tuition to any Catholic school in the United
States.

3. Join us at the auction!

Thank you!
