Y; M. c. A. Financial Needs ; And Obiecfives Explained in connection with the annual financial campaign of the Y.M.C. A.. Mr. Ben E. Rogers. Manager of the Bank of Montreal and Chair- man of the Campaign Commit- icc. in an interview yesterday sta- ted iliat contributions already re- ceived are highly encouraging. Mr. Rogers stated that the cam-1 palglil this year is more than the u..,;il cue. in that the Be; if Directors is determined to put the ”Y' on a sound financial basis and meet the responsibility of staffing it with additional trained help to l;-' irc ii" the i-oiitinuuliy ex- panding participation of youth in the 'Y and its facilities and to tackle in earnest the retirement of the capital debt which is the h,.Ijg''l'0 - tiir ."'st W .lu- ncw building erected in 1947. The debt now stands at 549,700. pitnPQsE t lir Rogers cxplaiiicii that the minimum objective of Sl5.000 viould be used as follows: on on mortgage and temporary loans. 33.000: annual principal payment on mortgage, 33.000: Op- erating annual deficit and capital expenditures on building and e- quipment. S9.000.00. When asked the reason for the annual deficit, Mr. Rogers ex- plained that "The Charlottetown Y" like all others was designed to serve youth through providing programs for their mental. spiri-I tual and physical development and thc tact that upwards 0 500 boys and girls under the age 18 take part in the weekly activities in addition to several hundred young adults, is evidence that our iY' Ix going a long way toward ful- filling its purpose." "it was never tlic intciition." said Mr. Rogers. "that a 'Y' should be entirely self-supporting by fces cnllecled from our children. in fact no child is kept out of the 'Y' for financial reasons The pol- icy has been to encourage all chil-l drcn to take advantage of the mental. physical and spiritual training provided by qualified lcadcrs." "The Directors feel and i think all citizens will agree." said Mr. Rogers. "that a contribution to the iY' is an investment in our young people of I957 whom we shall expect to provide the leader- ship in church. community and husincss affairs In the years to come" MANAGEMENT In answer to the question of: "Who manages the 'Y'?" Mr. Rog- lnter- 1 MR. 3- E. ROGERS ers stated that a Board of Direc- tors of citizens elected at the an- .nual meetings handles the affair: land a Secretary who has taken special training is employed to carry out the training problems. He is assisted by a group of volun- tcer loaders who assist the indiv- iidual groups in setting up their .programs and carrying out their jiictivities. When queried as to the future iif the Charlottetown iii”. Mr. Rog- .ers stated that it is 'very promis- ing.” ”The directors with the help lof our citizens is going to cndeav-, lor to repay the mortgage indebt- 'edness as quickly as possible in order to relieve our citizens of the annual outlay of at present almost 36.00000. 1 Energetic efforts will continue jto increse the membership In as to utilize fully the facilities pro- vided in the ' 4” building e- rected in 1947. This will necessitate additional trained staff. the cost of which will be partially offset by increas- ed revenue from sources such an membership fees, bowling alleys. billiards. etc. When the proper staff set-up has been effected. there is no doubt lliiat a ciinccrtcil c fort wii' debt and then consider improve- imcnts necessary to keep our iY' up-toqlate and meet its ever ichanginiz needs." l "The ti" belongs to the people." said Mr. Rogers and we believe that realizing that fact. they will respond accordingly."
