MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH:
Terry Eubank, City Manager
FROM:
Kathy Romain, Senior Center Director
DATE:
January 9, 2024
SUBJECT:
Ordinance 3389-2024 Senior Center Donation
Kenai Senior Connection, Inc. (Connection), as part of its ongoing fundraising for the Senior
Center, utilizes licensed gaming for raffles sanctioned by the State of Alaska. Funds generated
through this gaming activity must be expended by the conclusion of each year.
As the gaming account held a remaining balance of $2,850 in December, the Connection Board
unanimously decided to contribute these funds to the Senior Center for specific needs that fall
outside of the current budget. The Senior Center intends to allocate the donation towards
acquiring a new smart television for the dining room and addressing additional printing
expenditures.
We extend our sincere appreciation to the Connection for their relentless fundraising endeavors
in support of the Kenai Senior Center. The commitment displayed by this group is immeasurable
and serves as a genuine testament to the well-being of the seniors within our community.
Thank you for your consideration.
