This budget represents the NYBC Master Plan for the renovation and expansion of 332 Riverside Drive. Our goal is to raise $1.69 million over the next five years. The Board decided to conduct a capital campaign that does not destabilize the general operations of the Church. It plans to be prudent and not incur debt; therefore, the project will move forward in three separate stages. As funds are raised, each stage will be completed.
The most immediate goal is challenging, but we hope achievable: to raise $397,900 by the end of 2008 for Stage 1. This will complete the renovation of the hondo, the installation $230,000 in cash. The next two stages of expansion are projected to take place over a four-year period concluding in 2012. We are exploring how to incorporate "green standards" to provide environmentally safe and efficient conditions for NYBC.
