Are you a detail oriented person? Love making your checkbook balance? Want to serve this community of yogis?

The panj (Kundalini Yoga Portland's board of directors) is in need of a treasurer. Being on the panj is a great way to get to know others in the community! When you serve in this capacity you are never alone - this is the Aquarian Age! - Siri Singh will train the next treasurer (see his note at the end of this post).

Nominations for treasurer are now being accepted. Please read the position description below & feel free to nominate yourself or someone else. Send any nominations to satnam@kypdx.org by April 12.

Panj Treasurer Position Description
Qualifications:
  • Integrity.  This money belongs to the community and is entrusted to the treasurer to keep track of it.

  • Good computer skills.
  • Can you balance a complex checkbook and do your own taxes?
  • Passion for the Kundalini Yoga community & the teachings of Yogi Bhajan.

Responsibilities:
  • Manage/monitor the community's money. This money comes from member's dues, workshop income, donations, EFT, Paypal accounts and is kept in a checking account.  The checking and paypal accounts are owned by Kundalini Yoga Portland.  As Treasurer you can open/close accounts and write checks as needed.  These transactions are recorded in a ledger.  
  • Write checks as needed. 
  • Make regular deposits of check and cash in the bank account. Transfer monies from Paypal account into bank account. 
  • Prepare and file State and Federal taxes.
  • File annual 501C3 status forms.

  • 2 trips to the bank per month to deposit cash and checks. 
  • Tax prep will take a several hours once a year. 
  • 2 hours per month for Panj meetings

A note from Siri: 
Being the Treasurer for the last two years has been a demanding, yet rewarding position for me.  It has been a honor to serve the Community and help it grow.  At this time I feel my enthusiasm waining and it is time for me to step aside and make space for a new Treasurer.  I plan on continuing to manage and teach at Awakenings, so the new Treasurer will not be responsible for this.  I will be available to train the new Treasurer for as long as needed... review the books and accounts, help with taxes next year, etc.  
Many Blessings,
Siri Singh

Last week 10 yogis converged (Kundalini Convergence) to meet new and familiar faces. Many thanks to Hipsia Keister for hosting this event. We did a fun, short yoga set (thanks Akal Dev!) laughed & shared ideas.  For example, we hope to have a wellness/yoga day of healing to raise needed funds (stay tuned!)

Several folks had good intentions of showing up but were unable to. We want you to know that you were missed and we want to hear from you! Please take a few minutes to fill out the survey so we can better serve you! Interested in having a list of Kundalini Yoga teachers that could sub for you? Fill out that survey please!

We realize that all of the Kundalini Yoga classes that we are aware of are in SE Portland. If you know of classes elsewhere  tell us. We can't grow without your help! So get on over to that survey and tell us where you are and what ideas you have for getting Kundalini classes to a space near you or other ideas for building community! Keep your eyes, ears and hearts open for opportunities! In the meantime, let's continue to get together - brainstorming is so much more fun in a group of happy shiny yogis!

Would you like to hold a Kundalini Convergence in your part of town? Let us know! Email satnam@kypdx.org and we'll help you get the ball rolling.
