[Chapter-delegates] New Chapter Admin Funding Program

[Leah Symekher]

Hello All:

As an active member I watched the Founders and the Board of the SFBay 
Area ISOC Chapter struggle for funding since 2008 to keep our Chapter 
operational and active as did subsequent leadership me included..so its 
been a long journey to get here for us and many Chapters.  Much to 
celebrate and appreciate :-)!

Thank you to all who made this initiative a reality for ISOC Chapters.

Regards,
Leah Symekher
SFBay Area ISOC Chapter, President/Chair
