Note: this budget projection is always prepared in December of the preceding year. It is based on expected (hoped for!) donations to support our work, so it is adjusted during the year if the level of donations is higher or lower than expected. In 2012 we spent over $15,000, below our projected level but well above other years. Most of the difference was in the testing program, where we hope to put more emphasis.

Here is a description of the program these funds will support.
