Intergroup Financials Update

At the end of 2022, San Francisco and Marin Intergroup shared that it was projecting a budget deficit, and the Fellowship stepped up in a huge way. Increases in group contributions, Gratitude Month contributions and contributions from individual A.A. members made a difference. Intergroup is now back on track financially for 2023. Please read Intergroup’s letter of gratitude and share with your groups.
