Prot. 13/0598
To the participants in the GC27:
Provincials, Delegates and Invitees,
at their respective addresses
Subject: Fees for participating in the GC27
Dear participants,
I am writing to you in connection with the fees for participating in the GC27.
After carrying out an assessment of the total expenses involved in organizing the GC27, we have decided that the total cost for each participant will be Euro 3.000. This amount is to be paid also by those who have been invited.
The payment is to be made by the 1st of December 2013, by sending the money directly to the Economer General’s Office through a bank transfer, specifying the reason as: “participation in the GC27” and adding the “Province’s code”.
The bank accounts to be used are:
For a transfer in Euros:
BENEFICIARY DIREZIONE GENERALE OPERE DON BOSCO
BANK BANCA POPOLARE DI SONDRIO
AGENCY AGENZIA N.2 ROMA
IBAN IT54 O 05696 03202 000004655X77
BIC/SWIFT POSOIT22
For a transfer in US dollars:
BENEFICIARY DIREZIONE GENERALE OPERE DON BOSCO
BANK BANCA POPOLARE DI SONDRIO
AGENCY AGENZIA N.2 ROMA
IBAN IT09 L 05696 03202 VARUS0004655
BIC/SWIFT POSOIT22
If it is not possible to effect a bank transfer, an official request authorized by the Provincial or the Provincial Economer may be sent, by the above-mentioned date, stating that the amount required to pay the fees for participating in the GC27 can be taken from the Province’s account in the Office of the Economer General, provided that the necessary funds are available.
Those who cannot avail themselves of these two possibilities can, on arrival, pay the stated amount to the Economer General’s Office.
In a spirit of solidarity I would suggest to those Provinces that have the financial means to send to the Rector Major, through the Economer General’s Office, an offering in cash to be used for defraying the Chapter expenses of the Provinces that are in difficulty.
I greet you cordially in Don Bosco.
Br. Jean Paul Muller
Economer General
