22.0 Everyday Supplies

DOVEs are responsible for keeping everyday supplies on hand for volunteer use. Examples are things like dish soap, laundry soap, paper towels, over-the-counter medicines for treating common ailments, heating gas, water jugs, etc.

Personal hygiene costs (body wash, shampoo, feminine hygiene, etc) are the responsibility of the volunteer.

22.1 Large Expenses

If there is a larger expense that needs to be purchased, for example a large amount of new pillows, towels, etc, then the purchase must be approved. The purchase must be uploaded into the OSSO House Supplies, Repairs and Maintenance sheet.

The approval request must be written into the spreadsheet, within the correct month, with all relevant columns filled out. The notes within the spreadsheet are important and must be followed in order to successfully submit the request. Notes are found in cells with a small black triangle in the top right corner.
