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.

BHSI's actual expenditures for calendar year 2012 were $15,188.50. That was a record year for us, the most we had ever spent. The higher level of expenditures supported our testing program. We think the results were worth it.

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