Improvement Ideas

When the admin changes a month from X|P to Y, he is then directed to a page where he has the option to enter in the amount that was donated and a comment. The application then sends a thank you email (CC'ed to the treasurer account) to the member that references the donated amount. If the admin opted to populate the comment field, it would show up as a "PS:" at the bottom of the letter. These letters (currently manually sent by the treasurer) can be used as IRS donation receipts.
