The CommitteeIn 2001, a group of community members noted that the Flat Top Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery might benefit from additional preservation and maintenance efforts. After four years, the official Cemetery Trust Fund Committee, consisting of seventeen members, came into being. On January 1, 2005, the trust agreement was signed (the trust fund did not become exempt from taxes until 2008).
The Trust Fund Committee have ensured that the efforts will last for generations by only using the interest on revenues to maintain the cemetery that has over 500 gravesites. All funds are managed by the Committee, with Trustees overseeing major financial decisions. The Trust is a 501(c)13 charitable organization with tax exempt status and donations to the fund are tax deductible. The Trust is not a part of Flat Top Primitive Baptist Church. The Trust was created as a separate entity but works with the church to insure that the church cemetery grounds are maintained. |
