What Are Some Financial Best Practices with Grant Funds?
Follow your spending plan to promptly distribute and use grant funds for the stated purpose.
Make project-related expenditures by check or another traceable method.
If payments are made electronically by one person, maintain a paper trail showing that both signatories approved the payment.
Maintain detailed receipts and record each transaction in a ledger. The ledger should list each transaction, noting the date, amount, and reason for the transaction.
Make sure to share the information so grants run smoothly and funds are secure.
Thank you for making our grant oversight of the highest quality.
February is Peace and Conflict Prevention/Resolution Month.

Thank you to everyone who reached out at any point in time over the last few months to provide valued feedback, opinions, and support. It has been so wonderful to get to know many of you and gain a better understanding of what Rotary means to you as individuals and what our club can provide you with!
