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.
 
What have you been up to in February? My fellowship challenge to you all is to share one update this month with all of us. You can send pictures and updates to Secretary Chris or connect with us here on our Facebook group to share or log on this Tuesday for our social meeting!

On February 23rd Rotary will be turning 117! Zones 28 & 32 will be ringing in the big day with its second online celebration, featuring some exciting guests (including President-Elect Jennifer Jones) sure to be an entertaining night. Click here to see a video about the Zone Fundraising Gala, titled "Celebrating Our Foundation"!
 
The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee's February meeting will take place tomorrow at 7 pm EDT. Click here to connect on Zoom!
 
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!
 
Have a great week and see you on Tuesday for our monthly business meeting,
 
Maddie
From the President-Elect
 
Looking forward to a good discussion on Tuesday. See you then ...
