Maintenance of your Rotary club account -
17/08/2007
The Finance Department of Rotary International
Europe and Africa would like to emphasize a few points that could
have a huge impact in the maintenance of your club account. We
would deeply appreciate it if you and your Treasurer could carefully
read the following and make sure that each point below has been
attended to. This will prevent inconveniences for your club and
for RI, and will allow RI to use its resources in a more efficient
way.
For your information, clubs that will not have fulfilled their
financial obligations by the 30/09/2007 will receive a reminder
letter from Evanston.
1. HAVE YOU RECEIVED
THE SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT?
IF NOT, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR FINANCIAL REPRESENTATIVE AT RI IMMEDIATELY
All secretaries of Rotary clubs should receive the SAR each January
and July. The invoice should be transmitted to the Treasurer. If
nothing is received by the end of these months, please contact
our Office to request a copy.
2. HAVE YOU INFORMED YOUR EUROPE AND AFRICA
OFFICE OF THE CHANGES REGARDING YOUR PRESIDENT/SECRETARY AND/OR
THEIR ADDRESSES?
Since the SAR is sent to the Club Secretary it is very important
that the RI database is updated. One of the main reasons clubs
do not get the SAR is because they do not communicate these changes.
3. HAVE YOU RETURNED YOUR UPDATED
MEMBERSHIP LIST?
It is very important to return your club's membership list
with the changes (if any) as without it, no adjustment can
be made to
the club account. Therefore, the difference of more/less members
will be shown as a credit or debit until the adjustment is made.
4. ARE YOU USING THE PROPER ACCOUNT
TO REMIT YOUR PAYMENTS?
Separate account for RI and TRF payments
now exist for most districts. Please revert to the bank instructions
sheet that
has been provided
to your club. If you don’t have these bank instructions,
our Department will gladly provide you with a copy.
Be assured that for any assistance
you may need, your contact person at the Finance Department in
our RI Europe & Africa
Office will be very pleased to help you.
