Donation Policy and Request

 

Chapter 267 Policy on Donations

The Chapter Board and the Chapter members have established a policy for requesting donations.

Donations are categorized as either standard or repetitive.  Standard donations are those made during the course of a Chapter meeting by the members; whereas repetitive donations are reoccurring (yearly basis) events that are sponsored by the Chapter.

The Chapter Standard Donation Form:

·         Is used for dollar values from $50 to $250.

·         Provides some assurance that the individual involved is truly in need of temporary assistance.

·         Documents efforts to obtain assistance elsewhere.

The Chapter Repetitive Donation Form:

·         Is used for dollar values from $300 to $600.

·         Chapter Sponsored Events Form is used for dollar values from $300 to $600.

·         Identifies both repetitive and holiday donations.

Donation Limitations

Donations that exceed the $250 limitation as described in the Chapter’s By-laws must be brought before the Board.

Repetitive donations and events sponsored by the Chapter sponsored events that exceed the $250 limitation as described in the Chapter’s By-laws do not have to be presented to the Board prior to a motion being made to the Members.

Individual donations have a $1,000 maximum amount the individual can receive from the Chapter.  However, individuals who require assistance beyond the $1,000 limitation may appeal to the Board that they are under a special circumstance and may be granted additional funds.  Approval of additional funds under a special circumstance requires a majority vote of both the Board and the members present and voting to be approved.

The maximum amount an organization can receive from the Chapter is $2,500.  However organizations may be granted additional funds.  Approval of additional funds requires a majority vote of both the Board and the members present and voting.
