EXCELLENT Club Resources - Part 1 of 2
Aug-12-2024 |
|
I just came across these web pages for these 6 critical positions in a Lions Club from President to Marketing Chairperson. Each page is the essential resource for each of these positions and includes a link to the e-book to show each office their roles and responsibilities. I've also attached the e-books to this email.
I added the base standard club constitution and by-laws, service journey map, financial transparency guide, and club structure chart, too.
Please do get thee to all our clubs and club officers through all of our various channels. Great resources here for everyone!!

Updates from Cabinet Treasurer PDG Bird
New IRS Requirements for Filing
First, I want to thank the 40 club Treasurers that have paid their District 1-BK and MD-1 1st half dues invoices as of August 20, 2022. Your prompt payment helps the district’s cash flow for our current budget. Keep up the good work!
The IRS has changed the requirements for non-profits to file forms 990 or 990EZ for the 2021-2022 fiscal year that are due by November 15, 2022. The IRS will no longer accept paper forms mailed to them – all income tax forms MUST be filed electronically.
To file IRS forms electronically, they must be submitted in a special coding system that is only available to accountants who are “licensed” by the IRS to use this special coding system. This means Lions clubs, districts and multiple districts must hire an accountant that has access to the special coding system to file your taxes. Tax forms that are filed using paper forms will not be accepted and your club or district may be fined by the IRS for being late.
I talked to an accountant for District 1-BK to file our tax forms electronically and he told me I could either have him fill out all the forms for us and file them electronically or I could fill out the forms and then he would retype all the forms and file them electronically. I am choosing the latter format to save District 1-BK some money. I don’t know what the fee is to have an accountant only retype the forms a person gives to them and file them electronically. The accountant I talked to is a friend of mine and he will retype the forms and file them electronically for District 1-BK at no charge. It’s nice to have friends that are willing to help a non-profit organization with their tax forms.
