Remember: “Finances, audits, and budgets are not bad things!”

By now each unit hopefully has their books audited and their 990 completed and filed. The next step is to complete your budgets and send moneys to the receiving organizations.  

The information for donations is on the last six pages of the September Unit Mailing from Department and these mailings are on the mnala.org website. These pages also have information on how to make checks out when money comes from gambling funds. If a unit is donating to a program not listed like Silver Bay Veterans Home or Eagles Healing Nest, those checks should be made out to those programs and not sent through the Department. The Department also has a memorial donation page for units to send money in memory of members. You can always call the Department Office and ask them how the checks should be made out or where to send them if you are not sure.  That number is: 651-224-7634.

If you have any questions, please call me at 218-549-3614 or email relvecr-og@frontiernet.net
