Club Contribution Process
In 2005, the White Bear Lake Lions Club
started distributing a dictionary to 3rd grade students in school district 624. Now in 2007, the White
Bear Lake Lions Club has started to distribute a thesaurus to 5th grade
students
in the same school district. Read more about it here.
All requests for contributions must be reviewed by a Contributions
Review Committee, and must be submitted in writing. Certain guidelines must be followed
to even be considered. Some are required by law, others are set by the club.
The committee meets at least once a month to review every request to:
a) determine the validity,
b) suggest the amount to be given, and
c) which fund, gambling or activity, from which the money will be taken.
The committee reports to the Board of Directors at the monthly Board Meeting where the
Board reviews every request and presents their suggestions. The ultimate approval of
the request and the amount lies with the Board.
