One purpose of the Fairfax Inter-Service Club Council (ISCC) is to share information about service club operations. At the Feb 4th ISCC meeting, Lion Treasurer Mike Rumberg gave a great talk about technology useful for service club financials.
Lion Mike spoke about the evolution (and pros & cons) in Fairfax Lions Club financials:
- From entirely manual pen and paper Club records, mailing member invoices with members mailing payment checks, and all manual recording of cash/check charity sales;
- To EXCEL electronic data records;
- To QUICKBOOKS for all Club financials for both charity and admin accounts, to invoice members, and to generate tax reports;
- To SQUARE for charity fund raising sales (using SQUARE hardware to accept customer credit card payments, in person or on-line);
- And finally, to our current progress using ZEFFY
Fairfax Lions Club is one of the largest service organizations in Northern Virginia. Our members are from all walks of life, we give back to our community in many ways, and we have a good time doing it! We welcome you!
