Covina Womans Club

“Members come from the local community on a voluntary basis with no prerequisites other than the desire to volunteer with other members to support the needs of the community.”

“Members elect the board of directors and the officers who meet with the board. Committee chairpersons are appointed. The board meets monthly to make decisions and monitor the work of the committees. Members are informed at the monthly general meetings and via the newsletter.”

“Major organization decisions (e.g. Changes in bylaws and/or policies affecting the members) are subject to membership approval. Other decisions are made solely by the board.”

“The committees report to the board and at that time their actions are documented.”

“The treasurer is given the responsibility of reviewing tax forms, including form 990.”

“Detailed schedules of disbursements and total deposits are presented by the treasurer to the board on a monthly basis. Financial statements are presented to the board upon request. All such reports and statements are available for review by any member upon request. The by-laws and standing rules are published in the annual yearbook/directory.”

“ROUNDING ADJUSTMENT”

In addition to volunteer services, the Covina Womans club contributes financial support to various other non-profit organizations that serve vulnerable groups (Veterans, Domestic Violence Victims). Additionally, the facility owed by the organization is made available to other groups and citizens of the community at below market rates, further enhancing community welfare.”
