EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT FORMS for the current Rotary year are available for download by selecting the form above.  Instructions are on the form.  Please be sure to submit legible copies of the form.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FROM RI regarding IRS ruling:  Did you know that many years ago the IRS ruled that Rotary Clubs are not "charitable" organizations even though they qualify as non-profits?  As a result, any checks made out to Rotary Clubs (District also) for dues, donations, fundraisers, etc. are NOT normally eligible for income tax deductions.  Now, the district and many clubs MUST include a disclosure statement on all invoices for dues and on fundraising brochures.  Read the full notice from Rotary International for details.  Donations to properly established and maintained Charitable Foundations DO qualify for the exemption.
