AWARDS & REPORTS


INTRODUCTION

EVERY MEMBER OF SERTOMA IS A PRICELESS ASSET!

Sertoma’s “Incentives & Recognition Program” is designed to recognize outstanding performance in community service, individual achievement, effective leadership performance and collective efforts by Sertomans and Sertoma clubs.

The club secretary is responsible for the success of the Incentives & Recognition Program provided for clubs and for individual members. Thus, club presidents must provide adequate support to the secretary to ensure timeliness in reporting, as well as accuracy.

To better manage and evaluate the effectiveness of each, Sertoma Sponsorships are monitored at Sertoma Headquarters. Concise information is needed. Awards and reporting forms have been modified for easier reporting.

Each award notification must be received at Sertoma Headquarters by the date established by the Board in the award guidelines. The Headquarters staff will administer all awards, including Service To Mankind, Sertoman of the Year, and any other awards so designated by the Sertoma President.

Recognition is effective in direct proportion to the time it takes to recognize achievement. It is important that award requests be expeditiously forwarded to Sertoma Headquarters. Your Headquarters staff will forward official incentives to the next higher level of leadership for presentation. Sertoma leaders must present these awards with the dignity they deserve. This will create a lasting remembrance for a “job well done.”

Following is some basic Sertoma information necessary to complete several reports and forms:

Fiscal Year: The Sertoma fiscal year is July 1 through June 30.
Official Membership: The official membership count for the fiscal year is determined by the members listed on the club's roster as of July 1. Clubs need to notify Sertoma Headquarters as soon as a membership change occurs.
Sertoma Sponsorships: The Sertoma sponsorships include:
  • Speech and Hearing Services
  • National Heritage Program
  • Service to Mankind Program
  • Youth Sponsorships
  • Sertoma Foundation


New Members: A new member is an individual who has not been a member of Sertoma for the past 90 days or longer. A $20 processing fee will be assessed to the club for each new member. This fee includes the cost of the New Member Kit.

Your Sertoma Headquarters staff is always available to assist you with any questions you may have concerning awards or reports.
