“Grow with JWC”

CLUB YEARBOOK 2016-2017

YEARBOOK DEDICATION 2016-2017

One of the things I admire most about my mom is

her heart for others, she lives the volunteer spirit

we talk about in the club. Although she has been

through plenty in her own life, she is always there

with a listening ear and wanting to know what she

can do to help someone else. When we first

moved from Texas to North Carolina in 1996, my

mom reassured our family that you bloom where

you are planted. This piece of advice has always

stuck with me whether I moved to a new town,

started a new job or joined a community

organization. I dedicate the upcoming club year to

my mom, Judy, and hope that she will inspire us

all to live out the volunteer spirit and bloom in this

community and organization where we have been

planted.

Dear Juniors,

I am honored to serve as the club president for the 2016-17 club year. I am very fortunate and excited to work alongside a group of dedicated leaders as we improve our community for the generations to come. One of the things I enjoy most is gardening. Gardening has

many different phases and requires continuous work. First, is

the planning phase where you pick out what you’re going to

plant and then research what those plants need. Next, you

invest in some seeds. Then, you are actually in the dirt

planting the seeds and maintaining the garden. Finally, you

get to the harvest where you have a garden full of beautiful

flowers or food to feed yourself and others. In many ways

our club year and the Junior Woman’s Club is like a garden.

Over the summer we start planning for the next club year.

We pick leaders, hold meetings and pick out projects that we

want to do. Then, from September through May we are

active in our communities carrying out those projects we

planned, interviewing scholarship candidates and

participating in fund development projects that allow our club

to continue to operate and make an impact in our community.

Throughout the year, we also require maintenance like board

meetings, bylaw revisions and strategic planning. Finally, at

the annual meeting we get to see our harvest and celebrate

the impact we’ve made on our community. The theme I am

presenting to you for the upcoming club year is “Grow with

JWC”.

How can we grow?

Strengthening our ties with community partners

Engaging our clubwomen with projects and leadership

5

opportunities

Reaching out to our community to increase our membership

Increasing our visibility in the community

Reviewing our financial procedures and strategic plan ensuring

the future of JWC of Raleigh

Another way we can grow is to look for new organizations to partner with. Currently there are hundreds of families with loved ones with Down Syndrome in Wake County. While there are support groups and therapy programs, there has a yet to be a center in North Carolina where direct educational, therapeutic and career building programs are offered to individuals of all ages with Down Syndrome. Gigi’s Playhouse, a Down Syndrome Achievement Center, opened in June 2016 in Raleigh. Their custom, research-based curriculum works towards advancing literacy, math skills, gross and fine motor skills, improving low muscle tone, building self-esteem, preparing for the workforce, and so much more. They do all of this while fostering acceptance, awareness and networking for parents, siblings, and the community. Gigi’s Playhouse is determined that cost will not be a barrier to anyone’s achievement! I am pleased to announce that the 2016-2017 president’s project will be Gigi’s Playhouse. Above all else, I hope each clubwoman will continue to grow over the next club year. Maybe that means stepping out of their comfort zone to take on a leadership position, finding an organization you are passionate about or growing bonds with other clubwomen. Clubwomen in every phase of club work is vital in order for the club to continue to flourish and provide for our community. I can’t wait to see how our club will continue to grow in the next year! In Junior Spirit, Maegan Spontak

Clubwoman’s Collect

Keep us, O God, from pettiness; let us be large, in

thought, in word and deed.

Let us be done with fault finding and leave

off self-seeking.

May we put away all pretense and meet each

other face to face without self-pity and without

prejudice.

May we never be hasty in judgment and

always generous.

Let us take time for all things: make us grow calm,

serene, and gentle.

Teach us to put into action our better impulses

straight-forward and unafraid.

Grant that we may realize it is the little things that

create differences; that in the big things of life we

are one.

And may we strive to touch and to know

the great common human heart of us

all. And, O Lord God, let us forget not

to be kind.

—Mary Stewart

The fiscal year is July 1 through June 30. COMMONLY USED TERMS: “Endowment” – refers to a financial arrangement where a ‘base’ sum of money is earmarked for investment in a financial, interest baring account like a Certificate of Deposit (CD) or a Money Market Fund. The ‘base’ sum of money is called the principal and is not touched in relation to funding any Club activity, rather this principal is used to generate interest that the club can ‘skim off’ on a yearly basis to use for community impact. The intention is to fund scholarships that the Club grants. Specific details on the scholarships and candidates to receive these awards can be found in this Club Yearbook. “Line Item” – refers to specifically funded items or donations as

spelled out in the Club Budget. The Finance Committee uses

the suggestions from the past and future CSP Chairwomen, as

well as the general membership, to assign specific donation

amounts to specific charities and organizations thus making use

of the monies raised for this purpose.

“G&A” Expenses – General and administrative expenses.

These are expenses necessary to run the club.

THE BASIC STORY OF CLUB FINANCES There are two main goals when it comes to community service and the Club. Goal One is to contribute to our community in hands-on, face-to-face, personal ways. Goal Two is to collect and raise money to contribute monetarily to the community needs. The Club intends to do both. It is important to realize that the monies raised each club year determine the amount of money that the Club has to budget for the next year’s budget. During each club year, the club donates approximately 20% of the funds raised through fundraising efforts within the club year and the remaining is used for the next year’s budget. The amount used in the current year is used as a donation to the current year “President’s Project” organization. Funds are raised through the events planned by the Fund Development CSP and supported and put into action by the entire Club. Each Club member directly affects the success of the fund raising efforts by actions like attending and bringing friends and family to fundraising events, making sure to devote the necessary time and energy to all the events of the Club, both small and large. During budget planning time, the money raised from the

previous Club year is divided between Club expenses and

direct line item contributions to specific, organized charity

and community impact oriented organizations.

Suggestions and comments from past and future CSP

chairwomen, as well as any Club member, are taken into

consideration as to the organizations and charities that are

chosen for donation.

WHERE DO MY DUES GO? Each member is expected to pay dues totaling $100.00 by

June 1 of each year. These dues are paid for the following

35

Club year. A $10 late fee is assessed on payments after June 1 of each year. The Club dues do not provide any usable income for community impact or charitable support, as indicated on the breakdown below. Keeping these dues low provides no money for community impact, making fundraising as a priority each year. The following figures show that all money that is to be donated

directly to the community has to be obtained through

fundraising efforts:

NEW MEMBER FINANCE PROCESS The financial responsibilities and paying of annual dues includes all members, regardless of the length of time they have chosen to be a member of the Club. The first financial step for a New Member is the $35, nonrefundable, New Member Application Fee. Upon receiving the application form from a woman interested in considering membership in the Club, a $35 New Member Application Fee is due. A New Member who has been extended the invitation of membership, and has decided to accept membership in the Club, will be expected to pay the annual dues by June 1, on the same schedule as the rest of the Club membership, for the next Club year. This includes any New Member joining at any time, including toward the end of the Club year. Payment plans are available on an individual basis. If joining anytime from September – April 30, an application and application fee of $35 is due. The $100 annual dues for the next year will be due by May 31st. A $10 late fee is assessed on annual dues paid after June 1. If submitting an application between May 1 and Installation,

the application and an application fee of $100 is due. The

$100 covers the annual dues for the following club year.

SCHOLARSHIPS – FUNDING AND GRANTING

There are currently two scholarships that the Club grants

each year. This section of this manual discusses the funding

that allows the Club to be able to grant these important and

life changing opportunities to citizens of our community.

JWC of Raleigh Dobbins/Bedini-Lewis Endowed Scholarship: In 1983, the JWC Endowment Fund was started with the intention of one day funding a scholarship to be awarded to an adult student returning to school or further his or her

37

education. The JWC Endowment Fund principal was to increase each year by earmarking the profits from the Club’s Endowment fund raising activities. Each year, the entire profits from the fund raising activity are collected and deposited into the principal of this Fund allowing it to grow. Depending on the interest rate for the CD where these funds currently are invested, the club takes the interest off the CD upon maturity and historically has added funds from the fund raising efforts of the previous year to allow a considerable scholarship to be offered. During the Club year 2007 – 2008, 25 years after the establishment of this JWC Endowment Fund, due to a strong economy, this account was generating interest of at least $2,000, the amount of the scholarship offered. This scholarship is a line item under the Club Programs budget area. It is important to note that during down economic times, the finance committee has worked to diversify the investment fund to assure the best possible growth of the fund. There are times when the scholarship amount has been supplemented by the general fund of the club during the annual budget process. The Lynne Bedini Lewis Endowed Scholarship was established in 2004 by Ben and Peg Bedini in honor of their daughter, who served as President of the JWC during the 2003-2004 club year. In 2012, the Lynne Bedini Lewis Scholarship was merged with the Junior Woman’s Club of Raleigh Endowed Scholarship and was re-named the Dobbins/Bedini Lewis Endowed Scholarship. This was done in an effort to increase the amount of scholarship to be given in hopes of making a bigger impact on the recipients’ expenses. Sallie Southall Cotten Scholarship: The GFWC-NC encourages all Clubs to fund and grant the

Sallie Southall Cotten Scholarship each year to a

graduating senior attending a North Carolina college or

university. Generally, the Club offers a scholarship between

$2,000 and $2,500. This scholarship is funded entirely by

38

the fund raising efforts of the previous year. This

scholarship is a line item under the Education CSP budget

area.

COMMUNITY IMPACT GROUPS

As noted above, the Finance Committee meets each July to

discuss and develop the proposed Budget for the next Club

year. In the best interest of our non-profit organization,

financial assistance and donations on behalf of the Club are

only considered for groups and organizations with clear

regulations and operations. The club shall not donate funds

to individuals or loosely formed groups. In the Club year

2009-2010 the Finance Committee introduced the concept

of giving each CSP an amount of money as a line item in

the budget to award at the discretion of the members of

each CSP. This is called the Community Impact Donation.

Below and on the following page is a general listing of

organizations that have been recipients of annual budgeted

line item donations and or CSP Community Impact

Donations.

reimbursed to contact the Treasurer BEFORE assuming expenses that may not be reimbursable. Please keep in mind that any ‘non-budgeted’ expenditure over $100 shall be brought before the Board for approval. This includes any project or fund raising event that was not previously funded and, even if it is only for ‘seed money’ and the project for fund raiser will cover the expenses, this must be approved, via the minutes of the Board meeting, prior to the expenses being incurred. It is also strongly encouraged that Club women diligently try to obtain material and services for Club needs by requesting the company or individual to donate them to the Club for no charge. If this is not possible, Club women should discuss any discounts or possible advertising/supporting name trade options – any effort that could result in promoting the Club community services and/or saving the club funds is an achievement. In order to apply for reimbursement, the JWC Check Request Form must be completed and the appropriate receipts stapled or attached to the form. This form can be found on the Club website or requested from the Treasurer. Please make sure to try to use the most current form. Valid check requests will be granted in a timely manner by the Treasurer. Generally, only Executive Board officers and CSP Chairwomen are eligible for reimbursement. However, if eligible expenses are incurred by other Club women, the appropriate Executive Board officer and/or CSP Chairwoman can sign the reimbursement form attesting to the valid nature of the reimbursement request. Inappropriate Use of Club Funds:

Funds spent on the personal expenses of a Club

member;

Funds spent on a meal, event tickets or other personal gain for a Club member or Club CSP;

Funds spent without approval of the appropriate

42

chairwoman, i.e.: sending flowers to a hospitalized member when you are not the Courtesy chairwoman or acting on her behalf;

Funds spent to fund something that is not attributed on

the current budget, for example, printing a coupon booklet to raise funds when this effort has not been accepted or voted on by the Club.

REIMBURSEMENT FOR EXPENSES RELATED TO ATTENDING THE GFWC-NC STATE CONVENTION This section is to advise on the process for reimbursement of Clubwomen attending a GFVW-NC State Convention utilizing the budgeted line item under Federation Expenses, Federation Focus/Convention. Any and all Clubwomen desiring to attend the annual GFWC-NC State Convention (held in different regions of NC, annually) is encourage. As Junior Clubwomen, we are additionally encouraged to attend in the role of Pages, helpers assisting the convention organizers to run a meaningful multi-day meeting for the attendees. In any year, the members of JWC attending Convention, for any length of time, are eligible to share in the reimbursement available from any funds allocated as such in the JWC budget for that year. The initial outlay of payment is the responsibility of each member. Following Convention, the request for reimbursement and copies of all receipts related to the reimbursement are presented to the Treasurer. The Club Treasurer shall confirm with each member who attended Convention for any length of time, their desire for reimbursement prior to issuing any reimbursement to ensure equal and fair reimbursement as follows. The following steps are provided as guidance to the Clubwomen seeking reimbursement and to the Treasurer distributing the funds:

43

The reimbursement is allocated to each member on a prorated basis, based on the each Clubwoman’s total expenses for Convention. Each attendee shall complete a JWC Reimbursement Form and enclose copies of the related expenses (registration costs, hotel bills, gas receipts, etc). The JWC budget for this example year has $1000.00 available for Federation Focus/Convention expenses for Clubwomen attending the GFWC-NC State Convention. Assuming just the four women requesting reimbursement completed Reimbursement Forms and provide copies of the receipts totaling their expenses as indicated above, the Treasurer shall add the total cost of all attendees submitting for reimbursement and then calculate each person’s percentage of the total cost and then pay that percent of the budgeted amount to each attendee who submitted for reimbursement.

JUNIOR WOMAN’S CLUB OF RALEIGH COMMUNICATIONS PROCEDURES &

GUIDELINES The Importance of Consistent Internal & External Communications: There are two main types of communications for the Club, External and Internal. Different specifications and processes are associated with the communication depending on the audience. Consistent use of the same version of the Club name, placement of the logo and other branding opportunities reinforces the Club’s brand nature, communication of the Club’s key messages and presents an enhanced picture of an organized, business oriented Club. This is the picture the Club wants to present to the public and its own members. By enforcing this opportunity to present a strong, business oriented face to the world, the Club will be taken seriously and garner serious consideration from prospective donors, potential members and the non profit sector allowing additional opportunities to improve our community and environment. Logos, Templates and Naming Conventions The following guidelines should be followed for all external and internal club communications: Official Club Seal (Club Logo)

Club Seal should appear on all external communications and as many internal communication as appropriate.

47

In general, on correspondence letters, if the official club stationary is not being utilized, the Club Seal should appear in the upper right hand corner of the first page. If a more artistic approach is being utilized for the letter, it is acceptable to place the Club Seal anywhere on the first page of the letter. No other logo or clip art should be bigger in size than the Club Seal and the club seal shall always hold more prominence than any other logo or seal. The Club Seal can be found on the Club website under the Members Only section. When resizing the image of the Club Seal, a careful approach to increasing or decreasing the size must be taken. Be sure to hold down the <Shift> key, or utilize the correct arrows and drag the image from the corner. This will ensure the aspect ratio of the seal will remain consistent. That is, make sure to increase or decrease in the same ratio to the picture. The Club Seal should be a perfect circle and should not be ‘dragged’ to widen the circle or lengthen the circle out of proportion. The Club Seal cannot appear as an ellipse.

CORRECT!! Incorrect Incorrect

Official Club Name The official Club Name is “Junior Woman’s Club of Raleigh” The Club Name, in its entirety, should appear on all external communications and as many internal

48

communications as appropriate.

If there is an issue of name length, or the audience of the communication is familiar with the acronym, it is acceptable to use “JWC of Raleigh.” Be aware that it is preferred to utilize the entire Club Name to increase public exposure and knowledge of the Club. Please note, if using “JWC of Raleigh” on any letter or document, there should be subsequent references in the narrative defining what the letters ‘JWC’ stand for (Junior Woman’s Club). Official Tag Line “A member of the General Federation of Women's Clubs” The Club Tag Line, in its entirety, should appear jointly with the Club Seal and Club Name on all external communications and as many internal communications as appropriate. The Club Tag Line should be in italics font. In general, on correspondence letters, if the official club stationary is not be utilized, the Club Tag Line should appear centered, at the bottom of the first page in italics and in a font slightly smaller than what is being used in the body of the correspondence. Official Club Contact Information: The official Club street mailing address is: Junior Woman’s Club of Raleigh 3300 Woman’s Club Drive Raleigh, NC 27612 The official Club telephone number is: 919-685-1889 The official Club website address is: www.jwcraleigh.org

49

When possible, all of the official Club contact information should be utilized in external communications. The Club mailing street address should always be the contact address communicated to all organizations and business partners of matters involving the Club. Due to the volunteer oriented nature of the Club, it is suggested that clubwomen supply their official office or CSP title in lieu of their name when supplying contact information in all business matters of the club. For example, mail should arrive to the Club directed to “Home Life CSP Chairwoman” in lieu of “Cindy Jones”. Mailing lists last longer than the terms of the Club volunteer leadership roles, and misguided mail can be avoided by ensuring the right area of club work is utilized. The official Club website address should be ‘active’ or ‘hyperlinked’ if possible on all communication. By ensuring this link will connect interested parties directly to the Club website, increased information and ease of advertising is achieved. Official Font The official Club typeface font is named Arial (or Calibri). This font was selected for its appearance, readability on screen or in print, and for online communications it is accessible from a variety of software versions. All official letters and emails should utilize the font of Arial (or Calibri) and, in general, be in 11 point size. For more artistic endeavors, other fonts can be utilized, but for ease of reading, a communication should not utilize more than one typeface font in the same document. All Club business communications in written form and printed should utilize Black ink color. Optional E-Mail Signature Considering the vast amount of business and personal communication that is conducted via e-mail, Club members

50

promotion in this medium. Any club member who wishes to attach an e-mail signature to their correspondence can utilize the following suggested example below. If including the social media icons, ensure that the Facebook icon is hyperlinked to https://www.facebook.com/jwcraleigh and the Twitter icon is hyperlinked to https://twitter.com/jwcofraleigh.

The following guidelines are upheld to utilize e-mail in the most respectful way to all members. All club “mass” or “group” e-mail communications and bulletins are sent by the Club Vice President of Club Communications.

Chairwomen, Executive Committee, any standing Committee leader or any club member. This section speaks primarily to the ‘mass’ or ‘e-Blast’ type of e-mail that is sent to all active members of the Club. The Club Vice President of Club Communications will follow these guidelines: All Club Group e-mails or e-Blasts will be sent twice a week and will encompass all the information submitted up to that point. It is up to the discretion of the Vice President of Club Communications if additional e-mails or information of a more urgent nature would precipitate additional distribution occurrences, not to exceed three in the same week. All Club Group e-mails will be sent with the address list as a blind copy (cloaked email addresses of the recipients) to the individual Club members to protect privacy. Information being submitted to the Vice President of Club Communications for inclusion in the Club Group e-mail will be submitted via e-mail and will have been proofed and edited for readability. Utilize these “five W’s” when crafting e-mail communications: Who? What? Where? When? Why? Each Club Group e-mail item will include the email address and name of the Club member who inquiry or responses should be directed. Club members should be careful not to direct their responses to the Vice President of Club Communications when inappropriate. Courtesy announcements (marriage, birth, exciting news, deaths, etc) should be directed to the Vice President of Retention and the Courtesy Chairwoman. These ladies will determine if the Courtesy announcement should be included in a Club Group e-mail, included in the Tel-A-Junior newsletter or other means of announcement.

Only items relating to Club business will be relayed using the Club Group e-mail.

56

If the Vice President of Club Communications has any question to the appropriateness of a suggested Club Group e-mail, she will inquire with a Club Executive Committee member for determination and agreement. Club Tel-A-Junior Newsletter Communication Guidelines: The Club utilizes a monthly newsletter called the Tel-A-Junior to communicate and calendar the activities and future plans of the Club. The Tel-A-Junior is crafted and distributed by the Vice President of Club Communications. The following information is provided to assist in article submission by Club members as well as the delivery schedule. Unless otherwise arranged, the Tel-A-Junior is distributed via e-mail to all active Club members, honorary members and other interested parties in the community. Articles are submitted from anyone wanting to communicate Club business, dates, news and other interesting items. Specifically, the CSP Chairwomen and Committee leaders are expected to submit their articles to the Vice President of Club Communications by deadline dates. These dates, which change yearly, can be found on the Club Calendar. Newsletter Article Writing Tips:

1. Be short and sweet. Readers have short attention spans; no one wants to read more than three or four paragraphs.

2. Sound human. Your readers are real people who will be more engaged if they think you're a real person too. Leave the jargon and acronyms behind and write in your true voice. Sometimes reading your stories out loud is the best way to judge the human factor.

3. Give yourself time. Allow yourself adequate time to think about what you are going to write, allowing time for revisions, proofing etc.

JWC of Raleigh Dobbins/Bedini-Lewis Endowed Scholarship Fund The Junior Woman's Club of Raleigh Endowment Fund, hereinafter called the “Fund“, was established in 1983 by Marilyn Gardner in honor of outgoing President Martha L. Dobbins. The Lynne Bedini Lewis Endowed Scholarship was established in 2004 by Ben and Peg Bedini in honor of their daughter, who served as President of the JWC during the 2003-2004 club year. In 2012, the Lynne Bedini Lewis Scholarship was merged with the Junior Woman’s Club of Raleigh Endowed Scholarship and was re-named the Dobbins/Bedini Lewis Endowed Scholarship.

The following guidelines apply to the Endowment Committee and the Fund:

3. The purpose of the scholarship(s) is to assist an adult student, working mother or single mother returning to school to further his or her education.

Home Life: Nancy Hutchinson nancy@sighutchinson.com 919-740-8843 Woman’s Club of Raleigh History In October 1904, Mrs. Elvira Evelyna Worth Moffitt invited

a group of ladies to meet with her in the State Library

Reading Room for the sole purpose of organizing a

Woman’s Club. These 146 ladies elected Miss Fannie

Heck as the first president of their new Club and wasted

no time in putting their dreams and ideas to work through

a variety of areas. These were women committed to the

betterment of themselves and their community. By 1906,

membership reached 180. The Club became a part of the

NC Federation of Women’s Clubs and was incorporated

on December 3, 1906 as The Woman’s Club of Raleigh,

Inc. Early activities included the first free milk fund, first

baby clinic, free lunch program for undernourished

children in the area, promotion of a County Health

Department, securing the first public health nurse,

providing supplies for the new Rex Hospital and planning

creative, interesting, educational programs for all

members. The Woman’s Club of Raleigh sponsored the

organization of the Junior Woman’s Club of Raleigh in

1928.

Basic Parliamentary Rules

1. The purpose of parliamentary law is to help the chairperson keep order and to give clear direction to the discussion and business procedure.

2. Club bylaws take priority in parliamentary procedure. Robert's Rules of Order, Revised are secondary.

3. The President votes only in the case of a tie.

4. A motion, made and seconded, is necessary before any discussion may take place. Say, “I move to...or, I move that…”. Do not say, “I make a motion…”. The maker of the motion should discuss first, if she so desires.

5. Board action is usually a recommendation and must be voted upon by the membership.

6. All remarks are addressed to the Chairperson unless a “Point of Information“ is granted by the Chairperson to direct a question to the speaker.

7. At any time, a member may address the Chairperson “Madame President, I rise to Point of Order” in order to clarify procedure or to restore order.

8. By permission of the meeting, debate and discussion may be limited.

9. It is the duty of every member who has an opinion on a question to express it by her vote, but she cannot be compelled to do so, in which case she may abstain.

10. The main motion may be disposed of through any of the following actions:

The motion:

a. May be passed or rejected.

b. It may be moved to lay the motion on the table, which means that consideration will be postponed. This motion is not debatable. Before it can be reconsidered (a time limit may be stated), someone must move that “it be taken from the table”.

c. Someone may move to postpone discussion. This motion is debatable and requires discussion.

93

d. Someone may move to commit. When a motion becomes involved or when it seems wise to investigate it more carefully, it may be moved to commit to a committee for consideration. This is not debatable and takes precedence. A report must be returned by the committee at a later date.

e. The motion may be amended. Amendments cannot change the fundamental intent of the motion. The amendment must be voted on before a vote is taken on the main motion. Motions to amend are debatable.

f. The motion may be withdrawn with unanimous consent of the meeting. This motion must be made by the original mover or the seconded.

g. A motion to reconsider (to discuss again after passage with a view to changing action) is in order, providing the motion is made by one who voted with the majority.
