FINS WAY UP to all of you that “Partied with a Purpose” this past quarter! To be included in this list you need to post on the PHiP Club Leader’s Yahoo groups lists when you have a charitable or community service activity. Some clubs write a short “quarterly report” or recap of their activities and post that or send directly to me at [email protected]. This is a way for clubs to keep things up to date and helps with putting together the semi-annual charitable reports that are due to PHiP membership in January and July for the prior six months. The January report covers six months starting with July 1 - December 31) and is submitted on paper with the Annual Renewal docu- ments. The July report, or interim report, covers January 1 - June 30 and is submitted electronically.
