This section is all about money. How to get it, and how to best look after it for your club. From applying for grants to getting, managing a bank account and sponsors, to understanding your budget and getting tax invoices with the correct info, finance is a big part of running your club. This page also includes info about clubs and insurance.
Clubs Grants information is distributed directly to all Club Leaders and Club emails as per their completed annual online details forms.
Club Grants are only available to Clubs that have finalised all aspects of their full RUSU Clubs affiliation. This requires:
All Fully Affiliated Clubs are eligible for this grant – it is paid directly to your Club’s bank account.

In addition to the completed APR form, you need to supply (for each event you are claiming APR for) the record of your Executive approving the spending (minutes of club executive meeting(s)/email communications, etc), proof of event (poster, Facebook event page/photos, etc) and proof of payments (receipts, online payment transfers to suppliers, etc).
If you have lost receipts or only received an invoice and have no proof you paid cash, you can submit a completed Statutory Declaration (Stat Dec) explaining what you purchased, what for (the event name and date) how much it cost, and the fact that you have misplaced the proof of payments. Make sure you also include your club name and your role in the club.
Statutory Declarations are legal documents that must be signed by an authorised witness. You can download a blank copy and instructions about Stat Decs below.
