PECSF Regional Deposits& ServiceBC The way to get cash donations from the Regions to PECSF …
Why are we doing this? • In areas/regions with no Coast Capital Savings Credit Unions, PECSF volunteers have struggled to manage cash donations and money raised through fundraisers and gaming events. • Volunteers have found ingenious ways to get $ to Victoria: • Talking banks into giving them free money orders • Writing personal cheques in exchange for the money raised • Bundling the cash & cheques into double wrapped envelopes and mailing/couriering them to Victoria • Each of these ways put the money and the volunteers at risk!
The solution! • Service BC has stepped in to help PECSF set up a method for money collection at your local Service BC office. • Step 1: Fill out some forms • Step 2: Take the cash & cheques to Service BC • Step 3: Service BC does the rest! They will process the deposit. • At the end of the campaign Service BC will transfer the funds to PECSF in Victoria for the amount of ALL the deposits made during the campaign.
Here’s how it will work: • Once you have held your • Fundraiser Events • Gaming Events or • Collected cash/cheque donations from individual Ensure that you have a completed eFormforeach Event or have a signed Pledge form foreach Donation. You will use the #s on the top of each eForm and EmployeeID# to complete the Service BC “Transaction Register”. NOTE: DEADLINE for ServiceBC deposits is November 23, 2012.
Here’s how it will work: (Cont’d) • Go to: http://www.communityfund.gov.bc.ca/formsPECSF.htm • Here you will find the: Regional Deposit and Register Form with ServiceBC • Once you open this document you will find all the forms you will need for the deposit process. • Transaction Register • Location - Region #s Listing • Deposit Form • These forms are found in the tabs along the bottom left of the excel workbook.

Transaction Register: • Once again, go to: http://www.communityfund.gov.bc.ca/formsPECSF.htm • Here you will find the Regional Deposit and Register Form with ServiceBC • It is a good idea to start filling this out as soon as the donations are collected and events finish. • If you have lots of forms, then consider doing 1 deposit a month. • If you only have a few, then consider doing 1 deposit at the end of the campaign (by November 23, 2012).
Transaction Register (cont’d): • Once you have collected the donations & event monies: • Step 1: Fill out the Transaction Register (see next slide & it’s notes) • Step 2: Save the .xls for your files • Step 3: print out a copy to accompany the pledge/ fundraiser/ gaming forms that you will send to Victoria after making the deposit
