If you are a SGI-recognized budgetary organization, you have access to money allocated to your organization by SGI, pending the completion of your “Budget Proposal Packet”. These funds can be used for anything but;
• Transportation fees
• Giveaways/prizes
• Fundraising Items
• Trophies/certificates
• Contributions to charities
• Alcohol
• Taxes
• Expedited Shipping
In order to be reimbursed for a purchase using your budget money, you must complete the member reimbursement/purchase request form on Engage. You need to upload an original receipt that includes the name of the store/company as well as the date the purchase was made, which must be in PDF format. Your request will be denied if it is not a PDF document.
You will also need to thoroughly explain what the money is being used for in the description area of the form. All reimbursements must be submitted before June 30th when the fiscal year ends.
Ask the vendor you are working with if the check can be cut directly to them.
