Relief funding is to aid YFS ratified clubs who have taken a significant loss on an event and is available all year round. Relief funding may be applied for once per fiscal year. Also the amount eligible to apply for is $800 in relief funding. We do strongly urge fiscal discipline in organizing your events.
For Example: Your club had a "Formal Dinner" that the overall cost was $1500 with a ticket price of $20 but only forty people attended and the ticket sales were your only source of revenue. Your club is then at a loss of $600. Your club can then apply for relief funding for the lost amount. If the amount lost is greater than $800 you are still limited at $800 in relief funding.
Please keep in mind that the YFS does not fund alcohol or gasoline expenses.
