Close an event with a single page the treasurer can bank from, instead of a biscuit tin and four people's recollections.
Churches, PTAs, community groups and charities running fairs, coffee mornings, quiz nights, sales and sponsored events.
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: The takings from one fundraising event, stall by stall, counted and signed by two people before the money leaves the building.
Two names on every line. How your group counts, who counts it and what happens to the money afterwards are your own rules — this sheet leaves room for two signatures on every line because most groups want them, not because anything here says you must.
Write-on lines: Event · Date · Venue · Treasurer
Table, 5 rows: Stall or activity · Float out · Cash counted · Card / online · Net taken · Counted by · Checked by
Table, 4 rows: Paid to · What for · Amount · Receipt · Authorised by
Write-on lines: Total taken · Total paid out · Banked / paid in on · Paying-in reference
Because counting cash in pairs is what most groups ask of their volunteers, and it protects the volunteer as much as the money. Nothing here requires it — if your group counts differently, use the second column for whoever checks.
Some groups allow it and some insist everything is banked gross and paid by invoice. The sheet has a place to record it either way; which you do is your group's own rule.
Keep gifts of goods visible in the accounts and in the thank-you list, instead of letting them disappear into a store cupboard unrecorded.
Stop a deadline or a reporting date slipping past unnoticed, and see at a glance how much of the year's funding is still undecided.
Count a drawer properly and record the variance, so a pattern of small differences becomes visible instead of being quietly absorbed.
Get the day out of one person's head and onto a page everybody can read, so the event does not stall when the organiser is dealing with something else.
The same subject, with a version you can fill in on screen.
Every source of money towards the appeal, with the date.
The cost of the contents going into each hamper.
Each round's theme, who is setting it and who is marking.
The event, the participant and the hand-in date.
Every sheet, binder, game and puzzle on Upkeep Papers is free to download, with no email and no account. Making them is not free: each one takes days of research, design and checking, and the site costs money to run. If something here saved you time, you can buy us a coffee. It is entirely optional: nothing is locked, and nothing changes if you don’t.
