By now, every Lodge should know that all their servers of alcohol are
required to be certified in either the TIPS (Training for Intervention
ProcedureS) program or another state/provincial approved server training
program. We also strongly recommend that social quarters managers
and all officers attend a class so they are familiar with the laws and
can support their bartenders’ efforts. Regardless of the program
you use, all servers are required to be recertified every three years.
You are responsible to
make sure copies of the servers’ certificates or cards are available for
onsite inspection and that copies are sent to the Risk Management
Department at Moose International.
They may be
sent by fax (6308596624), email or regular mail
155 S.

Moose International has mandated that all persons serving alcohol
beverages in any Moose Lodge be trained and certified in any approved
responsible beverage service program. This applies to all persons
serving alcohol beverages; that is, bartenders, waitresses/waiters, or
any other category of persons delivering beverages to patrons.
This includes volunteer bartenders, and volunteer servers.
The Virginia Moose Lodges
have four Certified TIPS Trainers located in various parts of the state
so there should be no difficulty for any Lodge to arrange for beverage
server training. The Certified Trainers and their contact
information is listed at the top of this document. Additionally,
most major beverage distributors have a TIPS Trainer on-staff, so “in a
pinch”, they may be contacted.
The in-class training
method is preferred as our trainers cover not only server training, but
material that Social Quarters Managers must know to comply with State of
Virginia laws, as well as material specific to the Loyal Order of Moose.
However, in cases where it is impossible for a server to attend an
in-class training session, there is an on-line version of the TIPS
program at
www.gettips.com. By arrangement with Moose International,
Health Communications Inc (HCI) offers a discount to Moose servers, if
the promotional code “MOOSEPROMO16” is typed on the “Review
Registration” page. The regular on-line registration is $40.00,
but with the 40% discount it is only $24.00. Here are the
instructions for registering for on-line certification.:
1. Go to
www.gettips.com/eTIPS.shtml
2. Click on “Take Online Course”.
3. Complete the registration form and click on “Register”.
(Select training for "restaurant, bar, hotel, nightclub, or movie
theater) You will receive a short state regulatory message
before coming to the payment form.
4.  On the
payment form, be sure to type MOOSEPROMO16
(effective June 1, 2011) in the promotional
code field.
5. Complete
the payment information (credit cards only), (be sure to type
"MOOSEPROMO16" in the promotion code field), and take the eTIPS
course.
Click Here
to view and print instructions for taking the eTIPS online course.
Social Quarters Managers are reminded that if a new server is hired,
he/she must be trained and certified within 30 days. He/she may
work under the supervision of a certified server during that 30 day
period.
Lodges may contact a
trainer directly. Anyone having questions about the TIPS program
should contact Jerry Lloyd, (Certified TiPS Trainer) at (804) 472-2450
or igl@crosslink.net. |

All Non-profit Organizations are not created equal
The Moose Fraternity compared to Moose Charities |
|
Click Here to View and Print this document in Adobe PDF
|
All
nonprofit organizations are not created equal. There have been some
questions regarding the deductibility of donations to lodges and
Moose Charities. This document is intended to clarify how those
donations are treated differently by the Internal Revenue Service.
Moose International, Inc. is a tax-exempt 501(c)(8)
not-for-profit fraternal organization. A 501(c)(8) organization is
defined by the Internal Revenue Service as a: Fraternal beneficiary
society, order or association operated under the lodge system or for
the exclusive benefit of the members of a fraternal beneficiary
society, order or association operating under the lodge system which
provides for the payment of life, sick, accident, or other benefits
to the members of such society, order or association or their
dependents.
All subordinate entities including Moose Associations,
Moose Legions, Moose Lodges and Chapters are also classified as
501(c)(8) tax-exempt organizations under the Internal Revenue Code.
They are all considered member-benefit organizations and their main
purpose is fraternal, not charitable. The tax-exempt function is
related to the causes that these groups raise funds for.
Does this mean that any donations to the lodge are not
deductible? No. Donations may be made to the lodge, however, the
only charitable tax deductible contributions that are allowed must
be used exclusively for religious, scientific, literary, or
educational purposes or for the prevention of cruelty to children or
animals or for the support of a recognized 501(c)(3) public charity.
If lodges are going to accept donations, they need to have a
separate segregated fund for those charitable donations and they
must follow all laws and IRS rules for handling those donations and
giving
receipts. Because the donation is to the 501(c)(8) organization, the
donor may deduct contributions representing up to 30% of the donor's
adjusted gross income if the individual itemizes on his/her tax
returns.
Mooseheart Child City and School, Inc., Moosehaven,
Inc. and Moose Charities, Inc. are classified as 501(c)(3) public
charities. They are all considered public benefit organizations and
their purpose is charitable, not fraternal.
Under IRS's Internal Revenue Code Section 170, individuals giving to
501(c)(3) organizations that are either public charities, private
operating foundations, and certain private foundations may deduct
contributions representing up to 50% of the donor's adjusted gross
income if the individual itemizes on his/her tax returns.
Why can’t the lodges be designated as 501(c)(3)
organizations? The main reason is that they are private membership
organizations. Also, charitable projects are not their main
function, they operate for the benefit of our membership which would
serve to defeat the qualification as 501(c)(3) organizations.
If you have any questions regarding your tax-exempt status, please
contact Stacy Herrmann at 630-859-2000 x 6517 or at
sherrmann@mooseintl.org.
