The annual report for an association is typically written by the board or leadership team. It’s a document that gives members and stakeholders an overview of the association’s activities and results during the financial year. The report usually includes information about the association’s purpose, projects, events, financial status, and other relevant happenings throughout the year.

Here are some typical elements that can be included in an annual report:

Introduction: A brief description of the association, its purpose, and mission.

Year in review: A summary of the key events and activities during the year.

Projects and activities: A description of the projects, events, or initiatives the association has carried out during the year.

Membership: Information about membership, including number of members, membership trends, and member statistics.

Finances: An overview of the association’s financial situation, including income, expenses, and any financial challenges or goals.

Outlook: A brief assessment of the association’s plans and objectives for the coming year.

Thanks to volunteers: Recognition and appreciation of volunteers, sponsors, and others who have contributed to the association’s success.

Changes to the bylaws: If any changes were made to the association’s bylaws during the year, these should also be mentioned.

The annual report should typically be published and shared with members and other relevant parties, such as authorities or potential sponsors. It can optionally be written by the chairperson and approved by the rest of the board.
