DEBORDIEU has been approved by the IRS as a 501.c3 nonprofit organization and is governed separately from the Club and Community Board of Governors.

DEBORDIEU was established to provide need-based assistance to the valued employees of The DeBordieu Club and/or DeBordieu Colony through a structured granting process.

Hardships in the following categories:

• Educational needs.
• Natural disasters.
• Life-threatening or serious illness or injury.
• Death of an active employee, spouse, or minor child.
• Catastrophic circumstances, such as fire, robbery, or other
• reportable incident beyond the employee’s control.

All DeBordieu Club and/or DeBordieu Colony employees below the department head level qualify if they are in good standing, have been employed for at least six months, and regularly work at least 20 hours per week.

DEBORDIEU is comprised of seven volunteer board members. The board will determine the dollar amount and which employees will receive funding through a very structured application and granting process.

Once the employee completes the application and the board reviews and approves it on a timely basis, the amount determined will be given directly to the vendor.

The DeBordieu Legacy Fund is completely separate from the DeBordieu Club and the DeBordieu Colony Board of Directors, and is not governed by either entity. The DLF is governed by a board of directors that is legally responsible for the organization’s mission, assets, and compliance with the law. The Board adheres to state and federal regulations and specific organizational bylaws.
