I have called a few people and I called the woman in charge of the Emergency Grants, I think her name was Colleen, it was listed in the yellow pages and she said the situation would definitely be valid, but that the sister couldn't use the money to go towards dues. The money would have to go to books or something. I thought the Emergency Grant would totally work, but I guess that isn't an option.

Katie:
Here are a few questions:
(1) If she could get the emergency grant for her situation, why can't she use the money KKG will give her to pay for books, tuition, etc., and then use the money she had budgeted to pay for books, tuition, etc. to pay for her dues?
(2) When Kappa pays out the money for the emergency grant, do they pay it to the girl, or to some third-party? If they pay it directly to her, why can't she just decide where to allocate the funds?
(3) Does Colleen (at HQ) have any other suggestions?
(4) Have you tried calling the President of the BIAA? I bet they have some kind of fund for this situation.
