If Annie Alum wants to write a check out to Ashley Active (rather than XYZ) because she's heard that Ashley Active is a kick-butt sister but doesn't have two dimes to rub together, that's Annie's business.
You can't have alum fundraisers and use that for dues, but if an alumna wants to write a check directly to your landlord for rent, or to the party store for rush decorations, there's really nothing you can do to prevent her from doing so. Alums making these sorts of donations may enable you to reduce your local dues.
