you knowme, the ex-CKA, but just gotta put in my 202 cents
I remember reading somewhere that it is the chapter's duty to help pay for whatever the CKA needs. I tried getting my chapter to put in an advisor's expense for me when i lived away from them, but the financial advisor didn't want them to deal with it at that time.
Best bet, email your mm who'll find out if she doesn't know already.
