House Corp Embezzlement Suspicion

[bejazd]

It's possible that your GLO may prefer that HCB officers are not paid, but the HCB bylaws may allow certain officers to be compensated. For example, if the HCB Treasurer handles billing and collections, the HCB might pay the treasurer a stipend. Before you jump to conclusions, contact your go to person at the International level.

Sometimes there's an understandably cantankerous (sp?) relationship between HCBs and the House mom and it wouldn't be right to assume anything without getting all the facts first.

*deja vu all over again*

This DID happen to my chapter. The Housing Corporation Treasurer squandered the HC money for three years prior to her getting caught. My roomie (the President) & I (VP) were talking and realized it had been ages since there had been a formal HC meeting. We contacted our Alumnae Association (she was Treasurer there, too) President, who in turn contacted the person involved. The AA President wasn't happy with her answers, so she contacted our Executive Office.

Without saying much more, there was an audit, we had NO monies left in our account, and the person involved is no longer a sister of Alpha Delta Pi!

I can't urge you enough to MOVE QUICKLY!!!! IF THERE IS ANY DOUBT, GET THE ACCOUNT CLOSED, BEFORE THEY ARE CLOSED BEFORE YOU GET A CHANCE TO AUDIT THE ACCOUNT!!!!!!!
