5. SGA Finance Committee continued  Paying a guest speaker requires the speaker to submit a W-9 form or invoice with SS# or Tax ID number well in advance.  Providing details about other funding sources is important.  Student out-of-pocket contribution may be considered.  Must submit request form to the Office of Student Activities at least 10 DAYS PRIOR to the date the funds are needed.  Once funding is approved, payment will be on a reimbursement basis – save receipts. Submit receipts within 1 month of your transactions.  If other payment arrangements are necessary (examples: cash advance, paying an instructor or guest speaker), students must work with Melody Huebel, Office Manager.  Funds appropriated to a club must be spent before the school year ends.

6. Fundraising  Fundraisers must be approved in advance by Student Activities.  Communicate fundraising plans with your club moderator.  Clubs may apply to the SGA Finance Committee for funds to cover fundraiser start-up costs.  All money raised during a fundraiser must be brought to the Office of Student Activities so money may be deposited for safe-keeping. Students access this money by working with the Office Manager, Melody Huebel.  Clubs are not permitted to fund a guest speaker using money from outside organizations.  Students may not donate via the Evergreen Card unless they are purchasing a specific good or service related to a fundraiser.  Students must use money obtained through fundraising by the end of the school year in which the money was raised.
