If you are taking students, they can also receive the same meal allotment. You can fill out one Travel Conference Form and attach a list of students attending.

This way the funds do not go through ASB Scholarships Only allowed when the funds have been donated to the school for that specific purpose. (Considered Gift of Public Funds)
30 Charitable Donations We want to acknowledge that teaching our students to give back to the community is a vital life lesson. That said, we as a school can not make monetary donations to an outside charity or individual in need. ASB accounts are not Pass-Through Accounts. Money deposited into ASB must be used for the greater benefit of the entire student body.
31 Charitable Donations Donations from ASB to a nonprofit organization or individual in need are not allowable because they are considered gifts of public funds.
32 How can we help a charitable organization? A student group may organize a fundraiser to support and outside agency as long as the event is clearly identified as raising funds to donate to a charitable organization. All donations should be in the form of a check that is made payable to that charitable organization. Any checks made payable to the school must be returned to the donor and reissued with the correct Payee Name No deposits can be made into the ASB accounts. Once funds are deposited into ASB they are considered public funds and must be used for the entire student body.
33 How can we help a charitable organization cont. You can ask a district approved Parent Group or Booster to sponsor an event for the charitable organization. They are allowed to take in donations and cut the check directly to the charitable organization. They can not gift any funds that were raised on the behalf of our school. Only funds from the specific event advertised for the charitable organization may be gifted.
34 Fundraising Websites Online fundraising is an emerging issue. We as TRUSD have not approved any online fundraising accept the Bluebear Online Webstore. See Denisa Marquez, Fiscal Services for details on how to create an online donation page. GoFundMe and other online fundraising accounts are not allowed to solicit funds on behalf of the district or any of its students
35 Pennies for Patients Pennies for Patients will often drop off donation boxes. Once filled they will pick up the boxes. If they are unable to pick up the boxes, a staff member can take the boxes to Wells Fargo where we bank with and have them cut a money order directly to the charitable organization. You CAN NOT deposit into the ASB account and cut a check. This would be a gift of public funds.
36 Penny Wars If your Class of Accounts want to participate in penny wars to raise funds for class accounts you can deposit the funds into ASB. If your Class of Accounts want to participate in penny wars to raise funds for a charitable organization, you must take the funds to Wells Fargo. Then have the bank issue a money order to the charitable organization. You CAN NOT deposit the funds into ASB then cut a check. That would be a gift of public funds.
37 Petty Cash and Cash Advances Not Allowed High Risk to Employee and School Site District Policy is No Advances through ASB
38 Athletic/Club Till Only exception is for gate start up cash Check can only be cut in admins name Admin is personally responsible for the return deposit of the exact amount given for start up Do not use cash to pay invoices, ticket takers, or vendors Till must be tracked with a log. Till must be counted at time of pick up and time of return Funds must be re-deposited at the end of each school year.
39 Associated Student Body Advisor Training Reduces Audit Findings Goal with advisor training Clean Audits No findings on receipt of cash (pre-numbered receipts tally sheets or sales logs) Physical inventory maintained with advisors Fundraiser Maintenance Donation Forms Completed Trained on Track Sales Importance of preparing Budgets and Carry Over Requests each year
40 Associated Student Body Bluebear Accounting Software Schoolbooks GL Maintenance Vendor Maintenance Monthly Bank Reconciliation Year End Audit Reports Tracks Customer/Item Maintenance Fundraiser Maintenance Inventory Control Equipment Tracking Track Sales Credit Card Sales Web Viewer Principal Oversight Student Council/Advisor Oversight

52 Commonly Asked Questions Q: Why must I complete all this paperwork for a fundraiser? A: All Fundraisers must be properly documented for internal control reasons. This documentation protects all the people involved in the fundraiser as well as the assets of the school and district. Finally, it provides us with the required adequate audit trail.
53 Commonly Asked Questions Q: Our school sells ASB discount cards and Athletic Passes. Is this allowable? A: Yes, discount cards or stickers which are sold to allow a student to attend events free or at a lesser charge are allowable. You can not charge for the ASB card its self. Only for replacement cards. Only the discount option can be sold.
54 Commonly Asked Questions Q: Our high school requires its AP students to prepay non-refundable AP exam fees. These fees are kept in an ASB account. Shouldn t these fees be processed through the district s regular budget system? A: There is no law that I could find that specifically mentions this. However it is district policy that all AP funds are deposited as a WHIZ ticket to the business office using budget code LOC
55 Commonly Asked Questions Q: Can I hand out Gifts/Awards? A: Previous legal opinions have been yes, in De Minimums or trivial amounts smaller than $20. FCMAT s opinion says no gifts or awards in any amount. District ASB Policy is yes as long as it is under $20 and you are not purchasing gift cards. You can Gift/Award a big item if the items are donated. You can not raffle them off, that would be a game of chance. No staff gifts or awards of any amount
56 Commonly Asked Questions Q: Can we save our left over Class of 2009 money for our 10 year reunion? A: No. Funds for alumni groups are not allowed. Funds raised by students should be use on the behalf of those students while at school. Alumni are no longer part of the student body.
