As a Committee Chair you may be responsible for the following:
• Purchasing or procuring items
• Handling Funds – checks and cash
• Assisting with scholarship for PTA Sponsored Programs
The good news is, we have established process and procedures in place to make this easy!
15
Navigating the Financial World of Arrowhead PTA
1. If other PTA members are purchasing on behalf of your committee, clearly communicate the amount you have authorized them to spend.
2. If they overspend thank them for their generous donation!
3. Save all your receipts. Expenses can’t be reimbursed to you or others if there is not documentation supporting the expense.
4. Complete an Expense Reimbursement Form with attached receipts. Leave expense reimbursement requests in the Treasurer’s mail box located in the office.
5. Expect a check in your Committee box in less than a week!
Purchasing Items for your Committee
16
Cash Boxes- Some events require starter cash
1.5 Days prior to your event, submit an expense reimbursement form to the Treasurer. Specify the committee and the funds are for starter cash.
2.The Treasurer will issue a check in your name and you will cash it.
3.Prior to your event, obtain one or more cash boxes. Cash boxes can be found under the PTA mailboxes in the office. You will also need a cash deposit sheet and a calculator.
4.Never leave the cash box unattended at an event!
5.After the event, make sure two PTA members simultaneously count the cash, and properly complete the cash deposit sheet. Cash deposit sheets must be signed by counters.
6.Roll coins and bundle bills by denomination.
7.Prearrange with the Treasurer for collection of the deposit. PTA cash cannot be kept in your home .
