Financial Procedures

Section I: Returned Checks (i.e. Insufficient funds, Account Closed,
Funds Not Available etc.)

• A $25 fee will be charged for each returned check.

• Individuals and companies with outstanding returned checks
will not be allowed to write any checks to the chapter or the
foundation until the check is cleared. Please note if the check
is from a soror, she will also not be allowed to obtain active
membership until the debt to Alpha Kappa Omega Chapter
and/or to its Foundation has been cleared.

• After an individual or company has been notified by the
Tamiouchos of their returned check, they have 30 days to
make restitution or arrangements for restitution with the
chapter or have the bad check sent to the District Attorney.

Writing a Bad Check is Against the Law and is Not the AKA Way.

limited to a maximum of 20. When these or a portion thereof
are paid for, then a soror may receive additional tickets.
