5013c Help
Our team (5107) mostly payed for our robot outside of the registration costs came out of pocket for our rookie year (last year). This year we are much more involved in fundrasing thus establishing our relationship with our nonprofit much more. The way they have it set up currently is they accept any and all money for us then put it out ASB account. We had no issue with that until we went to get the money they put in there. Our ASB has set up a system where you have to propose to them what you want to purchase then once the ASB has approved that, one or more week later, you have to give them a receipt of purchase so they can reimburse you if you buy it out of pocket or an invoice so ASB can order the part for us. We were very frustrated because we can not afford to buy it out of pocket. When we asked why we can not get out money out of ASB then put it in a team controlled checking account so we have direct access to it, I was told it was illegal. What are your thoughts on that? Is it illegal? What is your teams relationship with your nonprofits?
