Promised Land Volunteer Relief Association – Pike County – Audit Period January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023

The compliance audit of the Promised Land Volunteer Relief Association for January 1, 2021, to December 31, 2023, assessed prior corrective actions and compliance with legal and administrative standards. The audit, not following U.S. Government Auditing Standards, found that the association addressed two out of three prior findings. The remaining issue involved insufficient Surety bond coverage for their disbursing officer, with cash exceeding bond limits. Additionally, the audit revealed undocumented expenditures. The association generally complied with state laws, contracts, bylaws, and procedures regarding state aid and fund use, despite issues highlighted in the report. The findings were outlined in a memo to the management who had not responded by the audit’s release. This indicates a need for the association to address outstanding compliance issues effectively.
