Condition: The Organization maintains cash balances in excess of federally insured limits in a financial institution that does not meet HUD guidelines. Questioned costs: None Context: The cash balance as of December 31, 2024 was approximately $740,000, held in two financial institutions, which exceeded federal insurance limits by approximately $470,000. Cause: As the Organization is a community based non-profit organization, management considers supporting a local bank to be a worthwhile endeavor. Effect: No negative effect was discovered during the audit. Repeat Finding: No. Recommendation: The Organization should transfer all funds to a financial institution that meets HUD guidelines. Action Taken: Nevins moved to this financial institution with the first HUD loan in 2015. This is a local bank that actively supports Nevins mission in the community. Given Nevins current financial struggles, the balance in the bank seldom exceeds the $250,000.00 threshold.
