Finding Text

2024-003 Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Condition The Organization did not prepare a Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (“SEFA”) for the year ended December 31, 2024. Criteria Per the 2 CFR 200.510(b), auditees must prepare a SEFA for the period covered by the financial statements. Cause The Organization did not have adequate internal controls in place or assign responsibility for preparing the SEFA. Effect Without the SEFA the auditee was not in compliance with the Uniform Guidance reporting requitements. Recommendation We recommend that management establish and implement procedures to ensure that all federal expenditures are identified, tracked, and summarized timely. The auditee should assign responsibility to a qualified individual to prepare the SEFA and reconcile it to the underlying accounting records. Managements Response The Organization has reorganized its management team and accounting functions. We have implemented policies and procedures in order to prepare the SEFA. Status Corrective action has been taken.

Corrective Action Plan

We have employed a third-party accounting firm to review and reconcile the accounting records and post necessary bookkeeping entries. Additionally, we have re-organized management and responsibility to ensure timely and effective record keeping. This will ensure timely preparation of the SEFA and we will submit the SEFA to the auditor.
