Page 3 Treasurer Update The Accounts transfer from the previous executive committee has not been executed yet. Though, “Ugadi 2012” held on May 12 2012 but we have not received income & expense report as of today. We have approached past treasurer and Past president to send the Ugadi Expense report prior to Account transfer to new executive committee. As soon as we finish the proper account transfer, I will communicate with the general body. As I promised at the time of elections, I work closely with the TAGDV executive committee., maintain accounts properly and file taxes on time., deposit Life membership fee in a Certificate of Deposit (CD) for a better interest rate., send Income and expense report to EC within a month after completion of each Program, update Executive Committee for every 5 new life members joined, include Membership database and Financial Balance sheet in the Newsletter and on the website for members to review.
