About This Audit
The compliance audit of the Friendship Fireman’s Relief Association of Hallam, PA, covered the period from January 1, 2021, to December 31, 2023. The audit aimed to verify if the association addressed prior audit findings and complied with relevant state laws and regulations regarding state aid and fund expenditures. The audit confirmed appropriate corrective actions were taken for past issues and general compliance was achieved, with one exception: the association failed to utilize its sales tax exemption, resulting in $1,212 paid unnecessarily. Recommendations were made to seek reimbursement and ensure future compliance. The report was shared with the management, who agreed with the findings and started corrective measures.
