The Quakake Volunteer Fireman’s Relief Association – Schuylkill County – Audit Period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2023

A compliance audit of The Quakake Volunteer Fireman’s Relief Association was conducted for the period from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2023. The audit aimed to assess corrective actions from previous findings and ensure compliance with applicable laws and procedures concerning state aid and fund expenditure. While the association largely complied with requirements, a notable finding was the inadequate documentation of meeting minutes and outdated bylaws. Specifically, the association held fewer meetings than mandated and maintained bylaws referencing outdated legislation. The audit recommends the association hold all required meetings, update its bylaws to reflect current legal standards, and maintain detailed records. The officials acknowledged the findings, and the report includes their responses and recommendations for corrective actions. This ensures future compliance and proper governance according to the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Association Act.
