Title: No OUCH response
Post by chewy on Nov 21^st, 2006, 12:51pm

No reply to email so I'll ask here.

What happened to the items that didn't get auctioned at the convention?

I've asked about the finances several times and have yet to get an answer.

Guess we're on a "need to know basis" and the powers that be at OUCH don't think we "need to know".

Your question has been answered.

The items are stored and OUCH will auction said items through an Ebay type auction in the near future.

And what about financial reports?

The 2007 Budget and end of year reports are being prepared and will be released when finished.

What happened to the 2004 and 2005 financials? I followed IRS guidelines asking for them (even sent a check - which was not cashed - to pay for copying, as per IRS regs). I've not heard anything at all and that was back in 2005.

Personally, I think it's time OUCH gave an accounting to its members

I haven't been able to donate my Time nor money to O.U.C.H. this year or last year. I am truely sorry I haven't. If I ever have time or ever have the extra money. O.U.C.H. will be the Org I give to. I read every post on OUCH and see things being done. I see the officers and BOD doing but what I don't see is lots of support. To me thats a shame. I am sure some are like me and can not right now. There are how many clusterheads here?
Thanks Bill for the answers to the questions. If there is ever anything I can do to help just let me know. Keep up the good work. I wasn't at the OUCH convention but I could tell it was the best ever.
Thanks for all the work !

I don't think it's too much to ask for a Treasurer's report periodically -- it's been done since OUCH as established. MEMBERS like to know where their "donated" money is going and how it's being spent.
