Students' Auditors for Financial Efficacy - SAFE

02/12/2023

We say goodbye to a former SAFE Commissioner and a wonderful friend, Ms. Avocate Awis, whose warmth, laughter, and unshakable companionship have brightened the chapters of our lives. A deep sadness lingers in the silent corners of our hearts. We are unable to understand the emptiness that someone's departure has left behind as we struggle with the weight of loss.

We prefer to remember you with the fondness that comes with remembering wonderful times spent together, rather than with tears of grief, even though your absence has left a shadow on the map of our lives. Every win, every hug, and even the difficulties we overcame as a team bears witness to the strength of the relationship we were privileged to have with you.

Farewell, our beloved Avocate. Even though you are no longer with us, your legacy will carry on in our lives forever. May you find comfort in the arms of eternity and may those who were fortunate enough to call you a friend hear the echo of your laughter in their hearts. Until we meet again.

Greetings!

Due to the crisis arising from the CoViD-19 pandemic, we have experienced difficulties in terms of our academics and extracurricular activities. We, the SAFE Commission admit to our own shortcomings and lackings in devising a concrete plan in upholding our duties and responsibilities. We humbly apologize for the inconvenience we may have brought.

Nevertheless, organization officers of mandated, accredited and student publications can submit their audit requirements for the 2nd Semester AY 2019-2020 on September 18, 2020, 9:30 AM ground floor of the Student Center.

As control, we shall STRICTLY follow safety protocols and guidelines; officers should wear facemasks/ face shields, use their own pens, and observe social distancing. Further, the SAFE Commission WILL ALLOW ONLY ONE (1) representative per organization to submit their requirements/ have their clearances signed to minimize unnecessary contact.

Audit requirements as per SASSO are as follows:
✔3 Copies Financial Statements
✔Original Transaction Documents (Receipts/ Invoices, cut off date June 15, 2020)
✔Cash Vouchers
✔Accomplished Journal
✔Approved Operational Plans (can be photocopied)
✔Roster of Members (Masterlist)
✔Passbook/Bankbook (for orgs with bank accounts)

Kindly compile them in an envelope/ expanded envelope labelled with your organization's name and contact number of the representative. The SAFE Commission encourages organizations to submit their COMPLETE requirements to avoid audit delay (especially for orgs with graduating students). Upon submission, the commissioners will do their best to fast track the audit of these documents.

As for clearances (especially graduates), signatories will be done once the org is clear from accountabilities (priority audit). Certifications will be sent online to your representative's email accounts (transmittal will be forwarded to SGOA).

For the widest dissemination. For inquiries, kindly contact your designated auditors. Thank you and God bless.

Good day!

Clearance for student formations and organizations in the SAFE Commission for the AY 2019-2020 will be continued upon opening of classes (September 07, 2020).

Organizations who are not yet cleared for the 1st Sem of AY 2019-2020 are requested to submit their audit requirements; 3 copies FS, OP's, roster of members and transaction documents and accountable forms (cut-off December 13, 2019).

As for the 2nd Sem of AY 2019-2020, organizations are requested to submit their audit requirements, cut-off on June 15, 2020. Due to the implementation of blended learning, cut-off will be upon the end of the semester June 15, 2020 as there are student orgs with approved activities during this period of ECQ. Regardless, consideration will be given, provided the honest justification and documentation of said transactions.

For the widest dissemination. Kindly share or mention your respective org officers. Thank you.

Edit: Organizations can submit their requirements starting Sept 7. No definite deadline as for now but orgs are encouraged to submit theirs as early as they can. We'll do our best to fast track the audit of these documents.

Good day! Just a quick reminder. The deadline of the submission of Financial Statements for the First Semester as per Memo is on December 13, 2019. Since there will be no office tomorrow (UNP Family Day), SAFE Commissioners might not be around. But you can still submit your FS until next week (December 21) since the SAFE Commissioners will still be around that period.

Kindly contact your designated auditors for inquiries. We deeply apologize for the inconveniences.

Thank you and good day.
