The Assistant Vice President of Finance:. As the Assistant Vice President of Finance, you are a member of the Executive Board and are a part of a team working to accomplish a sub-goal (promoting and maintaining the Financial well-being of our organization) within La Raza.  As The Assistant VP of Finance, you are responsible for bringing fund-raising ideas to the board, you should attend all Executive Meetings, and you should work closely with the Vice President of Finance in order to help him/her with his/her organizational responsibilities.  It is important for you, the Executive Officer and the other assistants to work closely as a team.  In the event that the VP of Finance is unavailable to attend an event or a meeting, the President and Executive Vice President will have you make decisions on his/her behalf.

For additional info on what you and the Vice President of Finance will be expected to work on, please read the following:


The Role of the Vice President of Finance & Development: The Vice President of Finance is an important figure of the organization.  He or she is responsible for coordinating with the Executive Vice President to approve financial transactions presented by other officers, but more importantly, the Vice President of Finance and Development and his/her assistants are responsible for identifying and coordinating fund raising activities. 

**Management of Organizational Finances - La Raza is not a programming organization; therefore, the role of the Vice President of Finance is more supervisory and administrative when compared to financial officers of other organizations.  Our Vice President of Finance and Development should take a conservative approach to the organization's finances - accounting for every dollar that enters La Raza.  Additionally, the VP of Finance and Development should adhere to all fiscal policies and procedures established by the University of Delaware's Activities and Programs Office, keep an account of all receipts and expenditures, allocate money when appropriate, and maintain an updated balance sheet.

**Organizational Development - The VP of Finance and Development is expected to coordinate with his/her team of assistants to produce fund raising opportunities for the organization.  Fundraising is important because it allows us to attend conferences and successfully host a retreat out of state.

For any additional guidelines or advice, please feel free to contact La Raza Alumni, Past Presidents, or the Board of Directors of La Raza In Action.  Once again, congratulations on your accomplishments and please, call on the Alumni for support if and when you need it.
