Overview

Mission

The Southeastern Province is a community service organization that is a liaison between local chapters within the province and the fraternitys national office and administration. The Province also provides leadership training and provides a platform for local chapters to address matters on a national level.

What it reported doing in 2024

Our annual meeting Province Council is the largest activity we had during the fiscal year when using total expenses as the primary measuring criteria. This is the meeting where all chapters within the Province are required to attend. The meeting allows each chapter an opportunity to vote on officers with the exception of the President who is appointed by the National President. The meeting also allows for nominations and voting service awards as well as bestowing awards on winners. The meeting also provides opportunities for by-law changes, policy and procedure changes and resolutions to be identifies and/or adopted. Chapter are also given the opportunity to voice their concerns about other fraternity business. At the meeting, chapters hear the president issue the state of the Province address, as well as the membership receives the annual report which highlightes activity expenses and revenues. Most revenue is generally from membership registration fees including those through Membership Training Academy which encompasses initiation fees which include registration for the Province Council Meeting.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
