Chartering
Each volunteer group will be chartered through the Office of Volunteer Development. The only exception to this is a group that has a memorandum of agreement with Texas Extension. The chartering process ensures that each group will meet the minimum requirements of an association partner with Texas Extension. Charter applications are submitted to county Extension offices and then forwarded to the appropriate department or unit. The minimum standards include

  • by-laws, which must contain a dissolution clause;
  • officers, (at minimum a president, vice president, secretary and treasurer);
  • committees that support the goals and purposes of the association; and
  • a commitment to using best practices for financial management according to the guidelines outlined by Texas Extension (http://tce-employees.tamu.edu/frm/)
