TREASURER
Madame President, Vice President, Advisors, Officers, and fellow members, good evening.
My name is Sofia Ruales. I am a student of the Honors Program here at Essex County College.
I am here today to run for office. For the past year, I was amazed by the hard work and dedication of the officers and members of Alpha Theta Theta, and all their accomplishments and achievements in Essex County College and the community. I remember saying to myself, “I want to be a part of that organization. I want to make a difference too. I can’t wait to be inducted, because I CAN make a difference”. Well, today I stand before you and ask for your vote and support on becoming the next treasurer of Alpha Theta Theta. I chose to run for this position because I know I possess the qualities needed for this position. I am an honest, hardworking, dedicated, and responsible person who knows how to maximize a budget. My experience comes from hosting fundraisers such as bake sales for the National Honor Society, for which I held the position of Vice President. I also oversaw all fundraising events for the Latin American Student Organization of Plainfield High School, making each organization a financial success. Yet, some of my proudest moments in fundraising, is when I raised funds for the under-privileged in Ecuador, and also the Susan G. Koman foundation. I have met with the current treasurer on many occasions to ask and learn about her duties as the treasurer. I know it is a lot of work, but I am well prepared. I intend to expand our book-swap, bake sales, and t-shirt drive, in addition to including other fundraising events for this chapter such as raffles and candy sales. My skills give me the ability to ensure that enough money can be raised to send Phi Theta Kappa members to regional and international events. Besides being the treasurer, I will work assiduously with my fellow officers to create a Five Star Chapter as we compete for excellence, ensuring that our chapter, Alpha Theta Theta, succeed in developing our scholarship, fellowship, service, and leadership skills. My name is Sofia Ruales, and I am running for the position of Treasurer. Thank you.

I’ll bring innovative ideas to the table and try to make everything as efficient as possible, as I really do want to improve our chapter.

One thing that I should remind you of is that the president, the vice presidents, the secretary, and the treasurer all work together as a group. We’ll all try to make this year better for our Chapter, Alpha Theta Theta. We’ll try to work things out so our projects will be successful. Last but not least we’ll try to make Alpha Theta Theta live up to its expectation. So vote for me as your Treasurer Officer and I promise you that you will gain a trustworthy Kappan. Thank You.
