We Continue to Jingle!

Arthritis is a serious and growing health crisis – impacting one in every five adults and an estimated 300,000 children. It’s America’s #1 cause of disability. The Arthritis Foundation’s Annual Jingle Bell Run aims to change those numbers. At Scherzer International we are continuing our efforts to raise funds for those affected by Arthritis.

This past Thursday, November 16, we had our first fundraiser for the 2017 Jingle Bell Run at The Stand. SI employees, their families and friends made their way over to The Stand and enjoyed some delicious items. From every purchase, 20% of the proceeds went to support SI’s fundraising goal which aims to raise funds and awareness for Arthritis. Thank you to The Stand Northridge and Woodland Hills location for the wonderful food and for supporting local community fundraiser’s like ours.

Everyone’s efforts are greatly appreciated. Thank you to anyone who has donated or maybe shared a social media post. If you would like to see us reach our fundraising goal and get a head start on your New Year’s Resolution by participating in The Jingle Bell Run just click here!

“Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell, Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to run with the Scherzer Fam today!”

The not-so-good deeds of a charitable organization director…

As part of a business transaction for an accounting firm, SI was engaged to investigate one of the most respected charitable organizations in the US. The organization itself showed many years of humanitarian service, but among its countless good deeds, SI uncovered the not-so-charitable actions of a former chapter director. In 2008, this individual was sentenced to six years in a federal prison following his conviction on 15 counts of fraud, money laundering and interstate transportation of stolen property. The fraud charges involved swindling an Ohio man out of more than $9 million in a bogus investment scheme.

Additionally, in 2006, the Utah Division of Securities had fined the subject $60,000 and obtained a default cease-and-desist order barring him from future acts of securities fraud in an unrelated matter. Court records also revealed that the subject had convictions for grand theft and forgery dating back to the 1980s. By employing a risk management strategy like our client’s, the charity would have avoided its association with a felon, and thus prevented significant expenses and continuing embarrassment.
