Ethical Standards
Army
Emergency Relief is committed to maintaining good
corporate governance. As such, we voluntarily comply
with the provisions of The Public Company Accounting
Reform and Investor Protection Act of 2002, commonly
referred to as the Sarbanes – Oxley Act (SOX).
Although most of the provision of this legislation do
not apply to nonprofit organizations, we believe that
our voluntary compliance demonstrates and reinforces our
commitment to integrity, competence, and fiduciary
responsibility in managing Soldiers’ money.
Of
particular interest to our web site visitors is the AER
Code of Ethical Conduct, wherein we spell out our
principles for dealing with U.S. Army soldiers and their
family members.
We
encourage all who are associated with AER to report
breaches of this policy and any occurrences of
misconduct, fraud, and abuse by AER employees or Board
members, and U.S. Army employees acting on AER’s
behalf. We have established an independent, third
party, anonymous reporting system to receive and process
reports of violations of our policies and ethical
conduct.
Reports of misconduct, fraud, and
abuse may be registered with SilentWhistle, LLP at
telephone number 1-877-874-8416 or on line at
https://aer.silentwhistle.com
Any person
registering a complaint should be aware of the AER
Whistleblower Protection Policy.
