Event Refund Policy

1. Purpose
This policy provides clear guidelines for issuing refunds for AWWEE events, promoting transparency, consistency, and accountability in the handling of participant payments while protecting AWWEE’s financial interests.

2. Scope
This policy applies to all participants registering for AWWEE events, including workshops, conferences, seminars, and special programs.

3. General Refund Rules

Events $20 or less are non-refundable.
For events over $20, refunds may be issued upon request. A 10 percent credit card processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.
Refund requests must be submitted via email to AWWEE and received at least 72 hours before the event, unless otherwise stated.
Exceptions are only considered for non-refundable or special-deadline events described in Section 4 below.

4. Non-Refundable Events or Special Deadlines

Some events require advance payments for venues, catering, or other services, or have specific cancellation deadlines. These events will be clearly labeled as non-refundable or will specify a cancellation date at the time of registration.
Exceptions may be considered on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the Executive Committee, particularly for higher-cost events, and only in extenuating circumstances.
Participants automatically receive a full refund if AWWEE cancels or reschedules an event.

5. Donation Option

Participants who are unable to attend an event may choose to donate their registration fee to AWWEE instead of requesting a refund.
This option allows participants to support AWWEE’s mission while reducing administrative processing.

6. Refund Processing Procedure

Refunds will be issued to the original form of payment.
Eligible refunds will be processed within 15 business days of receiving the request.
AWWEE staff, under the direction of the Executive Director, is responsible for processing refunds in accordance with this policy.

7. Policy Posting

Refund and donation policies will be clearly displayed on all event registration pages.
Participants are responsible for reviewing and understanding the policy prior to registration.
