In an ideal world, nonprofit organizations implement an effective record-keeping system for their important documents. Sometimes, however, through changes in data storage systems, leadership, or pure accident, record-keeping becomes haphazard and important documentation is lost. This article discusses how nonprofit organizations can find five key documents they should always have on record.
As the linchpin of a nonprofit, the executive director is tasked with translating the organization’s mission into action and managing day-to-day operations. But what role does the board of directors play in ensuring accountability while maintaining a collaborative partnership? And how can board members navigate the fine line between oversight and overreach? In this episode of the PBPA Podcast, Alan Rosselot with Delta Air Lines and Justine Cowan with PBPA discuss how the fiduciary duties of board members apply when overseeing the executive director.
QUICK TIP
Don’t forget to renew your business license for 2025. If you are in the City of Atlanta, renew at ATLCORE by February 15. Your nonprofit will need to provide a copy of your most recent financial documents. Notarized E-Verify and S.A.V.E. affidavits are no longer required for renewals.
