Council Of Nonprofits: How To Build An Effective Nonprofit Board: A Parable About Nonprofit Board Leadership (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798507845323)

A nonprofit organization (NPO), also known as a non-business entity, not-for-profit organization, or nonprofit institution, is a legal entity organized and operated for a collective, public or social benefit, in contrast with an entity that operates as a business aiming to generate a profit for its owners.
This book is for those who may be new to serving on a nonprofit board, or who may be wondering, "Why don't we accomplish anything?" It is definitely for nonprofits who have "challenges" raising money.
Fundraising is 90% preparation. A secret to that preparation is the care and nurturing of the board's culture and accountability. None of this comes naturally or easily. If you've been a member of a highly functioning organization, you know what a "great board" is all about. But many of us don't have that experience - and too often, our executive directors or CEOs don't have it either!
