Charity in Motions - Renee Kumor - Bog

"As helpful a book about the world of nonprofit boards as you'll ever come across ..."
- Shirrel Rhoades, Board President, KWAHS Custom House Museum

Most communities rely on services provided by nonprofit organizations: a shelter for victims of domestic violence; safe afterschool programs; emergency support for victims of fire or flood from the American Red Cross and local groups; and social need support from groups such as food pantries and homeless shelters.
In addition local nonprofits augment the life of a community through arts and theater programs as well as support for the local libraries, museums and schools. There is always support to be found for animals and the environment as well. In fact, many of us find ourselves ready and willing to support an array of local nonprofits because of the work they do in addressing concerns close to us.
This book does not address issues that relate to multimillion-dollar agencies, but to the challenges faced locally by staff and board members - from bylaws to human resource issues to the always necessary fundraising.
