Family on your Board of Directors? | Starting A Nonprofit [Video]

Starting a Nonprofit? Should family members serve on your Board of Directors? Let’s discuss. #Nonprofit #Nonprofits #BoardOfDirectors

This is a question I hear on occasion. How do you find board members – and can members of your family join your board? The answer is not so cut and dry.

If you are starting a nonprofit, thinking about it, or have just started a nonprofit, or KNOW someone who is trying to start a nonprofit, I hope this helps!
