Session Overview
As part of our yearly policy review, we drafted a Stabilization Fund Policy and Investment Policy. Our primary concern is to ensure that we have accurate and up-to-date information on reserve funding for charitable organizations for our Stabilization Fund Policy and if we are required to adhere to any Trusteeship laws and regulations for our Investment Policy. We are looking for someone with finance experience in the nonprofit sector.
