Standards for Excellence Introduction

John D. Baker,CFRE, MPA - DANA Executive Director
The Standards for Excellence (SFX) Introduction will review the program which provides guidelines, policies, procedures, and benchmarks for determining how well your organization is fulfilling its obligations to those who benefit from its programs. This session will answer your questions about SFX and give you a roadmap to start planning on your organization’s implementation of the Standards for Excellence and Certification. This course will prepare you for the “Two Day Standards for Excellence Clinic Series” that will be offered December 1st and 2nd, 2010. The Clinic Series will take your Executive Director, a staff member (COO), and a leader board member through the whole process so that you are familiar enough with it to start your own implementation and certification process.

Board Excellence

John D. Baker,CFRE, MPA - DANA Executive Director
This program was designed to highlight the most important issues of board governance universal to small and large nonprofits alike. Mara will discuss board legal and social accountability, roles and responsibilities of individual members and full boards, and tools for planning and evaluation. Principles for sound financial management and the role of the board as "employer" will also be addressed along with board development issues. To get the most out of this program, two board members and one senior level staff member should participate - staff members are discouraged from attending alone.

Fundraising Regulations

John D. Baker,CFRE, MPA - DANA Executive Director
Did you know that the state requires a permit for charitable poker tournaments, raffles, bingo, or other similar events? Do you know what forms you are required to make available for public inspection? Are you soliciting in more than one state? In this training, you will learn how to make sure your fundraising efforts are above board and legal, complying with an extensive array of federal, state, and local laws. We’ll discuss tax deductibility, giving receipts, and required disclosure statements on solicitations. You’ll leave with “Disclose It!”, DANA’s packet of information on fundraising rules and regulations.
