This week we have been celebrating the incredible impact of charity trustees 🌍 Trustees' Week showcases the work of Trustees who volunteer their time, energy, and expertise to help charities thrive. It’s no secret that trustee recruitment is difficult and 1 in 3 charities have trustee vacancies. Finding the right trustees can be tough, but it's essential for a resilient charity.

Great article by Jonathan I. Shenkman, AIF® & Paul Kaplan, CFRE on year-end giving as well as a primer on non-annual vehicles for support, including bequests, Donor Advised Funds (DAFs), and Qualified Charitable Distributions form an IRA - especially if you have a required minimum distribution. Thanks for sharing!

Charity trustee disputes and the importance of resilient governance As with most relationships, no one ever thinks people are going to fall out until they do. When this happens amongst charity trustees, the consequences for a charity, its work and its beneficiaries can be significant, long-lasting, expensive and hugely disruptive. Jennifer Marley has written an article on this topic, in which she focuses on the recent high profile dispute at the Actors' Benevolent Fund and provides top tips on how to avoid disputes escalating within your charity. https://lnkd.in/efwVcqnV #charity #trusteedisputes #disputeresolution #charitydisputes #actorsbenevolentfund

Why volunteer? With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, the benefits of volunteering can be enormous. Volunteering offers vital help to people in need, worthwhile causes, and the community, but the benefits can be even greater for you, the volunteer. The right match can help you to find friends, connect with the community, learn new skills, and even advance your career. Giving to others can also help protect your mental and physical health. It can reduce stress, combat depression, keep you mentally stimulated, and provide a sense of purpose. While it’s true that the more you volunteer, the more benefits you’ll experience, volunteering doesn’t have to involve a long-term commitment or take a huge amount of time out of your busy day. Giving in even simple ways can help those in need and improve your health and happiness. If you would like to volunteer, we would love to hear from you 👇
