Session 5 Final Presentation

You are the Executive Director of a nonprofit organization. At the next board meeting you will be introducing three new members to the Board of Directors. To help them prepare for the roles, you are to create a PowerPoint presentation in which you will cover their major responsibilities. Explain these responsibilities, their importance to the organization, and why the new board members need to take these responsibilities very seriously.

In your presentation, at a minimum, include the following:

• Explain the difference between a nonprofit organization and a tax-exempt organization addressing IRS requirements for acquiring and maintaining a 501 (c)(3) status.
• Distinguish the role of a board member as opposed to an officer in the organization including their fiduciary responsibilities.
