Affiliated Fund Governance

Good governance practices for your affiliated fund serve as the foundation for your activities.  Having all members of your Fund Advisory Committee (FAC) understand the relationship of your affiliated fund with NCF and establishing Articles of Operation and FAC member job descriptions help ensure the smooth management of day-to-day activities.  An established governance structure also is a key tool in recruiting new volunteers and giving prospective donors confidence that your FAC is a good steward of their contributions.

If this part of the country gets more RNs, everyone will benefit with better health.”
