Being a nonprofit leader, and especially a board member, is a big responsibility. This second edition of Linking Mission to Money (R) is full of tools and resources that make that role more manageable and personally rewarding. Allen says "the benefit and the liability of being a board member lies with each member of the board. This book is intended to help volunteers satisfy their commitment by explaining finance as the core of a holistic approach to fulfilling board responsibility." Written specifically for non-financial experts, Linking Mission to Money uses conversational style and short, digestible chapters discussing planning, priorities and sustaining mission through adversity.
