It has never been harder to be a director of a not for profit (NFP) organisation than it is today. Unlike their for-profit cousins, directors of NFP’s are generally unpaid and do it for the love of the cause and/or to give something back to society. However, the same risks exist for NFP directors as they do for their for-profit counterparts. Legally the duty of care remains, and the potential for reputational risk is as high in NFP’s as they are in for-profit boardrooms.
