Follow up Discussion about
Policy Regarding Staff Serving on Boards
At the March meeting, the board discussed a Policy Regarding Staff Serving on Boards and
Fundraising. The following two concerns were raised with regard to the proposed policy:
1. There may be an HR problem with requiring staff to notify CFNF when serving on a
board of their church or religious institution. Staff, Skip and Martin were asked to follow
up regarding this question. After consultation, staff and Martin suggest eliminating the
“notice” requirement altogether avoiding any possible HR concerns. The policy has been
revised so that staff may serve on and fundraise for their religious institution with no
permission or notice requirement.
2. With regard to fundraising, we should allow a de minimis amount of up to $1,000. The
board approved this amendment at the March meeting. Staff revised the policy to include
this exception.
The Revised Policy follows this cover page for the board’s consideration and approval.
