VIRTUAL EVENT:
Nonprofit Compliance, Governance, & Ethics:
Tools to Keep Yourself and Your Organization Safe and Thriving

As nonprofit professionals and volunteers, we’re committed to doing good and helping others. We often believe everyone involved in our sector lives by the same moral and ethical codes. Unfortunately, nonprofits aren’t immune to internal or external threats. When was the last time you thought about your bylaws? What about your data security policies and practices? What controls do you have in place to protect your organization against fraud or embezzlement? Have you implemented new state and federal laws impacting nonprofits in 2023?

Thousands of organizations haven’t been in compliance with government standards. Don’t be one of them! Your nonprofit status is not an excuse or a “get out of trouble pass.”
 

Join us on Friday, February 10 for a Zoom program with Anne Davis East, a forward-thinking, social innovator with more than 30 years of nonprofit experience and expertise, and Amanda Flowers, Founder of Produce of Love. Anne and Amanda will walk us through important nonprofit management, compliance, governance, and ethics topics to reduce your organization’s compliance risks, unforeseen or otherwise.

Panelists:

Anne Davis East, Founder & CEO, Davis East Consulting

Amanda Flowers, Founder, Produce of Love

Amanda is the founder of Produce of Love. She has always had an innate desire to do something more; to help others and to make the world a much better place. Prior to framing, she served in the military as a water purification specialist; returning home injured, she aspired to be a farmer. Amanda's first attempt at farming failed. It seemed like the darkest times of her life. While she was pondering what had happened, a vision was revealed -- every town should have a system of shared farms. She is determined to implement an online platform to connect, educate, and share resources; to create solutions that ensure the food security of every community.
