Listen "Money Instead of Things"
Episode Synopsis
What is it about donors that make them want to give you the stuff in their garage instead of the sweet, sweet cash that we desperately need? We’ve got some ideas! (Spoiler: Andy mentions agency theory again.) Also this week, we delve into the Byzantine hellscape that is municipal code to determine exactly what to put on a single line of a required form. And Stacey provides some clarity on a technical board question about majorities.
Topics:
Is it okay if a board committee includes a majority of the whole board? – 0:00
What charitable purpose do we put on our business license application? 10:40
How do we get donors to start giving us money instead of used items? 18:39
