It’s quite an honor to be asked to serve on a nonprofit board of directors. It’s also quite rewarding to give your time to a cause that you care deeply about. Before a nominating committee makes a request for a candidate to join a board, nonprofit boards will want to be sure that the candidate is a good fit for the position. When considering someone for a spot on a nonprofit board, it’s important to learn what the candidate has to offer your board.

In other words, the people with the least amount of money in this game wind up doubling down on what is probably an unfundable, problematic idea to begin with—because an investor said the only thing missing was tra
