To protect our organization from scammers, fraud, and individuals with harmful intentions, we have implemented this communication and verification system. In the past, we spent significant time dealing with people who had no genuine purpose other than creating problems or attempting scams. To prevent this and protect our work, we now require clear information from anyone who contacts us. This helps ensure that individuals interacting with our organization have sincere intentions. If someone misuses the system or breaches their responsibilities, we will have the necessary information to address the situation appropriately.

We have also received many applications without proper contact information or clear methods of communication. As a nonprofit organization, we must maintain the highest standards of communication, transparency, and accountability, especially for individuals applying for leadership or executive-level roles.

Unfortunately, we do not have the luxury of dedicating hundreds of hours communicating with individuals who may not have a genuine intention to participate in nonprofit work or who may not yet understand the responsibilities involved. To avoid this loss of valuable time and resources, we created a clear and open system that is accessible to everyone. All the necessary information is available, and individuals can move forward with the process once they understand the mission and are ready to participate and support it.

Nonprofit work is closely connected to personal values and beliefs. It often grows from a deep commitment to community, family values, education, compassion, and a vision for improving society and the world. If someone does not yet share or understand these principles, participating effectively in nonprofit leadership can be difficult. For this reason, we strongly encourage individuals to learn, study, and understand the mission of nonprofit organizations before becoming involved.

At the same time, we always encourage people to grow through education, learning, and community engagement. If you are already aligned with this mission, we congratulate and welcome your commitment to service. If you are still exploring or learning, we encourage you to continue educating yourself and return when you feel ready to contribute meaningfully.

“I’d like to join the Fix Mission.”

Once we receive your message, a member of our team will contact you to speak with you directly.

Thank you for your interest in joining FIX Organization. Helping people is essential to humanity, and we sincerely appreciate your willingness to serve.

You have applied for an executive-level position within our nonprofit organization, either as a board member or another leadership role, depending on organizational needs. This is a critical position and is very different from roles in traditional business or corporate structures.

Serving in this capacity may require significant commitment and, at times, personal sacrifice. Participation in this structure is not based on financial capacity. Some individuals with access to substantial financial resources may not be able to participate under this model, while individuals without financial means—but with strong passion, integrity, and dedication to community service—may participate without restriction. However, this role carries serious responsibilities and requires meaningful contribution and accountability.

Board candidates that seek a position on the board of directors of nonprofit organizations are typically passionate about the organization that they want to serve. It’s important that all board members of nonprofit organizations understand the legal responsibilities that they hold relative to their positions on the board. Failing to fulfill their responsibilities according to the law may have dire consequences to the individual, as well as to the organization.

A nonprofit board oversees the organization’s assets and makes sure that the nonprofit is on sound financial footing. Active oversight includes watching over the organization’s operations and people. The board has responsibility for maintaining legal and ethical accountability for its staff and volunteers.

The Three D’s

The principles of non-profit corporation law are well established. All board members must meet certain standards of conduct and pay strict attention to their individual and collective responsibilities to the organization and its members. Individual states may have their own laws regarding legal responsibilities of board members that serve on nonprofit boards. Nonprofit board members should be aware of any state laws that affect their position on the board. In addition to state laws, the legal duties of nonprofit board members are defined nicely as “the three D’s,” which include duty of care, the duty of loyalty, and the duty of obedience.

Duty of Care

Board members use their own judgment to participate in decision-making on behalf of the organization. The responsibility for making informed judgments lies with the board member, which means they need to secure facts and ask questions to get clarity of the issues. Duty of care also means that board members should seek out independent professional advice when decisions relate to buying or selling significant assets or when entering into material contracts.

The Office of Inspector General and the American Health Lawyers Associations state that board members are responsible for two facets of legal compliance with regard to duty of care:

1.  To ensure that an information and reporting system exists

2.  The reporting system is adequate to flag board members in a timely manner when the organization is threatened by legal concerns

3.   

Duty of Loyalty

Having a duty of loyalty means that board members must cast aside any personal or professional interests and place the interests of the non-profit ahead of them. Loyalty also means respecting the confidentiality of the organization’s affairs by not disclosing them to outside individuals in a way that leads to loss of opportunity for the organization.

Duty of Obedience

Board members have the responsibility for making sure that the organization complies with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations. It also means that board members should remain faithful to the organization’s vision and mission.
