Providing leadership for a non-profit organization such as a registered charity, church or not-for-profit corporation can be challenging. Often leadership is provided by volunteers, with limited time and, sometimes, limited expertise. As well, financial resources are often very limited and there is a reluctance to spend money on legal fees. However, fixing problems resulting from errors or omissions will likely be a lot more expensive than the costs of getting proper structures and procedures in place from the beginning.
