30 Note on Board Members (minnesotanonprofits.org) 3 Board member minimum (should be more) All board members should be personally committed to the mission of the organization, willing to volunteer sufficient time and resources to help achieve the mission of the organization, and understand and fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities. Nonprofit boards must have a chair and a treasurer. A vice-chair and secretary are highly suggested. The majority of the board should consist of members unrelated to each other or staff to allow for significant deliberation and diversity. Board membership should reflect the diversity of the organization's constituencies. Board members who are not employees should not receive compensation for their board service, other than reimbursement for expenses directly related to board duties. Nonprofit boards should hold quarterly meetings at a minimum. Board committees should be organized as needed to effectively structure member s roles and responsibilities.
