Nonprofit Radio: Legal Issues Related to Volunteers

Volunteer Charity and Relief Work Donation Help Concept

I’ll be on Nonprofit Radio speaking with host Tony Martignetti this Friday at 10:30 am PT / 1:30 pm ET discussing volunteers and the legal issues nonprofits must consider when working with volunteers. You can tune in to the live feed on Talking Alternative or catch up later on iTunes.

We’ll be talking about:

  • Liability for acts of your volunteers
  • Protecting your organization
  • Protecting your volunteers
