The volunteer board of directors is the governing arm of a nonprofit organization and is legally required for tax-exempt organizations and corporations. The board has four officers: chair, vice-chair, treasurer and secretary. Each officer has a job description that details its duties and responsibilities as prescribed by the organization’s bylaws. The treasurer’s duties involve oversight of fiscal matters.
Care, Loyalty and ObedienceAccording to BoardSource, an organization that focuses on training for nonprofit boards, care, loyalty and obedience define the board's legal responsibility. Care refers to competence and reasonable care, while loyalty and obedience refer to honoring the organization’s mission, respecting confidentiality and being mindful of the public’s trust. For the treasurer, this translates into ensuring the organization is a good steward of charitable donations and the tax-exempt status, providing oversight of the organization’s fiscal integrity and assisting the board in meeting its mandate to govern.
General KnowledgeThe treasurer is required to attend all scheduled meetings and maintain current knowledge of the organization, its programs, bylaws and articles of incorporation. The treasurer is required to have knowledge of nonprofit accounting practices, nonprofit tax laws and fiscal record keeping. The treasurer is knowledgeable about committee management and rules for conducting board meetings.

Mission Statement
Las Vegas Wheelchair Basketball Foundation’s (LVWBF) mission is to build a community of adaptive athletes in the Las Vegas Valley (which includes Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Henderson, and Boulder City) by promoting and equipping adaptive sports teams. We believe that adaptive sports are the best therapy for the lifelong recovery process following a life-changing injury or disease/disorder diagnosis. Not only will adaptive athletes find a competitive outlet, but they will be surrounded by a community that will help maximize their independence. LVWBF is convinced it is not only possible but necessary for those with physical challenges to get out of the house and do more and be more active and engaged than they ever were before their injuries or disease/disorder diagnosis.
Description
