“Exploring the Inner Workings of a Nonprofit Organization: Insights from a Girl Scout Employee”
.Hello all! I interviewed a friend of mine who has worked for girl’s scout which is a nonprofit organization
What did you learn as the result of the interview?
Through the interview I learned that the mission of this organization is to build up the confidence of girls. It is a group of likeminded people wanting to work together with younger girls to accomplish that. There is a lot that goes into building up, funding and running a nonprofit organization. Theres a lot of planning, fundraisers and ideas that goes into it and its not as simple as it may seem.
What is the role of the board of directors?
The person I interviewed opted not to answer this question. However, upon searching this question this is what I found. Along with the CEO and the Executive Team, GSUSA’s Board of Directors guides the organization in the planning, development, and execution of initiatives and resources to benefit a diverse group of girls, volunteers, and staff across the nation—and the world. (Girl’s Scouts-leadership).
What was the agency’s knowledge of current trends in human services? Do you believe the agency is meeting current trends in human services? Please explain.
The organization works hard to stay on top of current trends and works on offering programs and opportunities to educate our members and families. They previously offered a community-based program called the FAB Factor that was offered in targeted communities such as Lowell, Lynn, Lawrence. These communities were identified to have high school dropouts and high pregnancy. The program we delivered was focused on Health and Wellness, STEM, Financial Literacy and leadership. I believe the agency is staying on top of current trends by always shifting things and staying informed and involved. They seem to be open to new ideas to better the organization.
Provide one example of how the agency adheres to legal and ethical human services standards in its decision-making processes related to budgeting and/or funding.
This question was also not answered in the interview. However, she did mention that they have a CFO and Accounting department which I assume stay on top of things like this and reviews and audits. -
