Accountability

Our responsibility to you

As a charitable organization, St. Boniface Hospital Foundation must earn the trust of our donors and other community stakeholders.

Our focus on accountability also includes meeting the standards and following the guidelines of the Association of Fundraising Professionals and the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy.

Board compensation

Board members are volunteers – accomplished and respected community members who give their time, talents, and expertise to help guide the Foundation. Complying with our Board bylaws and best practice, Board members receive no remuneration, nor do they directly or indirectly benefit from serving on the board. Here is a statement of instances in the past 12 months when the Foundation paid for services or products of companies with direct links to a board member. In each instance, the board member remained at arm’s length, per St. Boniface Hospital Foundation’s Conflict-of-Interest Policy .
