    This is very needed and serves as a complement to government, which has been doing its best to assist non-profits and charity organisations. The BVI Cancer Society, for example, gets a $20,000 cheque every year from government. I know it's not enough but it helps. Well done Campbells for this wise and brilliant initiative!

    Funds are always helpful. However, with all the onerous government requirements for compliance what non profits can really use is compliance officers. Compliance might be easy for some, but for those not blessed with law degrees it can often be challenging. Compliance can also be time consuming, so finding volunteers to help with this can also be a challenge. Then we have the issue of volunteers having to apply a Police Certificate. I guess because people who raise funds to help with a child's medical bills, or help other non profits to do their work, might be participating in money laundering and terrorist financing. Meanwhile some of the people signing off on these laws are breaking laws left and right. It can be quite galling. And don't get me wrong. I understand compliance from years of having to deal with it already. But the requirements keep getting ramped up, time constraints, threats of penalties, all because some folks did the wrong things, or were perceived to be doing the wrong things and so instead of them being penalized people in the community, from the Guides to the churches and all non profits in between, are now being penalized. It's all well and good to say Rotary has to provide these things as well but look at the disparity between their organization and something like the Girl Guides where the membership may not be as filled with "professionals" in the compliance regime.
