National Center research shows that only about half of family foundations have a conflict of interest policy. Yet conflicts often arise if, for example, a board or staff member volunteers for or serves on the board of a nonprofit that seeks funds from the foundation. Two of our speakers, Diana Gurieva, Executive Vice President and CEO of the Dyson Foundation, and Mary Mountcastle, a trustee of both the Mary Reynolds Babcock and Z. Smith Reynolds Foundations, will share how their foundations have dealt with conflicts of interest. They’ll be joined by Kelley Simone, Senior Staff Attorney at the Council on Foundations.

Teleconference Presenters:

Diana Gurieva, Executive Vice President and CEO, Dyson Foundation; Mary Mountcastle, Trustee, Mary Reynolds Babcock and Z. Smith Reynolds Foundations; and Kelley Simone, Senior Staff Attorney at the Council on Foundations
