==== Board of Trustees ====
==== Board of Governors ====
The Board of Trustees is a group of individuals either appointed or elected to manage and govern the assets of the Vinish Red Cross. The board's utmost duty is to protect the organization's best interests through decisions made on its behalf.

Generally, trustees don't receive compensation for their service, but if they receive compensation, the structure of payment should be included in the bylaws. All such rules concerning the board of trustees must also be in full compliance with state laws that govern organizations.

===== Trustee Responsibilities =====
===== Governors Responsibilities =====
One of the board of trustees' primary responsibilities is to uphold the fiduciary duty to protect all of the organization's assets and funds in trust. The overarching fiduciary duty includes the duties of care, obedience, and loyalty, which means that a trustee must place the organization's interests above their own when making decisions on behalf of the organization.

Trustees, then, must avoid conflicts of interest as much as possible and should disclose any information that could suggest self-dealing. For example, if the board is deciding whether a contract should be awarded to a particular vendor, none of the trustees should hold an interest in that vendor. Such intermingling of affairs would likely be an unacceptable conflict of interest even if other board members sign off on it.

While fulfilling its fiduciary duty, the board manages its affairs and makes decisions to protect the stakeholders' best interests. Such decisions may include how to invest assets, the choice of institutional manager, and the pursuit of specific investment options.

While day-to-day management of the organization is usually more the responsibility of staff, volunteers, and other management, the board of trustees focuses on larger and broader decisions that affect the organization. Such issues may include the organization's overall mission and direction and other strategic planning matters.
