@gardner @brixbounty @lishousesq4rz @javabu.eth seriously thank you all for the replies. For the most part, your answers were aligned to my assumptions so I suppose that’s good. I wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something non obvious before taking next steps. Appreciate you guys 🙏🙏

Understood! One non-obvious thing I heard from someone else is non-profit board seats often come with fundraising requirements - i.e. you have to commit to raising a certain amount, whether from outside donors or you own pocket.

You're welcome! best luck on your decision. One thing to add is to also consider the fiduciary duty you would have, and if you have any concerns about how the organization is being run. 
PS none of this should be construed as legal advice
