What is a NGO Board Resolution?
A board resolution records a decision taken by the governing body or trustees of an NGO, trust or society at a meeting — for example to open a bank account, authorise a signatory, approve a budget or accept a donation.
Banks, registrars and funders ask for a certified true copy of the relevant resolution as proof that the organisation, not just an individual, has taken the decision.
When to use it
- Opening or changing signatories on the organisation’s bank account.
- Authorising someone to sign documents or apply for registrations on the organisation’s behalf.
- Approving a major decision such as buying property or accepting a large grant.
