Bucks CF's Stories

Our Treasurer's Story by Bill McDonald

"Having retired from a career in International Banking, I was asked to join the other originating Trustees tasked by the late Sir Nigel Mobbs with setting up the Community Foundation for Buckinghamshire.  Volunteering is all about being committed and having the time to dedicate to the challenge and I have found that the role has created a momentum that means I have to be aware of the obligations of the position.

My responsibilities are to the donors in ensuring that their generosity is used to benefit the worthy cause to the greatest possible degree, meeting the statutory and regulatory needs of the Foundation, and ensuring that the cash reserves are always sufficient, and that the organisation's finances are run in a timely manner."
