The Nonprofit Alliance of Bermuda’s mission is to strengthen and unify nonprofits to meet the needs of Bermuda’s communities. NAB is dedicated to strengthening, unifying, and championing nonprofits in Bermuda. We do this by providing training and capacity building services, offering certification and accreditation, facilitating collaboration and network building, and coordinating access to information and resources.

Complaints Procedures
Should you need to file a complaint regarding any Nonprofit Alliance staff, contractor or Board member, you should direct the grievance to the Executive Director or, if it involves the Executive Director, to the Chair of the Board of Directors within one month of the occurrence of the grievance. If the grievance remains unresolved, you may appeal to the Board of Directors. In cases of alleged sexual harassment or physical threats, you have the right to complain directly to the Chair of the Board of Directors for a final determination. Nonprofit Alliance has an Anti-Harassment Policy to further guide this process.
