injure the Foundation by definition. Denny is quite correct that trustees
have a legal obligation to put the Foundation before anything else, however
there's usually a fair bit of latitude in how that obligation is
interpreted.
This is effectively my view. Trustees have an unavoidable fiduciary
duty to the Foundation - it's the law, and it brings with it certain
responsibilities. First among those responsibilities is to recognize
and support the ecosystem of editors, GLAM folks, chapters, staff,
fellow traveler organizations, readers, etc. which makes that possible.
