Why Nonprofit Fraud Goes Undetected and How Boards Can Stop It

Nonprofit fraud is an issue that leaders cannot afford to ignore, even though it is often uncomfortable to discuss. In this episode, Michael speaks with Jeff Limbocker, a longtime healthcare CFO and current COO of Sarasota Memorial Health Care System, about how fraud actually occurs in nonprofit organizations and what can be done to reduce the risk. Drawing on decades of experience, Jeff explains why fraud often begins small, why expense reporting is a common vulnerability, and why auditors do not typically uncover these issues. This conversation offers practical insights for nonprofit board members, executives, and finance leaders who want to strengthen oversight, protect donor trust, and build more effective internal controls.
