Its completely within the rights of the organization which has a labor resource
to get money for advertizing from a recruiter. In fact, there aren't many ways
of getting money for a non-profit which is imoral or illegal. There are, however,
tons of way in which how one spends the non-profits moneys you can get into ugly
moral issues and legal ones.
NYLXS's clear and precise charter and explicitly spelled our responsibilities and accounting
practices leaves us way above board.
