The sentence is correct. "Staff" is a collective nown- plural in meaning but singular in form. For one staff, the possessive form is pronounced "stafs," not "stafsiz." It is of course possible to have more than one staff: "As an administrator in two organizations, he has two staffs." One staff is one group of workers. I think you are referring here to one staff.

Our non-profit uses STAFF to equally value and include employees, volunteers, and members (members raise support).
