Board Recruitment Reception

Tuesday, April 26, 5:30pm-7:30pm

In recognition of the importance of having a continuing flow of new Board members who bring fresh energy and perspective to the table, John Crawford and David Newton are conducting a training course on best governance practices for a cohort of 20 young professionals who are interested in volunteer leadership opportunities. Their skill sets include legal matters, finance, fundraising, technology, marketing, and community organizing.  

At this reception, seated Board Chairs (or a Board alternate) will meet these individuals to learn more about them and their board service interests. This will also be an opportunity for the cohort to learn about your organization. We will pull information from your giveGreater.org® profile so the young people can familiarize themselves with your work.
Please RSVP no later than Wednesday, April 13 and indicate who will be attending. Space is limited for this event to 30 nonprofit organizations.
Board Chair Roundtables

Wednesday, June 8, 8:00am-10:00am 
for well-structured, experienced Boards
Tuesday, June 14, 8:00am-10:00am
for emerging Boards and all-volunteer organizations

A Board Chair often lacks support or training for the awesome opportunity to lead a nonprofit. In advance, participants will have the opportunity to identify a topic for a brief presentation at the facilitated sessions. The roundtable focuses on time for Board Chairs (and rising Board Chairs) to discuss challenges and successes with peers.  
Please RSVP no later than Wednesday, April 13 and indicate who will be attending. Space is limited for this event to 22 participants at each session.
