Board Of Directors

Have you ever been apart of a Board of Directors or Advisory Board in the past? If so, please list the organization(s) below as well (business, civic, community, religious, political, professional, recreational or social): *

YOUR WHY

Those committed to volunteering in a leadership capacity have an abundance of organizations to choose from. We are most appreciative of your interest in ours and would like to hear more. Why our organization and not any other?

Please share your motivation and what it is about our work that has led you to raise your hand to be a leading ambassador for us. *

FUNDRAISING

Among other responsibilities, board members play a key role in raising funds for our organization. It is an expectation of board service that you will introduce people in your sphere of influence to our work and invite them know and do more – as prospective volunteers, board members, staff and as donors. Our organization commits to providing you with the information and tools necessary for you to stand as a vocal and visible ambassador for our work.

SKILLS

ATTRIBUTES

A board is more than a collection of individuals. It is an entity that governs, approves strategy and engages in robust discussion and debate on relevant issues. It must act as a single entity. As such, the personality traits you bring to the board will help us to ensure that we have a diversity of personality styles and traits that, when added to our current board members, will enhance the ability of the board members to work together as a governing body. Please check attributes that align with your personality:

TIME

Board service is a true commitment of time and energy. We estimate that board service could be a commitment of 2 to 4 hours each month. In addition, we ask for attendance at special events benefitting our organization.

Do you have any concerns or potential conflicts that may serve as impediments to this time commitment? If so, how will you manage the demands on your time? *
