Presenter
Andy Robinson, National Speaker

To be effective, nonprofits must recruit board members who support their ideals, represent the diversity of the community, bring a wide range of skills, and can help raise money.

This workshop covers:

  • How boards change as organizations grow and change
  • Finding and filling the gaps on your board
  • Creating and using a board “job description”
  • Redefining fundraising: It’s not just asking for money
  • Building a board fundraising menu
  • Helping board members take fundraising leadership and hold each other accountable
