Thinking About Joining a Board?

I recently gave this presentation entitled “Being on a Board: What’s It All About?” at the Grant Professionals MidAtlantic Conference and I am sharing the slides with you here. I was asked to give this presentation because many grant professionals get asked to be on a Board and some would like to be on a Board for professional development.

Being on a Board is a serious responsibility and commitment and should be considered thoughtfully. It also can be a major personal growth experience and be an important career enhancing experience. The slides are posted on slideshare for downloading and you can view them here.

  1. …………………………..Everyone agrees that the Board should have a role in fundraising. And should it be a requirement?There are volunteers donors and board members. What s the difference?Volunteers give generously of their time and talents and many nonprofits could not exist without them.Donors give money generously nonprofits need them too.Board members give both of these and more.
