The Appropriate Board
A strong board is an achievement, not a privilege.
Selecting the Appropriate Board
Individuals often join nonprofit boards due to their faith in the mission, a wish to contribute, and a passion for sharing and enhancing their skills or knowledge. Nonprofit leaders frequently envision possibilities that surpass common expectations, such as a safeguarded environment, the eradication of hunger, compassionate care for all children, and the promotion education, art, and spirituality. As champions of these ideals, nonprofit marketing plays a vital role.
