Board Recruitment Plan

Project details

What we need
  • Assessment of specific Organizational needs mapped to specific board roles
  • Candidate evaluation guide for prospective board members, including suggested vetting questions and timeline
  • Marketing tools and guidance on how to execute recruitment
  • Note: This project does not include actual board recruitment on the part of the Professional
What we have in place
  • We currently have a number of related documents (job descriptions, etc), which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have assessment docs, agreements, board packets, etc., and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,822 , allowing us to focus on our NPO capacity building initiatives through education (VCSJ Nonprofit Institute). This includes Volunteer Management, Board Development Training and Service Enterprise Certification.

We are looking for Board diversity to help us get to the next level. We have a number of growth and sustainability strategies in place, with unmatched Board support.
