Although we are proud of our online matching tool, we believe that successful matchmaking is based on clarifying expectations and building solid relationships. Our training component is designed to make “dating” lead to “long-term marriages.”
- Readiness to Serve workshops prepare individuals for board service and provide guidance on using our online matching tool. The interactive two-hour session provides an overview of the nonprofit sector and the basic roles and responsibilities of nonprofit boards. Individuals learn how to determine if a nonprofit organization will be a good fit and how to create an online profile that will make you an attractive board prospect. Attendees receive a manual. Refreshments are served.
- Readiness to Recruit workshops prepare organizations to identify, meet and elect new board members and provide guidance on using our online matching tool. The interactive two-hour session provides an overview of the basic roles and responsibilities of nonprofit boards and offers strategies for successful recruitment. Participants learn how to create a persuasive online profile that accurately reflects their organization’s mission, programs and leadership needs. Attendees receive a manual. Refreshments are served. To ensure that the board and staff are committed to our matching
process, the executive director, board chair and at least one other
board member are required to attend the workshop. Additional board
members and staff are welcome to attend any session.
