Board Bootcamp is Back!
It’s time for the second Board Bootcamp, presented by YLNI and the Paul Clarke Nonprofit Resource Center! Got skills you’re not using at work? Passionate about a community cause? Certain that life holds more than the daily grind of making ends meet? Ready to be the change you wish to see in the world? Always wondered what serving on a board actually means? Then you’re ready for Board Bootcamp!
Expert facilitator Mike Stone from Impact Strategies, Inc. will guide you through the ins and outs of board service, your basic responsibilities as a board member, and how to find an organization that matches your passion. Three 90-minute sessions will get you on the path to building a community that reflects your interests, whether through board service or committee work.
Session I, Thursday, April 12: The Nonprofit Sector and Nonprofit Boards
Session II, Thursday, April 26: Board Roles and Structures
Session III, Thursday May 10: Finding Your Place
All sessions are held from 11:30am-1:00pm at the Allen County Public Library (downtown location).
Once you complete Bootcamp, we’ll give you opportunities to connect to area nonprofits with mutual interests. You’ll also be supported by Rolfsen Stewardship Award nominees.
Give us your time and appetite for learning. We’ll provide lunch and training materials to support your hunger. Thanks to the generous support of our funder, there is no cost to attend, but participants are expected to attend all three sessions. Seating is limited and advance registration is required. Our first session filled up in three hours, so don’t delay! Register here to attend.
