How do you attract nonprofit board members? GrantWatch<\/strong> has some important information to share about finding the perfect candidate for your nonprofit board. The first and perhaps most important step is to determine who you want to approach to serve as a board member. One of your best sources of potential new board members is likely to come from your existing board members. However, whether you are starting from scratch or already a have board in place, you want people who share values that align with your organization’s mission. Find individuals who share the passion of current board members in doing the work necessary to fulfill the organization’s mission (to achieve the goal or objective of the nonprofit).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, initiate contact. Ask for a meeting to gauge their interest and tell them your narrative story–how your nonprofit came to be. A Nominating Committee should conduct interviews from diverse professional backgrounds to vet your candidates. Clearly outline the role and expectations and decide whether to open applications to all or select specific individuals. Foster a friendly and inviting atmosphere for new board members and make them feel welcome. You’ll come to find that working with fresh faces brings new perspectives, and now that the board is in place, the real work can begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
