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 Board Chair and Ed ready to work, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have two returning board members who are ready to help, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,822 , allowing us to put money towards meetings, systems, and making our board stronger in the long term.

We had a huge turnover this year based on some life circumstances (a baby, moving, illness) and lost three major board members. This is a big year for us because it is our 10 year anniversary so we need to create a stronger board.

Our mission

Camp Jamison's mission is to provide an inclusive, affordable, and diverse traditional overnight summer camp experience for all Philadelphia children. Camp Jamison offers a range of activities as well as social and emotional benefits. Camp Jamison's founder, Jacqueline (Christy) McDonough, created Camp Jamison because she knew firsthand of the transformative power of summer camp, and wanted to offer the joy of the camp experience to children from her hometown of Philadelphia. We are celebrating our 10th year in operation this summer so we are very excited about that!

What we do

Camp Jamison runs a traditional overnight summer camp program for all children.
