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 staff members and a few board members, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a mission statement and goals, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,822 , allowing us to create more dance classes for Seniors, more dance/fitness teachers for our various programs, and more inner city youth dance scholarships.

We are seeking board members that are willing to come to at least four quarterly board meetings, attend events, and fundraisers. We want our board members to be advocates for our organization. We work with low to low moderate income, seniors, inner city youth, and also have a professional company. With an active board, we can continue to serve these communities.
