Board Assessment

Project details

What we need
  • 1-2 page summary of takeaways and trends from interviewing key individuals (no more than 8 interviews total)
  • Identification of the board’s strengths and recommendations for areas of improvement for board members collectively and individually
Additional details

We have 8 board members and the goal of this assessment is to learn how best we can collectively fundraise for the organization.

What we have in place
  • We currently have the board committee, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have the executive chairperson, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $8,773 , allowing us to it will save us money for a refresher course that could perhaps cost about $200

We need to understand the role of each and every member of the committee in fundraising for the organization.
