Board Prospecting

Project details

What we need
  • Assessment of current donors, volunteers, beneficiaries and other constituents to pinpoint people who are interested in serving your Organization
  • Informal staff and board interviews to survey potential connections and/or leads
  • A document of up to ten pages that lists potential board members based upon your Organization's data and current audiences
  • Note: The Professional will not be communicating with prospective board members.
Additional details

We are looking to grow our board of directors by six.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a board of six with 3 active members, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a dedicated person, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,198 , allowing us to send more kids from the inner city of Chicago to take the Self-Love Bootcamp for FREE!!!

I was told by a funder recently that they'd like to fund us, but we needed to work on our board. I already knew this to be true, and am now ready to move forward.
