April 30, 6:30pm ET | In-Person (Yale Club of NYC) & via Zoom
Are you ready to share your professional expertise with nonprofits that truly need your help? Join us for our monthly Town Hall on April 30 (online and in-person at the Yale Club) for a Board Match featuring organizations at a critical inflection point in their development. At this Board Match we will showcase smaller, newer organizations from our Mentoring Program. These nonprofits are either forming their very first boards or transitioning from founder-led “friends and family” boards to more professional governance structures.
This is a unique opportunity to get in on the ground floor with emerging nonprofits and help shape their future. Your involvement now can have an outsized impact on their development and the communities they serve. Join us to learn more about these promising organizations and discover how your skills could be the missing piece they need to thrive and grow.
