Board of Director experience: How do I find board members for my Christian non-profit?

Levie C. Narito, LPT, Teacher, IT, Christian Counselor & Firefighter. answered:

Finding board members for a Christian non-profit can be difficult, but there are some steps you can take to find individuals who share your vision and are dedicated to the mission of your organization. Here are a few ideas:

1. Pray for direction: Seek God's help in identifying potential board members. Ask Him to provide people who care about your mission and are willing to serve.

2. Start by looking within your personal and professional network. Reach out to friends, family, coworkers, and church members who might be interested in serving on your board or who might know someone who would.

3. Advertise the position: Use social media, church bulletin boards, and other platforms to reach a larger audience.

4. Screen potential board members: Once you've identified potential board members, thoroughly vet them to ensure they're a good fit for your organization. Checking references, conducting background checks, and conducting one-on-one interviews are all possible.

5. Consider their credentials: Look for people with relevant skills and experience, such as financial management, legal knowledge, or fundraising experience. However, it is also critical to find people who share your organization's values and are dedicated to its mission.

6. Finally, pray for discernment in making your final decision. Seek God's wisdom to help you choose the right people to serve on your board. Choose people who are already serving the Lord and who are faithfully serving God and those around them.

Remember that choosing board members is an important decision because these people will have a significant impact on the direction and success of your organization. Take the time to find the right people who share your vision and are dedicated to the mission of your organization.
