Non-profit Development: What is the most important detail in asking someone to be on a BOD for a non-profit?

Carmen Forge, Sr. Application Advisor at ARTISTSBOOTCAMP.COM answered:

I believe the most important detail in asking someone to be a board of director for your organization is to make sure that their immediate level of commitment is where you need it or expect it to be.

In choosing a BOD they need to be active in whatever area they are creative and that most benefits the organization. You may have those BOD's that are there for guidance and counseling, but for those who are on board and are with your mission 85% - 100%, then you should have expectations, requirements that tap into their trait, quality, or talent and utilize their uniqueness to build your organization.

I hope this information has been helpful? Please give me a call to further your plans to build your non-profit. I also work with others who can assist you with fundraising ideas!

Blessings,
