Why We Started Our Board MatchMaking Service

Based on research and discussions with nonprofits, finding board members can be a daunting and time-consuming task. Furthermore, finding board members who understand the roles, responsibilities and duties of serving on a board adds to the time in finding the ideal candidate. Add to this the search for diverse candidates or candidates with specific skill sets, the drain on an organization’s resources can be significant.

Nonprofits are not the only ones with an issue. Companies with a commitment to community engagement, also face a similar challenge of finding well-matched nonprofit board seats for their professional and management employees.

Our Solution

We have created a process to bring the right board candidates and nonprofits together. Here is an overview of the process:

Board candidates attend an ‘Introduction to Nonprofit Board Service’ workshop to gain an overview of the expectations and to hear from co-workers who currently serve on boards. This can be virtual or in-person.
Following the introductory workshop, those willing to move forward will fill in an online intake form indicating their skills, background, and causes they care about. We then compare these to the intake forms we’ve received from the nonprofits, and match the candidate to the nonprofit.
We facilitate a one-on-one meeting where the two parties become better acquainted. If the match is ideal, the board candidate will then follow the nonprofits’ onboarding process.
Prior to joining the board, each board candidate will attend a comprehensive workshop, “Roles, Responsibilities and Duties of a Nonprofit Board Member”.
