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 working on revamping and reevaluating our board and seek new members to create a more functioning executive body. The purpose of this new board, though supervisory, should also be focused on fundraising. This project will involve two phases of interviewing to be done after an initial phase of research. We will also work on creating documentation and best practices for onboarding the new members.

What we have in place
  • We currently have information on our past events, as well as past grants, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a list of current members and our bylaws, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,198 , allowing us to expand our current projects budgets.

Our dance company is experience quick growth, and our projects have become bigger than ever. Having a more robust board would lessen the burden on our part time administrative staff, as well as keep a better eye on our financials.
