Event Details

Finding board members has always been a challenge, and with COVID-19 resulting in the elimination of in-person networking and outreach efforts, the problem has only intensified. For many nonprofits, the default has been a holding pattern on recruiting new board members, but there is a great opportunity presented now in a world forced to interact primarily online. Nonprofit organizations are seeing significant increases in social media engagement, and it is this newfound visibility and awareness that can create connections to new board candidates. This session will share real world examples from other nonprofits that have used social media to benefit their board and will share examples. In addition, the session will provide a walk-through of the brand newly revised board matching website, BoardStrong.

Presented by Andrew Marietta, NYCON and Barbara Paxton, BoardStrong
