Recruiting Board Members
Presented by:
Sonia Saleh, Uplifting Nonprofits
Is your board stuck in a cycle of “We need more people” followed by... crickets? Especially if you want them to fundraise too.
Too often, board recruitment sounds like:
“Do you know anyone rich who might join?”
But building a productive, fundraising-engaging board takes more than wealth or a big title. It takes the right people—those who care, commit, and contribute.
In this 45-minute session, you’ll get the tools to empower your board members to take the lead in recruitment—without awkwardness, pressure, or confusion.
🎯 You’ll learn how to:
-
Help your board identify who they're really looking for (spoiler: not just a CPA, attorney, or a C-Suite name)
-
Shift the mindset from “filling a seat” to “extending an opportunity”
-
Share your board’s impact in a way that excites and inspires potential recruits
This session gives you a practical and replicable approach to board recruitment that you can share with your current members.
✨ The result? A stronger, more active board—built by the people who know what it takes to serve.
Join us on Tuesday, June 10 at 2pm EST.
Learn how to set your board up to grow with intention, confidence, and clarity.
