See descriptions below! Position descriptions are available here.

What are board members responsible for? 

The core of our mission is to serve and build community. You’ll help plan and promote activities based on your position and support events planned by fellow board members. The expected time commitment is 4-6 hours per month. In addition to time, we have a suggested annual fundraising goal for board members (note that fundraising ability is not a determining factor to be a board member). 

How long is a board term? 

It often takes a few months for new board members to get acquainted with the organizations processes and be able to step in to leading events and activities, we therefore ask for a 2-year commitment. Talk to us if you have questions! 

Where and how frequent are board meetings? 

The board meets on the 3rd Tuesday of each month in a virtual meeting. We have 1 or 2 in-person board events each year.

What is the application process like? 

There is a short written application, and you can apply online. There will then be a round of short interviews to learn more about you and your interest in the role. Candidates will hear back about their status in early December.
