Strong board engagement does not happen by accident. It requires clarity, structure, and intentional leadership. At a time when nonprofits increasingly rely on their boards to help secure unrestricted support and open doors to new donors, this practical session will examine how the full board experience — from recruitment and onboarding through ongoing engagement, accountability, and renewal — shapes fundraising success. Attendees will learn how to activate board members based on their strengths and relationships, strengthen follow-through, and create a board culture that drives stronger fundraising results.

Takeaways:

  1. Strategies to identify meaningful ways board members can contribute to revenue growth
  2. Discuss practical tactics to clarify board fundraising expectations and build board member confidence and comfort in donor engagement
  3. Strengthen accountability through board culture, structure, and leadership
