What does it take to become a stand-out nonprofit board member? Enrolling now in our Fall 2025 Board Connection Program.
Sessions are for every Tuesday 9 – 11:30 AM starting October 14 to November 4, 2025 . Upon completion of the 4 weekly sessions you will be prepared to join a nonprofit board and find a successful match. The training dives into everything from board governance to understanding basic finance and fundraising. You will also have the opportunity to meet nonprofit agency partners with open board positions, polish and practice your new skills, and access resources through our Board Connection Portal. The cost to attend Board Connection is $500 and many employers will reimburse this cost as a leadership training opportunity. As we work together to increase the diversity of nonprofit boards in our region, United Way’s Corporate Partner, Sun Life is sponsoring spots for individuals from historically marginalized communities to register for United Way’s Board Connection trainings at no cost. Limited scholarships are also available. For additional information on either of these opportunities, please email engagement@supportunitedway.org .
