🎯 Ever wondered how #nonprofits work behind the scenes? It’s not all about #fundraising! Here’s a simple breakdown of the three key groups that make it all happen: 💼 1. Board of Directors The big-picture thinkers! They set the #vision, make major decisions, establish a budget and ensure the nonprofit stays true to its mission. 🧭 ------------------------------------ 👩💻 2. Staff The everyday heroes. From senior leaders to program managers, fundraisers, and interns, they handle daily operations and turn plans into action. 💪✨ #Kudos to all of my World Vision Canada colleagues. ------------------------------------ 🤝 3. #Volunteers The heart and hands of the nonprofit. They bring passion, skills, and time to support the #mission and amplify the impact. ❤️ (Right, Cynthia Hove?) ------------------------------------ Nonprofits aren’t just about passion—they’re powered by teamwork and structure. 👉 If you had to choose one of these roles, which would you love to take on? Let’s chat in the comments! ⬇️
For now, I’m volunteering, but I’d love to eventually join the Board of Directors. As someone with experience volunteering for several nonprofits, I’ve encountered a major challenge: getting volunteers to stay committed long-term. Do you have any recommendations for retaining and engaging volunteers over time?
