A UVM Extension Building Capacity Project webinar

Membership on a board can be a delight, a chore or a nightmare! Are you on a board that
struggles to keep members meaningfully engaged? Have the members lost energy? Is fundraising
a struggle?.

Learn what obstacles boards typically face as they work towards sustaining the mission of the organization that they serve. Bring your questions to the meeting and leave with practical ideas to help your board get back on track.

Our guest is Stuart Comstock-Gay, President & CEO of the Vermont Community Foundation located in Middlebury Vermont. Karen Schneider, a Community and Leadership Development specialist with the University of Vermont Extension, will moderate the session.

This webinar is part of the University of Vermont Extension Service’s Building Capacity series. The mission of this project is to provide education and technical assistance to build leadershipfor the nonprofit sector as well as small associations, boards, committees and commissions.
