Why it Matters

Boards reflecting the communities they serve better understand the challenges and potential solutions they can effectively address.
Only 28% of boards place a high priority on “membership within the community served” as part of board recruitment.
67% of executives report that not enough time is spent by the board on building relationships within the Community that help support and inform the organization’s work.
“As a working and volunteer-led board, using AK Board Match was an invaluable experience for our small but mighty team. Ultimately, the tool connected us with a candidate who not only brought valuable expertise we were missing but also shared our passion for our mission. Thanks to this tool, we were able to successfully vet, nominate, and onboard our newest board member, who is already making a significant impact.”

“Utilizing The Foraker Group’s board match tool was not only an easy process, but a smart move! Connecting non-profits with high-quality board members not only strengthens the non-profit, but the communities we serve. We are very thankful for this fantastic tool, and will most certainly use it again.”

“Now that my children are older, one of my goals was to get more involved in the community. A friend referred me to the Alaska Board Match. I built a profile which includes sharing what you are personally passionate about. Now, I sit on four boards within the community, all thanks to this great service. ”
