“Last year, I was interested in finding ways to get involved through board service in the Anchorage community. I was excited to learn about AK Board Match, and found it to be an easy and effective site which led to a beneficial match. I am happy to contribute to an organization that has a mission I value, and that was looking for someone with my perspective and skill set.”

“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. ”

“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.”
