5 Ways to Make the Most of Your Nonprofit Board's Contacts

Nonprofit leaders have a valuable resource hidden in plain sight. It's their board members.

Your board is not just for fundraising or decision-making. Its relationship capital is worth a lot more. It can help meet many of your organization's needs.

Combine the connections your board members have built over their careers with the right opportunities, and your nonprofit could see an explosion in fundraising, better donor retention and even board member recruitment.

Peer-to-peer influence is the most useful kind of influence. And board members have some of the best peers around. Furthermore, engaging with their peers is easy for board members.
