Committee Member + Nonprofit Partner: The core liaison to your nonprofit partner, and a leadership role in the program.

Responsibilities: Attend monthly committee meetings, attend monthly program cohort meetings, and connect with your partnered nonprofit regularly throughout the program to offer support, resources, and information (4–6 hours/month)
Event Team: Help raise sponsorships and champion the June 2027 Showcase event, recruit folks to attend, set up the event space, welcome people, and more (2–3 hrs/month)
Skilled Volunteer Pool Member: Offer your skills in a pool of volunteers to be accessed by nonprofit cohort members throughout the program (financial, legal, strategic planning, fundraising, grant writing, communications, corporate engagement, board building, and other skills are all useful) (1-2 hrs/month)
