There are many benefits to having a board of directors:

  • Credibility when approaching potential funders and applying for grants
  • Connections to potentially useful and important people in the social circles of board members
  • Guidance in financial and practical situations from experienced board members

This page should be a place to brainstorm potential board members. An ideal board member is interested in what we're doing and sufficiently established to provide the above mentioned benefits.
