Boards in Gear

Event Details

Wednesday, April 29, 2026
9:30 AM – 1:30 PM PT
Big Bend Community College- Masto Conference Center (ATEC Building)
Moses Lake, WA

You joined a nonprofit board because you care about the organization’s mission. You want your contributions as a board member to positively affect the issues addressed by the organization. As a board, you want your nonprofit to thrive and make a difference in the communities served by your organization. Whether your nonprofit is just starting or is long established, getting your board in gear can help put your organization on a clear path forward.

This interactive workshop is based on the Boards in Gear resources developed in partnership with some of our state’s leading board experts. You will leave with concrete action steps, tools, and connections.

The workshop will cover:

  1. Board responsibilities
  2. Board operations
  3. Composition and development
  4. Fundraising
  5. Advocacy

 

A light lunch will be provided.

Cost

This workshop is free to attend thanks to support from our partners.
