Free BoardLinks training for professionals wanting
to serve on a nonprofit board
Inland Empire, CA (April 1,
2008) – BoardLinks, a program of Inland Empire United Way,
is a free training for management-level employees wanting to
serve on a nonprofit board of directors. Join us:
6 - 8 p.m.
Wednesday, May 21
Inland Empire United Way
9624 Hermosa Avenue
Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730
BoardLinks partners with local companies and corporations to
recruit and train talented management-level and above
individuals who are interested in serving as a board member but
perhaps do not know which agency is the best fit for their
interests and talents. Training empowers potential board
candidates to become contributing members to a nonprofit board
and to understand the legal responsibilities of board oversight.
Once training is completed, BoardLinks then assists the
volunteer in their search for a leadership position that matches
their interest. By facilitating the connection between these
newly trained leaders and opportunities in the community,
BoardLinks increases the pool of skilled and enthusiastic
candidates, broadens the diversity on local boards, cultivates
community networks, enhances corporate social responsibility and
ultimately strengthens the nonprofit organization’s capacity to
serve our communities.
Sign up today for this free informative session and get
connected with an organization where you can invest your time,
skills and interests. RSVP online at
