The Complexity of Fundraising Boards

There can be no argument as to the role of the not-for-profit sector in supporting and improving Canadian society. Much of the sector is driven by the work and passion of thousands of volunteers serving on boards throughout the country. Their size, scale, and operating models vary widely, as do the composition of the boards that govern them. Fundraising is on all of their agendas--and particularly fundraising in a sustainable and predictable way that fuels their mission.

So, what does good governance have to do with fundraising? As it turns out, a lot. Donors and funders want to see good governance because it results in accountability, transparency, ethical decision-making, and long-term strategic thinking. Those are drivers of trust and credibility.

Join us on April 16, 2025, when Carmine Militano, P.Eng., ICD.D, shares his lessons learned from decades of experience as a Director and Leader on numerous non-profit and not-for-profit boards. He will touch on the topics of board recruitment, donor stewardship, understanding the operating model of the organization, risk assessment, and balancing the tension of “noses in and fingers out”. Whether you are on a board embarking on its first ever capital campaign, or one with a long legacy of fundraising, you can look forward to valuable insights.
