SUMMARY:Key Ways to Foster Board Engagement
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is being hosted by The Chronicle of Philanthropy \nFebruary 26th\, 2:00 PM – 3:15 PM \nRegistration Fees: $89 \nREGISTRATION\nFor many nonprofit CEOs\, board engagement is a more urgent and complicated leadership challenge than it was even a few years ago. Today’s environment is putting new pressure on how trustees and leaders work together at a time when executives are navigating uncertainty\, pressure\, and limited capacity. \nThe stakes are clear: Research shows only about one in three CEOs believe they have the “right” board members to support their organization’s current strategy. As nonprofits look toward 2026\, finding ways to close this gap is more critical than ever. \nJoin this 75-minute webinar to learn from two nonprofit leaders who bring long histories of working closely with boards as executives and advisers. They’ll share trends they’re seeing now\, situations where board engagement tends to break down\, and tactics that are helping make the board-CEO relationship more productive and supportive in this moment. \nYou’ll learn ways to:\n\nEncourage more active board participation and match members’ contributions to your organization’s most pressing needs\nClarify expectations and improve how board and staff members work together\nBuild board engagement that supports leadership during complex moments\n\nYou’ll walk away with practical insights you can apply immediately — whether you’re trying to reset expectations with a long-standing board or navigate engagement challenges that have become harder to ignore. \nTo register on behalf of another person\, group\, international registrations or request other accommodations\, please contact events@philanthropy.com (recommended) or 571-540-8070 and include the name of the webinar\, billing address\, and attendee information. \nThis webinar is worth 1.25 CFRE credits. \nSpeakers: \nMonika Kalra Varma\, President & CEO\, Board Source \nKevin Dean\, President & CEO\, Tennessee Nonprofit Network \nHost: \nStephani Beasley\, Senior Writer\, Chronicle of Philanthropy

SUMMARY:Joining a Nonprofit Board
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is being hosted by Board Strong & New York Council of Nonprofits\, Inc. \nApril 28th\, 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM \nRegistration Fees: Individual – FREE\n \nREGISTER\n\n\n\nAre you interested in volunteering to serve on a nonprofit board but don’t know where to start? Are you serving on a board and could use a refresher? \nHave you been wondering how you can make a difference in your community? Board service is a great way to give back by giving your skills and experience to help a nonprofit that serves a cause or community you care about. It is a position with intrinsic rewards that can also provide opportunities for personal and professional development\, allowing you to develop new skills\, broaden your network and become a leader in your community. \nBecoming a board member is also serious business and carries with it a significant level of responsibility. It is very important that current and prospective board members be aware of the responsibilities and expectations associated with serving on a nonprofit board. \nIn this workshop\, Barbara Paxton\, Director of BoardStrong\, will discuss why you should consider board services and what it means to serve on the Board of Directors of a nonprofit organization. She will also give you advice about what to consider when you are selecting a board\, how to find a board that matches your interests\, and show you how to find the right board using our free\, one-of-a-kind board matching platform. \nDETAILS: \nWhen: Tuesday\, April 28\, 2026\, Noon – 1:00pm\, EST \nWhere: Online. A link will be sent to all who register. \nBoardStrong’s mission is to assist nonprofit organizations in achieving the highest standards of board leadership\, governance and oversight. We do this by providing nonprofit board training\, consultation and providing educational resources. We also have an online recruitment platform that helps organizations seeking new board members find talented board candidates from outside their networks. \nBoardStrong is an affiliate of the New York Council of Nonprofits (NYCON). \n\n\n\n\n\nHosted By\n\n\n\nBoardStrong

SUMMARY:International Fundraising Without Breaking Trust\, Compliance\, or Capacity
DESCRIPTION:This webinar workshop is being hosted by Nonprofit 411 \nApril 28th\, 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM \nRegistration Fees: Individual – $97\, Organization (+3) – $249 (WVNPA members save 15%\, email hilaria@wvnpa.org or login to the members only portal to find the discount code)\n \nREGISTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat’s actually working?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInternational fundraising is often approached with good intentions\, but without the structure needed to succeed. Many organizations move too quickly into program delivery or fundraising without first establishing community trust\, understanding regulatory realities\, or clearly communicating their work to donors. \nThis session will break down what actually makes international fundraising work and where organizations commonly go wrong.Drawing on nearly two decades of experience supporting projects across 75+ countries\, Nichole Yamchuk\, of Advocate Fundraising\, will walk through the realities of entering and working within communities\, navigating cross-border compliance considerations\, and positioning programs in a way that funders can trust and support. \nThis is not a theoretical session.
