As someone who researched how to, then developed a 501c3 nonprofit myself, I made contacts locally over the years with a lot of great people, without whom the vision would never have materialized. Carrie Minnich, MAcct, CPA, and Partner at DWD (in Fort Wayne), specialing in nonprofits, has been one my best resources. She has a wealth of information to share.
Carrie offers free and "open to all" virtual workshops on a routine basis to aid the growth and sustainability of nonprofits in northeast Indiana routinely. You can find upcoming webinars and other resources here: https://dwdcpa.com/specialties/nonprofit/nonprofit-education/
Her latest offering hit my inbox today. It is a webinar titled Nonprofit Board Member Responsibilities, designed for those who have recently joined a board and those who are considering board service. Learn what a board member should know about how nonprofits operate, what to ask before joining a board, and responsibilities and expectations of serving as a board member.
This will be held on February 7, 2024 from 10 AM to 11 AM. You can register here.
