The committee coordinator will identify prospective board of directors members suggested by various sources including: external advertising, current committee volunteers and members, skilled volunteers engaged in your organization’s work and/or that have been advisors to your board. Individuals must be passionate about the mission of the organization.
Once the committee coordinator has an initial list of good candidates, it’s important to approach those people and cultivate relationships with them well in advance of the nomination process. The committee coordinator will need to do its homework to determine the interests, abilities and appropriateness of each prospect in advance of meeting with potential board members.

Description
A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER
In Her Shoes Foundation has over 60 committee volunteers who run this organization on a daily basis, in addition to working their full-time jobs and fulfilling their everyday obligations as parents, spouses, siblings, daughters - or sons and friends. When I founded this foundation in 2008 we originally called it The Positive Girls Club. It was envisioned as an organization that would support women of all ages who were determined to make positive changes in their lives. I started hosting monthly professional development workshops to inspire, connect, educate, and support the women in our community. Today, over 10 years later, we’re now known as In Her Shoes Foundation, and our flagship program, Ready Set Girls Academy, is exceeding our goals year over year for reaching young women preventatively. This curriculum-based program is run by our volunteer group mentors and is being delivered within public and private high schools. In addition we partnered with multiple community organization who support our initiative.
Today, we are achieving our vision of empowering and inspiring every woman and girl to be her personal best. We currently have three programs and hope to expand in the next couple of years.

Thank you for attending and supporting our events.
