Fundraising Committee
The Fundraising Committee's job is not simply to raise money. Instead, the Fundraising Committee is responsible for overseeing the organization's overall fundraising and, in particular, the fundraising done by the board. To accomplish this, its responsibilities are:
To work with staff to establish a fundraising plan that incorporates a series of appropriate vehicles, such as special events, direct mail, product sales, etc.
To work with fundraising staff in their efforts to raise money
To take the lead in certain types of outreach efforts, such as chairing a dinner/dance
committee or hosting fundraising parties, etc.
To be responsible for involvement of all board members in fundraising, such as having board
members make telephone calls to ask for support, and
To monitor fundraising efforts to be sure that ethical practices are in place, that donors are
acknowledged appropriately, and that fundraising efforts are cost-effective.
Finance Committee
The Finance Committee (often called the Budget and Finance Committee) tasks are:
To review budgets initially prepared by staff, to help develop appropriate procedures for budget preparations (such as meaningful involvement by program directors), and on a consistency between the budget and the organization's plans
To report to the board any financial irregularities, concerns, opportunities
To recommend financial guidelines to the board (such as to establish a reserve fund or to
obtain a line of credit for a specified amount)
To work with staff to design financial reports and ensure that reports are accurate and timely
To oversee short and long-term investments, unless there is a separate investments
committee
To recommend selection of the auditor and work with the auditor, unless there is a separate
audit committee, and
To advise the executive director and other appropriate staff on financial priorities and
information systems, depending on committee member expertise.
Board Development Committee
In some ways the most influential of all the committees, the Board Development Committee (sometimes called the Nominating Committee or the Committee on Trustees) is responsible for the general affairs of the board. While the specific tasks of this committee vary greatly from organization to organization, they usually include some or all of the following responsibilities:
To prepare priorities for board composition
To meet with prospective board members and recommend candidates to the board
To recommend a slate of officers to the board
To conduct orientation sessions for new board members and to organize training sessions for
the entire board, and
To suggest new, non-board individuals for committee membership.
Program Committee
The Program Committee is often comprised of board members who are most familiar with the approaches and operations of the organization's programs. (Some boards feel that the organization's program--its "products"--should be overseen by the whole board.) Depending on its make-up and programs, this committee's most common responsibilities are:
To oversee new program development, and to monitor and assess existing programs
To initiate and guide program evaluations, and
To facilitate discussions about program priorities for the agency.
Board Members form part of the governing body of an organization. They are committed to the long-term interests of the organization and meet regularly to oversee and direct business operations, set policies, approve business decisions, evaluate executive performances and fulfill fiduciary responsibilities.
