Nonprofit Leadership Mentor for President

Save to Favorites

For the last 5 years I have been running my nonprofit boxing gym. We accomplished some really good things and positively impacted the youth and young adults in our community. I have seen boxers who were getting bullied build their confidence and stop the bullies. I have also seen our boxers develop leadership skills in their personal lives. We have partnered with the police department and provided no-cost women's self defense classes. We have had unity discussions with police officers and my boxers of color.

I believe that there is so much more that we can do such as offering a boxing Parkinson's Disease class, launch an afterschool tutoring program, and increase financial support for our boxers competing in local, regional, state and national events.

We have many opportunities at our fingertips but I need to engage a mentor to provide me with guidance on governance and non-profit management. Our board is engaged and supportive of our mission but I am unable to provide the oversight and direction that they need to be fully engaged in the organization. I would also benefit from the guidance in the area of non-profit management. I am well versed in the management of a a gym and physical fitness business but I would greatly benefit from someone well versed in non-profit management to take our organization to the next level.
