sf.citi welcomes you to join us for Board Leadership 101: Make an Impact in Your Community. In this virtual panel discussion, we’ll hear from a panel of local tech leaders discuss how becoming a nonprofit board member can advance your career, enhance your life, and improve your community.

With everything going on in the world, companies have seen employees wanting more opportunities to give back and get involved in the community. There's a demand for greater involvement than one-off opportunities like volunteering and donating. For professionals to take community engagement a step further, the decision to join a nonprofit board becomes a long-term commitment to safeguard that organization's mission and ensure its legal and financial health.

But what does it take to become a nonprofit board member? Can anyone become a nonprofit board member? How do you find the right nonprofit to join? What responsibilities come with the position? How much can joining a nonprofit board improve your leadership skills, advance your career, and grow your network?

To answer these questions and more, join us as we explore why there's no better time to join a nonprofit board—both to maximize your impact in the community and for long-term personal growth. We'll also hear stories from the panelists about their experiences becoming board members and the work they have accomplished in that position.

Our lineup of experienced nonprofit board members includes Ali Vivinetto, Product Marketing Manager at Google, Cammy Blackstone, Director of External Affairs at AT&T, and Hakeem Oseni, Senior Product Manager of Detection and Response at Salesforce.

*Are you a nonprofit in need of a board member or a professional that wants to get more involved in the community but can’t attend? Make sure you still sign up to receive more information.*
