How do you stay connected with your Board of Directors and committees?
What strategies do you use to keep your Board connected and engaged with your important philanthropic work?
Some questions from today's Coffee Talk to think about:
- What are your policies and procedures for your Board of Directors and Committees?
- How do you recruit and bring on new members?
- How do you structure committees and what responsibilities come with that membership?
- Do you have any events or special things you do to engage your Board Members?
Do you offer a nonprofit loan program?
We are interested in expanding services to the nonprofit sector. One way to do so would be to offer loans. We are interested in identifying any foundations, particularly community foundations, that offer a loan program for nonprofits. Do you? Do you know a foundation that does?
Thanks in advance for considering this request!

Re: Introduction
Congratulations on your position! I am relatively new to using Foundant's CSuite and SLM, and just dipping my toes into Compass. I'm waiting for a support call, so killing time and hoping to post enough to wins some caramels. :-)
Re: How has your foundation managed database functions / jobs internally?
I appreciate this thread; Coastal Community Foundation of SC is looking to implement a Database Manager for C-Suite/GLM/SLM but not sure where to find someone with understanding of all modules, and if such a position requires a full-time staff add. Each department (Grants, Development, Finance) has been managing their own portion of the software but we need to implement more oversight and help with training, developing greater utilization, and building out the donor portal with more functionality. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
