Board Support
Strong board support and executive leadership are essential to the success of each nonprofit organization.

What is Board Support for Nonprofits?
Nonprofits can greatly benefit from support, as most nonprofits need guidance to thrive and grow their mission. At BoardSource, we envision a future where the nonprofit community has the leadership to fulfill its purpose and create a just world where all can thrive together. We believe that strong board and executive leadership are essential to the success of each individual nonprofit, and — for more than 30 years — have been working to inspire and support excellence in nonprofit governance and board and staff leadership.
Many nonprofit boards feel alone and wonder how to locate resources to help them. BoardSource is the go-to resource for nonprofit boards and the recognized leader in the field of nonprofit governance.
