Matching Services

Through a personalized matching program, we connect engaged individuals from the Marin community with nonprofits that are in need of board members. Potential board candidates are matched with nonprofits based on the candidate’s interests and background relative to the particular needs of the nonprofit boards. Currently, BoardMatch Marin is the only board referral program in the Bay Area that offers individual guidance and support from coordinators.
