What we’re looking for

We are seeking board members who have prior experience serving on a nonprofit board or in a high-level executive position, who are goal-oriented, strategic and focused; able to navigate groups away from distractions and break down big ideas into manageable steps.

AthFest Educates board members are expected to serve as stewards of the organization by supporting the purpose and mission of AthFest Educates. Further, board members are charged with ensuring, developing, and conserving the organization’s resources; interpreting the organization’s work and values to the community; and representing the organization.

Board members will attend bi-monthly board meetings as well as actively serve on at least one committee. Board members attend and represent the organization at the organization’s fundraisers, the AthFest Music & Arts Festival and the AthHalf Half Marathon & 5K, as well as at other AthFest Educates related events.
