Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires slates volunteer networking event

LENOX — April is Volunteer Month and the Nonprofit Center of the Berkshires will host a “Get on Board” event in partnership with Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation. The event will run from 8:30 to 10 a.m.

April 29 in the lobby of the Tina Packer Playhouse at Shakespeare & Company, 70 Kemble St. The purpose of this coffee networking event is to connect nonprofits to community members who want to use their time, talent and treasure to serve on a nonprofit board. NPC also provides a personal matching service to help strengthen nonprofit boards.



Both nonprofits and community members fill out a form identifying their needs and skills respectively. A team of volunteers reviews the confidential information and connects potential candidates to local organizations. Those who have never served on a board can access “Intro to Board Service” videos free on the NPC website, npcberkshires.
