• Help establish the strategic direction of the organization

• Help provide oversight and accountability for the organization’s programs, finances, and legal matters

And I pledge to do the following:

• Understand and be passionate about the organization’s mission, values, vision, and goals
• Stay informed about issues and trends in the community that may affect the organization
• Help recruit, retain, and evaluate board members and an executive director
• Contribute financially and help seek resources from others

• Understand the organization’s programs, expected outcomes, finances, and policies
• Work in partnership with board and staff members
• Participate regularly and actively at board meetings, committee meetings, and other events
• Provide leadership to and support MountainTrue’s anti-racist work

Personal Commitment:

• Participate in all meetings (annual retreat in January, quarterly board meetings, two all-day Saturday field trips, and the Annual Gathering)
• Serve on a board subcommittee and attend meetings
• Participate in at least two MountainTrue public events (hike, snorkel, river cleanup, concert, etc.; 2–4 hours each)
• Meet with donors and community leaders as needed
• Recruit new board members
• Make MountainTrue one of my top three charities for personal financial support
