What we are looking for
Experience that strengthens the whole organization.
Finance & governance
Bring sound judgment to budgets, organizational priorities, financial oversight, policies, risk, and responsible use of resources.

You do not need every skill listed. We welcome complementary perspectives, practical follow-through, and a willingness to learn.
How you can help
Be an active steward
of the mission.
Board service should connect thoughtful oversight with meaningful contribution.
- Prepare and participate. Read materials, ask useful questions, and follow through on agreed responsibilities.
- Help build sustainable support. Make introductions, participate in fundraising, and advocate for BGP within your networks.
- Protect community trust. Respect confidentiality, disclose conflicts, and consider dignity, access, and privacy in decisions.
- Keep priorities realistic. Help connect available resources to achievable goals and measurable progress.
