Seeking New Board Member – Eco-School Network

The Eco-School Network is a nonprofit organization that equips parents and students to lead school communities toward sustainability. School-wide and district-wide initiatives connect students with nature, prepare them to live sustainably, and help them discover that they can create meaningful change. If this appeals to you and you’re passionate about children, schools and sustainability, we want to hear from you.

Our current board is a robust group of nine dedicated individuals who work well together. We are shaping this young nonprofit into one that will serve the community for many years and shift the culture and practices of schools toward sustainability. At this time, we are particularly looking for individuals of diverse races and backgrounds that represent the communities we serve, as well as individuals with non-profit finance or accounting experience.
