What makes a good nonprofit board? Robin Hood has the answer and it’s in our board placement program.
Did you know effective nonprofits rely on dedicated Boards of Directors for leadership and strategic guidance? Yet, recruiting the right board members can be challenging. According to BoardSource, 58% of nonprofit chief executives face this struggle. That’s where Robin Hood’s Management Acceleration team steps in!
In 2023 alone, Robin Hood placed 30 individuals on the Boards of 27 nonprofits, thanks to our network of corporate partners like Warburg Pincus.
Jacob Strauss, Managing Director at Warburg Pincus, shares his journey from interest to placement on the Student Leadership Network’s Board of Directors, to fulfill his mission of impacting young lives.
“In May of 2023 I joined the board of the Student Leadership Network. The organization is doing great work that is meaningful to students and changing their life trajectory, from my perspective, and certainly their career trajectory. It’s been wonderful to be a part of and hopefully I’ve added value along the way as a board director.”
