Thank you to the nonprofit staff and board members who joined us for The Cooper Foundation’s Board Governance training last night at the Bledsoe-Miller STEAM Center!

We appreciated the thoughtful conversations around board roles, accountability, governance best practices, and building strong, effective nonprofit leadership. It was encouraging to see so many organizations investing in stronger boards and stronger communities.

A special thank you to our gracious hosts at the Bledsoe-Miller STEAM Center for providing such a welcoming space, and to Cha Community for an incredible meal that introduced attendees to kimchi, dumplings, and galaxy lemonade — a tasty and memorable evening!

Stay tuned for two more sessions this fall.
