Board members will be expected to make a “personally significant” financial contribution to the organization every year (Camp Quest, Inc. should ideally be one of the top charities you donate to every year). Are you able to do this?

What qualifies as "personally significant" ranges from member to member and can be a small annual donation, covering costs to get to CQ events, a monthly contribution or a large gift depending on the individual situation. This is not meant to be a barrier to serving as a Board Member. Grant applications often ask what percentage of a Board has donated to the organization to ensure internal investment prior to the foundation/corporation committing funding.
