The PFund Foundation Board of Directors appoints both Board Members and community members to sit on various committees that support the development of the foundation. These committees enable the Board to carry out thoughtful governance of the organization.

Overall, the members of committees contribute to the educational, management, legal, philanthropic, programmatic and financial skills needed to ensure long-term organizational stability and ensure year-to-year efficacy and dedication to the mission and vision of being a vital resource, catalyst and community builder for LGBTQ+ community members in the Upper Midwest.

For more information, please check out our 2024 board committee information packet.

If you have any questions or are interested in applying to be a member of a PFund Foundation committee, please submit the form on this page. Our Executive Director, Aaron Zimmerman will connect you with our Nominations Committee.

Committee recruitment is an ongoing process throughout the year.

Criteria

Affinity

It is most important that you support our mission. We hope that the work we do inspires you and motivates you to go above and beyond during your term as a committee member.

Capacity

Being a committee member of any organization requires time and attention—a fact we do not take for granted. We set the expectation to be an engaged and thoughtful member of a committee. Additionally, we want your service to fulfill and sustain you, rather than drain you.

Reflection

As a five-state community foundation serving LGBTQ+ communities, we strive to have committee members that reflect the vibrancy of our communities. We seek to have diversity of race, gender, orientation, class, age, and lived experience in our committee membership.
