We currently have 22 members on our Lighthouse Board. We also have 2 separate 501(c)(3) subsidiary corporations that have additional board members – some overlapping but some unique. This is our New Life Properties, Inc. board which handles all of our real estate needs and capital expenditure budget, as well as our Lighthouse Beacon For Youth Foundation, Inc. board which oversees our endowment, investment policy, and other development related activities. We also have several committees. So all told we have likely 40 individuals serving Lighthouse as either a board or committee member. Board Requirements Board members are expected to attend at least half of all Board meetings during the year. There are typically 6. Board members are also encouraged to join at least one committee (or subsidiary Board) and make those meetings. Committees and subsidiary boards typically meet quarterly. Board members are expected to support the organization at a level comfortable for them. We seek 100% participation in our annual giving but that can definitely be at a level comfortable for each individual member. We also ask board members to help us open doors with contacts in the community and generally be ambassadors for Lighthouse. We have a brief document entitled "Commitment to Serve" which details the full set of expectations. I'm happy to share that with any interested candidate. Onboarding New board members are assigned a board Mentor to help them with onboarding issues and answer questions they might not be comfortable asking in front of the larger group. We also do a new board member orientation, offering that in April and October if we have new members. There is a formal board manual that we keep updated every 6 months to ensure relevance.

Please contact for more information. We require a specific amount of “give or get” for all board members. We strive for 100% board giving, but have no strict guidelines around financial contributions. -- Parent -- Add New Additional donation expectation information Although we do not have a set financial commitment, I believe most board members donate between $500 and $2,500 annually. This comes through going to events, supporting our gift drives, or just making a contribution. We definitely have some of our younger board members that do not contribute at that level, and have several board members who have given far in excess of those numbers.
