The Need
About 80% of charities are small in size and provide critical services to their local communities. Unfortunately, the COVID 19 pandemic has done serious damage to the charitable sector in North America:
- 140% of charities saw a reduction in donations
- 27% of charities closed
- 3About 1 million jobs were lost
- 4Approx. 70% of charities see strengthening their board as a top priority
Through BoardMatch, our core program, Altruvest recruits volunteers, trains them on their roles and responsibilities as a board member and matches them with a charity looking for someone with their skills and interests.
