MEET OUR TEAM
We have a small and mighty team of dedicated volunteers who serve as board members and trustees. We also have a Communications Consultant, who helps to keep the administrative side of North Kitsap Schools Foundation running smoothly. Learn more about how you can make a difference in our community by becoming a board member or a volunteer today!
TRUSTEE RESPONSIBILITIES
The board of trustees is both a working and a governing board. Trustees are not compensated for their service. Members of the board organize and manage multiple fundraisers throughout the year that are directed at all segments of the community and are carried out through multiple channels. Personal contact with potential donors is considered a vital element in successful fundraising.
