Initiate your board search and identify a board match that reflects your interests by selecting one or both of the following options:

  • Once you clarify your preferences our board search advisor identifies board leads for your review – you then select one of more option(s) of interest and our board search advisor works with you to facilitate introduction(s) to the board nomination representative(s). Our board search advisor is available for consultation, support, and follow up through the application process as needed


The BML program provides an innovative governance framework that participants can use to energize their boards

In keeping with our mission we encourage all BML program participants to apply their shared leadership skills through community board involvement and to act as change agents through their boards as needed

What's New?

Katrina Follows K2 for Altruvest is a fundraising initiative organized by Rob Follows, Founder and Chair, and the Altruvest team with the objective of increasing awareness of Altruvest and inspiring new contributions that will ultimately help hundreds of charities improve their capacity and performance.

K2 is known as the Savage Mountain due to the difficulty of ascent, the second-highest mountain after Everest; only 299 people have climbed it compared to about 2600 individuals that have climbed Everest. All contributions will go directly to the Fund as all expedition costs will be paid by Rob Follows and STS Capital Partners. This climb symbolizes the journey that charities must take on a daily basis. Please join us in our efforts to raise the awareness and the dollars to help Altruvest continue to build stronger charities and communities
