    Description

    Monumental Impact is seeking volunteer Board Members who are ready to help strengthen and grow our nonprofit organization, community makerspace, and youth-to-adult learning programs.

    Board Members play an important leadership role in helping Monumental Impact build long-term sustainability, expand community connections, and open doors for fundraising, sponsorships, partnerships, and strategic opportunities.

    What You’ll Do

    As a Board Member, you will help:

    • Provide leadership, guidance, and oversight for Monumental Impact’s mission and long-term direction
    • Build community relationships with businesses, civic leaders, schools, nonprofits, foundations, and potential sponsors
    • Support fundraising efforts through introductions, sponsorship outreach, donor cultivation, grant connections, and community advocacy
    • Help identify opportunities that strengthen our makerspace, entrepreneurship programs, career readiness efforts, and community impact
    • Participate in board meetings, planning discussions, and organizational decision-making
    • Serve as an ambassador for Monumental Impact in the Tri-Lakes and greater Colorado Springs region

    What We’re Looking For

    We are especially interested in individuals who bring experience, relationships, or interest in areas such as:

    • Fundraising, sponsorships, grants, or donor development
    • Business, entrepreneurship, manufacturing, technology, or engineering
    • Education, workforce development, youth development, or career readiness
    • Community leadership, nonprofit governance, finance, legal, marketing, or operations
    • Local business and civic networks that can help expand Monumental Impact’s reach

    Prior nonprofit board experience is helpful, but not required. A willingness to engage, make introductions, and help move the mission forward matters most.

    Term

    Board Member terms are two years, beginning in July.

    Why Join

    Serving on the Monumental Impact Board is an opportunity to help shape a growing community organization that gives students, makers, entrepreneurs, and lifelong learners access to tools, mentors, hands-on learning, and real-world opportunities.
