Cancer Lifeline’s mission is to optimize the quality of life for people living with cancer. We define those people as survivors, friends, family, caregivers and co-workers. Cancer Lifeline’s Board is responsible for fulfillment of the organization’s mission and the legal accountability for its operation. The Board (i) establishes and implements a clear organizational mission,(ii) oversees Cancer Lifeline’s financial decisions and development, (iii) develops, oversees, supports, and evaluates a strategic plan for Cancer Lifeline, (iv) hires, oversees and supports an Executive Director, (v) represents the community to the organization and the organization to the community and (vi) institutes policies and procedures for the Board’s operation under Washington State law.
Time Commitment:
• Attend and participate in Board meetings. Typically, Board meetings are held at the Dorothy S. O’Brien Center, 6522 Fremont Avenue North in Seattle.
• Serve on a Board committee. Standing committees include Executive, Finance & Investment, Marketing and Nominations. The Board also establishes ad hoc committees and task forces (in particular for the annual spring fundraising event) as needed.
• Fundraising. Board Directors actively participate in fund development, working with the organization’s Executive Director to participate in fundraising events or activities.
• Attend at least two Cancer Lifeline events per year (e.g. spring fundraising event, volunteer appreciation event, art show openings, fall fundraising event, etc.)
Financial Commitment:
Each Board Director is expected to make a personal annual contribution. Our expectation is 100% participation with each Board Director giving at a level that is significant to him/her.
• Annual Spring Fundraiser. Each year, Cancer Lifeline holds a benefit that raises significant funds to support Cancer Lifeline’s programs. Board Directors are expected to participate in this event and to invite their networks to support their fundraising efforts.
