Thank you for your interest in board membership at 1000 Friends of Oregon.
Board service
Who: Community members living outside of the Willamette Valley, but we encourage everyone to apply.
What: Volunteer opportunity with 1000 Friends of Oregon to serve as a board member for a three-year term.
When: Board members meet five times per year and serve on at least one board committee that meets once per month.
Where: Board meetings are on Zoom half the time and in-person half the time at different locations across the state. Committee meetings are on Zoom.
Why: We are looking for community members who have a combination of lived experiences (geographic location, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, and/or physical ability) and professional experiences (working lands, law, land use planning, transportation, housing, finance, communications, fundraising, organizational development, movement building, DEI, and/or policy) that may serve to inform the work of 1000 Friends – and in turn help make Oregon a better place for everyone.
How: Read our board member job description to see the ways the 1000 Friends board makes change happen.
