i got two emails today about being on a not-for-profit board.

one email outlines the responsbilities of the board member, the # of commitments, etc. And ask for a written application letter, college information (year graduated, degree, etc), if you have ever attended any of their events, and your resume.

the other outlines all of the monies they expect you to contribute. which includes an annual leadership "grant" of at least $1k; the number of events, and tickets, you have to buy during the year; the number of times you would need to host events and that the cost of those events is on you; and the number of items purchased/donations you will be required to make at those events (all of which cannot be counted against your annual leadership grant).

I feel like these two entities might both be approaching this incorrectly, but what do I know.
