Testimonials:
"I participated in the “Finance in the Board Room” series because I work with non-profits and am not a numbers lover. It was excellent, easy to understand, with input from real life executive directors and small enough class size to give one the opportunity to get to know the other participants. Really well done!"

Additional community leaders will serve as presenters and panelists.
