“Boardmatch has been a fantastic resource. I joined two boards in 2010 through boardmatch and helped two further charities with their strategic positioning and financial resourcing.

Notably, one of the charities I joined in 2010 had an average funding of €40k per year and is in line to raise €1m this year. They are a fantastic company, do great work in the community and deserve it. A lot of hard work ahead…”

“Thanks for introducing me to Boardmatch, it’s a great idea and it is well-implemented. As a result, we have found a fantastic Digital Marketing Manager. She is already making a big difference to Give and Buy.”

 ”We recently engaged Chris White to facilitate a corporate governance and strategy meeting with our Board of Directors. This exercise was extremely beneficial and was acknowledged as such by all who participated.

Chris has considerable knowledge and expertise in this area and is an excellent facilitator. He delivered a day-long programme facilitating a review of Board Governance against best practice. The outcome was a series of constructive recommendations coupled with practical advice on implementation.

I Would highly recommend Chris as a valuable resource to managers; CEO’s or Boards of Directors in the not-for-profit sector.”

“I found Boardmatch an invaluable centralised search tool for a charitable organisation that I could personally identify with.”

“I was blown away by the quality of candiates available on Boardmatch, I only wish I could have appointed all five candidates who had indicated an interest in joining our Board as Treasurer.”

“Boardmatch provided the Irish Hospice Foundation with a new member who is the Marketing Director for a large commercial organisation. This director has had an immediate impact in our branding and fundraising activities.”

“Home-Start is a very small local charity. We found using Boardmatch of great benefit in helping us locate a professional person who was willing to give his time and expertise for free on our Board of Directors. This saved us a lot of hours and some considerable money which we would have had to spend looking for advice and support.”

“Boardmatch has facilitated a win-win situation for me and the organisation I joined. I get the opportunity to be involved in the community sector doing something I’m good at and enjoy, while they avail of a volunteer who does something useful for them.”

“I found Boardmatch very useful. It was helpful that both sides could get an initial overview of the other before direct contact was made. I also found the people behind Boardmatch very anxious to make sure that the process functioned really well.”

“We are a small voluntary organisation providing community based services to adults with learning disabilities. Using Boardmatch has given us access to professional expertise that we could never afford to buy. This expertise has energised our organisation and driven it towards higher standards of performance excellence.”
