Quad Cities Board Connections is a new networking series from the Hunt & Diane Harris Center for Nonprofit Excellence designed to connect individuals interested in board service with organizations that are seeking qualified professionals to serve on their boards.

Through a combination of structured networking and informal conversation, Board Connections creates opportunities for nonprofit leaders and community professionals to explore board, committee, and advisory service in a welcoming, engaging environment.

We are proud to launch the Board Connections series in partnership with John Deere, whose commitment to community leadership helps make this opportunity possible.

The event will bring together approximately 200 participants, including:

• Corporate professionals interested in serving on nonprofit boards, committees, or advisory groups.

• Nonprofit executives and board leaders seeking talented individuals to strengthen their organizations.

Participants will take part in guided networking designed to foster meaningful conversations and lasting connections, followed by time for additional informal networking.
