About Us
We’re a 100% volunteer-run conservation organization working along the Minnesota River. We restore land, support youth leadership through our award-winning Green Crew, and bring people together around environmental action, art, and community. We care deeply about using our resources wisely so we can keep doing this work for the long haul.

The Ask (Plainly Stated)
We’re looking for one or two finance-minded people who enjoy thinking critically about money — not managing it day-to-day, but stepping back and asking smart questions.

If you like looking at a portfolio and saying:

“What’s the risk here?”

“What’s this money for?”

“Does this still make sense?”

…this role is for you.

What This Is (and Is Not)
✔ A chance to bring perspective, not paperwork
✔ A working conversation with thoughtful people
✔ A few hours, a few times a year

✖ Not bookkeeping
✖ Not fundraising
✖ Not legal or fiduciary liability
✖ Not a heavy lift

What You’ll Actually Do

Meet quarterly with a small group (Vice President, Treasurer, and a few volunteers).

Review the Chapter’s investment picture at a high level.

Talk through balance, risk exposure, and long-term sustainability.

Offer recommendations and “gut checks,” not directives.

Help the Board make clearer, calmer decisions about money.

Who This Tends to Fit Well

Someone in finance, investing, accounting, or wealth management

A semi-retired or retired professional who still enjoys thinking, but not managing

A values-driven person who wants their experience to matter

Someone who likes being a trusted voice, not the person “in charge”

Time Commitment

Quarterly meetings

Light prep beforehand

Respectful of your time and boundaries

Why This Matters
Good conservation work fails when money decisions are rushed, opaque, or misaligned.
Your perspective helps us stay steady, ethical, and effective — and helps protect the work our volunteers and youth are doing on the ground.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’d like to give back using my judgment, not my weekends,” this is that opportunity.

The Twin Cities Gay Men’s Chorus (TCGMC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization governed by an all-volunteer Board of Directors. The Board brings together individuals with diverse experience across corporate, nonprofit, education, and community leadership, including members of the Chorus. Together, the Board safeguards TCGMC’s mission and values while providing strategic oversight of the organization’s direction and long-term health.

Our Board is very much a “working board” whose members contribute directly to various tasks and efforts that assist the chorus in advancing its mission. As someone interested in joining our Board, you might have questions about what this work includes! Please see the FAQs below:

What is the makeup of the Board of Directors?

The size of the board varies, but is typically comprised of around 15 Directors. Our bylaws require 50% of those Board Directors to be performing members of the Chorus. The Executive Director and Artistic Director serve as ex officio (non-voting) members of the Board. Additionally, the performing membership votes on a President and Vice-President every year, both of whom serve on the Board during the year they are in office.

How long is a term on the Board?

Once elected to the Board, Directors serve a three-year term. Directors may serve two consecutive terms in a row (for a total of six years). Once you have served two terms, you must then vacate your position for at least one year. After that vacancy, you are eligible to be elected to the Board again!

Does the Board have a leadership structure?

The Board is led by a team of four officers. Those officers include the Board Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer. The Board officers plus the membership President make up the Board’s Executive Committee, which governs the organization between Board meetings and handles personnel matters.

How is the Board organized?

The Board is comprised of five standing committees: Marketing, which promotes the work of the Chorus; Governance, which oversees the Board’s functions and growth; Finance, which manages the accounting of the Chorus; Resource Development, which supports the financial sustainability of the Chorus; and Membership, which ensures the engagement and satisfaction of performing members.

What is expected of me as a Board member?

In your first year on the Board, we typically expect you to serve on one of the above-mentioned standing committees. As you progress through your term, you may have the opportunity (and we may have the need!) for you to chair one of those committees, or to step into a Board officer role.

Board meetings are required to occur quarterly, but typically take place monthly for 2 hours. The “Board book” (a compilation of committee reports and the agenda for the board meeting) is made available to the Board prior to each Board meeting, and Directors are expected to consult those reports prior to the meeting. Additionally, most committees meet monthly for roughly an hour.

Is there a required financial contribution from Board members?

There is no formal ‘buy-in’ or monetary contribution when you join the Board. We do expect Directors to contribute to our fundraising and resource development efforts, such as identifying new funding streams and promoting fundraising efforts. Currently, we do have a 100% giving board at a variety of levels that are significant to each member.

If interested in serving, please send a resume and cover letter outlining your interest and experience by Wednesday, February 11th to:

The Owner Surrender Coordinator is responsible for working with local families who need to surrender their animal to Ruff Start Rescue. Whoever takes this role will need more than just a basic knowledge of animal behavior - they need to be able to read between the lines and feel comfortable asking thoughtful, sometimes probing questions to fully understand the pet and the situation. The goal is to ensure we’re bringing appropriate animals into the program - ones that we can realistically support and set up for success in their new forever home. The OS Coordinator works through the entire process of bringing an animal into the rescue. Beginning with collecting information from the surrenderer (images, vet records, etc.), networking the animal in the private RSR Animals Needing Fosters Page, and getting foster commitment. You also may be asked for help coordinating the transfer of the animal into the rescue as well. Once the animal is with their foster, work with an Intake Admin to add them to the website and notify vetting and intake of the new addition. There can be a lot of back and forth in the role so daily check-ins to your RSR email are required.

Time Commitment: 3-5 hours a week or 30-45 minutes daily (weekday)

Responsibilities:

Logging into email, facebook and RescueGroups daily

Review owner surrender applications and look for red flags

Ask thorough questions to better understand the animal and the situation 

Lining up fosters for the animals that are chosen to come into rescue

Sending owner surrender agreements

Work with Intake Admin to perform an intake on the animal by adding to the website and sending out an announcement email to intake, vetting and the FM involved

The Reservation Assistant works under and helps the Reservation Coordinator. They will work on getting the animal information uploaded into database(s), and sent to the vetting and intake team. They will go to the transport location to take lead and bring supplies for fosters if needed. They will also gather any paper records that come with each animal to make sure they get to the vetting team.

The Tech for Seniors initiative is dedicated to getting tablets into the hands of isolated older adults who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford one themselves. During the pandemic older adults who were already experiencing isolation suddenly became further challenged to remain connected when they were cut off from the outside world. In best efforts to alleviate the devastating loneliness, Tech for Seniors was launched. Volunteers pre-load donated tablets with video conferencing software, networking opportunities, several mind-occupying apps, and other entertainment options. The in-store purchasing function may also be disabled so less tech savvy seniors are not exploited by scammers.

Tech for Seniors, a program of Gifts for Seniors, offers two programs in pursuit of our mission to alleviate social isolation and loneliness.

 This opportunity is available throughout the year! Thank you!!!
