Join the KCinfertility Board
Help Make a Difference for Those Navigating Infertility
KCinfertility is looking for passionate, dependable individuals to join our volunteer Board of Directors. We are a working board, which means our board members don't simply attend meetings and make decisions—we actively do the work that makes our programs, events, support groups, and outreach possible.
We are looking for people who care about our mission, are willing to roll up their sleeves, communicate well, and can commit to being an active part of the team.
Our board currently meets monthly and works throughout the month in smaller committees. The time commitment averages approximately 10 hours per month, although it naturally ebbs and flows depending on the time of year and upcoming events.
What We Ask of Board Members
Commit to a two-year board term
Attend monthly board meetings and participate in committee work
Attend at least two KCinfertility support group meetings each year
Be dependable, organized, and willing to actively contribute
Communicate with the board and ask for help when needed
Attend KCinfertility events when possible. We understand that board members may not be able to attend every event.
Help advance KCinfertility's mission through your time, skills, ideas, and involvement
Help recruit sponsors, participants, volunteers, or supporters when opportunities arise, although fundraising and recruitment are not required
There is no financial contribution required to serve on the board.
Living in the Kansas City area is preferred, as many of our programs and events take place locally.
Current Board Opening:
Vice President — Event Leadership
We are looking for a Vice President who will take a primary leadership role in organizing and coordinating KCinfertility's events throughout the year.
Responsibilities include:
Helping plan and coordinate KCinfertility events
Working with committees and volunteers to make events successful
Coordinating event logistics and timelines
Communicating with vendors, sponsors, volunteers, and board members as needed
Helping identify and address event-related needs
Stepping in for the President when needed
The Vice President will work closely with the President and other board members throughout the year. While the VP may step in for the President when necessary, the primary focus of this position is event leadership and coordination.
What Makes a Good KCinfertility Board Member?
We are looking for people who are:
Dependable and follow through on commitments
Organized and willing to take initiative
Comfortable working as part of a team
Good communicators
Willing to ask questions and communicate when they need help
Ready to actively contribute rather than simply attend meetings
Passionate about supporting people navigating infertility
Open to learning and taking on new responsibilities
You don't have to know everything about infertility to make a difference. You don't need previous board experience, either. What matters most is that you're willing to show up, contribute, and work alongside others who care about this mission.
