Experienced Committee and Board members may nominate volunteers to serve on the Foundation’s Finance, Grantmaking, and Scholarship Committees.

If you have any questions about completing this form, please contact our President & CEO, Sara Bell at 828-859-5314 or sbell@polkccf.org.


Details & Instructions:

Primary consideration in selecting potential members of various committees will be given to the need of the particular committee and the broad representation of the community in committee memberships.

We value volunteers whose prior service demonstrates a knowledge of the needs of our community and organizations and who have a significant attachment to Polk County or Landrum.

Some of the roles and attributes that the Foundation seeks in its volunteers are: Respectful, Good Attendance, Good Communicator, Thoughtful, Fair-Minded, Strategist, Service-Minded, Objective, Detail-Oriented, Understands Confidentiality, Visionary, Good Ambassador, Critical Thinker.

We ask that you please not make promises to anyone you nominate. Every year, we find ourselves unable to find places for all of the worthy candidates who are nominated. Your nomination, while valuable, does not guarantee selection. Your candidate must be known to at least two Foundation volunteers who can comment on the value of the candidate as a board or a committee member.

If you have any questions regarding these funds, please contact the President & CEO, Sara Bell at 828-859-5314 or sbell@polkccf.org.

Thank you for helping us continue to build our team of talented volunteers.
