Computer skills, especially Microsoft Excel. A familiarity with non-profit finances and/or fundraising would be a great asset. Some experience with QuickBooks would be great but not required.

Facilitate grant and funding applications and sign off on them. Provide financial advice on an as needed basis. Attend monthly board meetings (3rd Thursday of each month) and occassional special events.
