Call for Board Members

The Jim Collins Foundation is a nonprofit organization founded in 2007 that works to provide funding to members of the transgender community towards the costs of their gender-confirming surgeries. The only organization of its kind, the Jim Collins Foundation is becoming nationally known for its advocacy work on behalf of the transgender community. We expect interest in our foundation to soar.

Because of our rapid growth, we are currently working to expand and diversify our Board of Directors. Board members will be expected to actively contribute to the work of the Foundation in its advocacy, administrative, and fundraising work.

We are particularly looking for individuals who possess some of the following skills, experience, and attributes:

• passion for working on behalf of transgender, transsexual, and gender-variant communities;
• demonstrated knowledge of the challenges that transgender people face in accessing health care and the importance of gender-confirming surgeries for those who require it for a healthy transition;
• a personal connection to, or a member of, the transgender, transsexual, or gender-variant communities;
• experience in fundraising on a grassroots, nonprofit, or corporate level;
• ability to attend quarterly Board meetings and to be communicative and responsive to fellow Board members.
• Experience in non-profit accounting and/or graphic design is a plus.

If you are interested in applying, please email your resume and letter of interest to info@jimcollinsfoundation.org. Applications will be accepted through March 31st on a rolling basis
