The tenth series of Community Builders of Greene County, a program aimed at training people who are interested in volunteering with nonprofit organizations, begins Sept. 9.

The program will meet every other Monday through Dec. 16. Classes will be from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. each evening at the Greene County Career and Technology Center, 60 Zimmerman Drive, Waynesburg. Applications are being accepted through Aug. 28.

Community Builders provides training for persons interested in volunteering their time and talents to support Greene County nonprofit organizations. The nonprofit leadership program explores leadership, nonprofit governance and boards of directors, financial management, communication and team work, strategic planning, public relations, grantwriting, fundraising and volunteer engagement.

The series is geared to helping citizens become better volunteers and employees with nonprofit organizations in the community, whether it be through activities such as serving on non-profit boards, volunteering on fundraising committees, or serving as a program staff. Each session is conducted by one or more local experts in the field of that week’s topic.

Each participant is asked to pay a $150 tuition fee which covers some of the cost of their materials and a meal during the eight session course. In some instances, the participant’s employer or organization may cover all or part of the fee for their employees or board members. However, a limited number of scholarships are available on a need basis for one-half of the tuition.

Applications and schedule are available online at http://www.cfgcpa.org/commbuilders.html.
