Tonight I was elected to the first board of Toronto350.org, which is in the process of incorporating as a non-profit.
Does anyone have experience being on the boards of non-profit organizations? I would be grateful if people could direct me toward some useful sources of information on how boards work and the responsibilities of directors. We also need to finalize our bylaws, so guidance along those lines would also be appreciated.
P.S. Toronto350.org has an ongoing donation drive. Donations will go toward our campaign work, which is all volunteer-driven.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.
