Who we are – Our Mission 

The Executive Volunteer Connector Service (EVCS), in affiliation with the John L. Grove College of Business at Shippensburg University, is a group of volunteer executives with extensive backgrounds in business, government, and non-profit experience.

Formed in 2011, the mission of the EVCS is to connect executive volunteers to local non-profit organizations to provide the necessary expertise for strengthening their capacity to serve their communities. This volunteer service recruits, and matches, specific volunteers who wish to give back to their communities through their unique contributions of knowledge, skills, and expertise. 

What we do – Our Purpose 

  1. We connect volunteer executives (on a project basis) with non-profits needing management and consultative services to advance their organization’s goals.
  2. We provide the expertise necessary for non-profit organizations to improve their capacity to serve their communities.
  3. We assist non-profit organizations in strengthening their leadership teams and Boards to fulfill their missions and advance their organization's goals.
