We’re looking for Board Members

We are seeking volunteer board members to fill vacancies on our Board of Directors.

THIS IS A VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY

Trash Free Maryland (TFM) is a statewide non-profit dedicated to our vision of a Maryland free of trash, where land and waterways are safe and healthy for all to enjoy. We advocate, educate, and unite communities to eliminate trash in Maryland. 

We are collaborative community partners, coalition-builders, and leaders advancing state and local trash policies that are evidence-based and rooted in community needs.


TFM is recruiting board members to join our Board of Directors for a three-year term. We have a small board and every director’s contribution matters. We are looking for engaged board members, and we are especially looking for professionals to lend their expertise and experience in:

  • Nonprofit Governance & Management

  • Fundraising & Development

  • Communications & Outreach/Marketing

  • Special Event Planning


What’s Involved

  • Board Meetings: Attend approximately 6 board meetings per year (online except for 1-2 in-person or hybrid meetings per year or as special projects arise).

  • Committee Participation: Actively serve on one board committee to guide and execute on specific projects.

  • Financial Contribution: Make a personally meaningful financial contribution to TFM

  • Community Presence: Attend and volunteer at occasional TFM events (1-2 per year).

  • Support and Promote Organizational Capacity and Reach: Increase the financial sustainability and public awareness of the organization and mission

  • Governance: Review annual plans and budgets to keep MBT mission-aligned, financially sustainable, and legally compliant.
