In our ongoing commitment to be a compelling resource for the nonprofit sector, we use smorgasBoard to provide our friends with useful tools and perspectives on nonprofit leadership and governance. 

In the last 12 months, for example, we have been blessed with over 125,000 visitors to our
website.  Collectively, you logged over 1.3 million page views there, an astonishing number in light of the highly specific focus of BoardWalk's services. 

Most gratifying to us is that you downloaded over 77,000 copies of various documents that we have created (or, occasionally, borrowed) to support the work of nonprofit leaders and champions. 

Here in descending order are the top ten downloads from our website in the past 12 months (not including the Leadership Profiles we post for each client engagement).  In case you missed them the first time around, just click the highlighted text to open a printable copy:
