honorary board

An honorary board is a group of individuals who are recognized for their distinguished contributions or service to an organization, typically a nonprofit or community organization. Members of an honorary board do not have formal responsibilities or the authority to make decisions, as they often serve in a more symbolic or advisory capacity. Their role is to lend credibility to the organization, provide guidance, and help with fundraising or networking efforts. The status of being on an honorary board is usually conferred as a mark of esteem, and members may include notable leaders, philanthropists, or experts in relevant fields who support the mission of the organization.
