CHOICES Adds New Board Members to Take Mission to Next Level
|
The leadership team at CHOICES recently decided that it would be beneficial to our organization and the teens we serve to expand our board. So over the last few months we set out to build the best board out there…and did we ever make some great CHOICES! We have not only grown our board from seven to twelve members, but every person represents a crucial constituency for CHOICES, brings expertise in at least two relevant areas, and has a heart for teens. We now boast representatives from four major corporations, two nonprofits, a university and the community. Five are active CHOICES presenters. Three represent funders. And one participated in CHOICES as a teen 25 years ago…and can tell you every detail he learned and how it changed the course of his life!
We have expertise in education, accounting, finance, fundraising, nonprofit management, public relations, parenting, diversity, sales & marketing, volunteerism, investments, training and technology. We have a mix of age, gender, ethnicity and experience. All in all, we have serious horsepower, leverage and energy to take CHOICES to the next level!
We are delighted to introduce you to our wonderful CHOICES Board of Directors!
