Here are general guidelines for a board member. This is either for a new position or to fill an existing vacancy.

 

  • FEEF has identified a need/position that requires a dedicated FEEF director.

  • The potential member should have been actively volunteering at school for 6 months or more.

  • Has demonstrated ability to lead volunteer based activities and work well with other volunteers. Must have volunteered on at least one FEEF event.

  • FEEF board recommends potential candidates attend at least 3 board meetings to better understand how the board operates.

 

Ideally, we would like potential board members to shadow existing board members for at least a year before assuming the role. This ensures a smooth transition for everyone. If you are interested in serving on the board, please send us an email at faria.feef@gmail.com. We will work with you to figure out the best match that effectively utilizes your passions and expertise.

 

Please include a small write up:

  • Something about you (education, job, etc), the grades your kids are studying in

  • The year your child joined Faria and when you expect to graduate

  • Prior volunteering experience (Inside and Outside Faria)
