Greetings Rastafari
I had posted a couple strongs ago about how JAH CHILDREN organization needed a web designer. We found that person, thankhs to this forum.
So now I am posting about our needs for another position to be filled, and that is the role of a Director on the Board of Directors.
A Board of Directors makes decisions for the organization, and in our case meets electronically to hold discussions and votes. We have 7 director positions and right now we are looking to fill one of them.
This is an excerpt from our Bylaws explaining the roles of a Director:
