At Mali Rising one of the most important things a board member can do is to act as an ambassador for our work — we are small and we really rely on board members to be proud enough to share stories and engagement opportunities with friends and family. This is truly how our network of friends, volunteers, and ultimately donors will grow.
However, all board members also have multiple responsibilities. These responsibilities are true for any board member at any organization — including Mali Rising. So, please take 5 short minutes to watch this short video to refresh your understanding of the core duties you perform during your service. And thank you for doing them!
