For
more information about serving as a director, please send email to NCF’s
Nomination Committee Chair, Chris Cope at ccope@ncf.ca and Sandy Campbell at
wordsmith@ncf.ca, expressing your interest and briefly describing
yourself. A Nomination Committee member
will be in touch to provide more information and to answer questions.
Serving
as an NCF board member is a way for experienced and accomplished individuals to
give back to their community. Tens of
thousands of people in the National Capital region were introduced to the
internet by not-for-profit NCF. The NCF
Board of Directors ensures that NCF will meet the needs of tens of thousands of
people in years to come.
As
an alternative to serving as a board member, you may wish to add you name to a
list of “stand-by volunteers”, available, informally, from time to time to
advise the Board on matters calling for specialized expertise and an informed
opinion.
It
would be a most valuable contribution to NCF to help make available occasional
access to a bank of experienced and knowledgeable volunteers. You'd naturally only be available at your
convenience and as your schedule permits, and would only be called upon on an
"as the need arises basis" for specific advice on matters in your own
field.
