Board of Directors

I just got a call from a past client, whom I couldn't help because of some credit issues. He informed me that I have been nominated to serve on the Board of Directors for a Haitian Organization he is part of, and wanted to know if I was interested, I replied that I was honored, but had a few questions.....

1) Do I need to be Haitian to be a member ? I am not so wanted to be sure

2) What are my responsibilities ? Self- explanatory

3)Meetings, Seminars, etc. ? Will I be holding them, if so how often, who pays for room rental

4) What do I need to do if elected? I had to write a 1-2 paragraph biography on myself and what I have done for the community.

Did I miss anything ?

What else would you have asked if in my shoes ? I consider it an honor to be considered and definitely want to do it, and have even written a biography like he asked in case I do accept the invitation.

Elections are 1st Saturday in May...

I would say you need to check it out yourself as far as the validity of the organization.  See if you can find their website or any other info on it.  That should help you decide also.

Minette the problem is they are just forming it now, so I will be part of the ground breaking organization.

This will be a brand new organization !

Scott, to be part of the formation could be rewarding. Best of luck to you!

Duane Thank-you and I am considering accepting the offer, but of course want to be sure in my mind at least that it is right.

We have a large number of Haitians moving into the Danbury area, and it would be very rewarding.....

Just need to get some more advice from close friends, fellow loan officers, and Realtors I work with, as well as the great members of AR before I say 100 % YES.

OK so I found out through some research that they are backed by the local CACD and that all Board Members are fully Insured and protected. So that relieved some concerns. We meet anywhere from once a month to once every 3 months.

Not only am I on the Board, I am also the Treasurer.

We are new so a lot of meetings and committees to be formed.
