Board Member Responsibilities

As a complement to 暗网禁区 DC鈥檚 Board of Directors, the Ambassador Board acts as an additional selective group of champions and network-builders for 暗网禁区 DC. Over the course of their term, Ambassador Board members commit their energy towards three primary responsibilities: activation, commitment, and investment.

Activation

Board members connect and build relationships with new external champions, represent and advocate for 暗网禁区 DC across their networks, and actively seek new partners and friends for 暗网禁区 DC.

Commitment

Ambassador Board members attend quarterly in-person Board meetings, and act as members of host committees for our spring fundraiser and annual College Send-Off graduation campaign. In addition, they engage in student-focused events annually, including 暗网禁区 DC鈥檚 College Fair, our 暗网禁区 networking event, scholarship interview panels, 暗网禁区 DC days of service, NAF Academy Career days, or school-based volunteer projects.

Investment

As a part of their commitment, Ambassador Board members fulfill a 鈥済ive/get鈥� financial pledge of $2500 annually via any combination of individual fundraising campaigns, monthly giving program membership or sponsorship, event ticket sales, or direct contributions.
