The Board of Directors is a group of volunteers dedicated to oversee the strategic direction of the food bank. Membership of the board consists of representatives from a cross-section from our community and are recruited annually. The role of the Board is to establish policies, focus on long-term goals, and manage funds in a fiscally responsible manner. The term is 2 years, but may be reappointed for a further term or terms.
