General Board

General Board members play a large role in CommuniTech. While they learn more about the organization and philosophy behind CommuniTech, they participate as leaders in many CommuniTech activities. These activities can be based on fundraising, professional collaborations and outreach, environmental awareness, local and international opportunities, advertising, and service. General Board members are also encouraged to start a service project of their own. The Executive Board provides full assistance, guidance, and resources for all CommuniTech project initiatives. Afterwards, active General Board members become Executive Board members.

 

Members:
Angela Mu (past president)
Shin Jing Lim (past mentoring chair)

 

General Board positions are open. We do not have a cap on the number of General Board members we can have.
