Active and knowledgeable committee members are extremely important for the health of a MAGIC Fund!
Committee members advise on important MAGIC Fund decisions, including investment and grant decisions.
Though expectations vary by fund, advisory committee members generally are expected to do the following:
-
Be an active member in the Project community by following recent news and participating in events.
-
Encourage individuals and entities to apply for grants.
-
Regularly meet with other committee members to vote on grant proposals and on investment decisions.
-
Reach out to community members and organizations to collect donations for the fund.
-
Help grow and support the Project community with educational materials.
-
Be an upstanding representative for the MAGIC Project Fund.
-
Abide by all MAGIC Grants policies.
Committee members should expect to spend several hours a week on their committee duties. We estimate about 150 hours per year is normal. If this is too much, please apply to be a voter instead.
