“Boards are trustees at the center of the organization, surrounded by staff, volunteers and community. Not a top driven hierarchy of directors”

Foundation Board of Trustees

Board members are required to commit to a 'Code of Ethics' policy, 'Conflict of Interest' policy and the adoption of a host of policies that ensure a culture of transparency, accountability and governance above reproach. Board Development is an on-going process and every opportunity to improve governance, accountability, transparency and public service to the community is explored.

Board Trustees serve a one-year terms and may serve up to a maximum of six consequetive terms. Elections are held in the month of July. Meetings are generally 90 minutes, one-evening a month. The board has evolved to a governing board with the enhanced operation of staff, both unpaid volunteers and an Executive Director. A large portion of our volunteers have been with the Foundation for several years which serves as a testament to the leadership and operational efficiencies of the organization.

The Foundation is registered with GuideStar and Charity Check, a non-profit validation clearinghouse, and is an active member of the Long Beach Non-Profit Partnership. People interested in joining the board should request a Board Member Prospectus from the Foundation by calling (562) 987-5200. While the current trend in the third sector is smaller, more efficient boards, the Foundation maintains a board size of six to twelve members on average. Board "open house" mixer events occur a few times a year. The process of installing new additional board members from a cross-section of our Long Beach community.occurs a few times a year.
