Board of Directors and Key Staff
Child Aid board members bring a range of experience and expertise to our work. They come from diverse backgrounds, but have in common one simple belief: that every child deserves the chance to improve his or her life. Board members all donate their time and expertise, and all make significant monetary donations to the organization. This support and dedication forms the foundation upon which the Child Aid community is built.
