Moishe/Kavod House is moving ahead with its election of board members for the coming year. See below for a timeline of the board election process.

Application:

If you wish to apply for a board position, please click here to submit your application online by the end of August 2009. Please keep in mind the board positions.

Board Position Descriptions:

Click here for descriptions of the 5 Board Positions (in addition to the 4 housemates, who will also sit on the board), which are President, Head of Membership, Communications Chair, Finance Chair and Development Chair.

Please contact elections@moishehouse.org with any questions. Also, as outlined, below, members of the Transition Team will be able to have 1:1 meetings with prospective applicants. If you would like to “nominate” someone to have a 1:1 about potential board membership, please contact elections@moishehouse.org.

As a reminder, this is the timeline for how it will all go down:

• August 1st: The Board Application will be posted to the Moishe Kavod Web site (http://www.kavodhouse.com/). It will be a Google form that you can complete directly online.
• August 31st: Deadline for applications. If you are interested in running for the Board, make sure you get your application submitted by the end of August!
• September 1st: Completed applications will be posted on the Moishe Kavod Web site for the community to view ahead of the election. This will be an early way for the voting members to get to know Board candidates ahead of the actual election
• September 1st – September 12th: Early voting at the Moishe Kavod house will be available for all members unable to attend the election party on September 13th. Paper ballots will be available at the house if you want to drop by and vote early.
• Sept 13: Moishe Kavod House Annual Kick-Off BBQ and Board Election. All members are invited for a kick-off party for our upcoming year. There will be food, music, drinks and (of course) our first ever Board election. The actual election will be proceeded by a “meet the candidates” forum, which will serve as an opportunity to hear from those running from Board positions.

As a reminder, in order to run for the Board or vote in the election you have to be a member. Lucky thing that becoming a member is as easy as completing this form on the Web site (http://www.kavodhouse.com/resources/membership/) and putting a little (very little) skin in the game in the form of your membership donation ($36-$50).
