AFGM Board & Committees

There’s More Than One Way to Serve

Supporting AFGM does not always mean becoming a mentor or joining the Board of Directors. Bring your experience, relationships, and time to a committee that helps young men and families thrive.

Your Skills Have A Place Here

Serve alongside the people moving AFGM forward.

Committee members work alongside the AFGM Board and leadership team on focused parts of the organization. It is a meaningful way to support the mission without taking on the full responsibilities of board service.

Ways To Contribute

Find your committee.

Choose the work that connects with your experience, interests, or community relationships.

Committee Service

You Don’t Have to Join the Board to Make a Difference

Maybe you believe in what AFGM is doing but are not ready to become a board member. That is okay.

Your experience in education, finance, fundraising, government, business, technology, data, events, communications, or community service could help AFGM serve more young people and families.

Committee service gives you a way to contribute your skills while learning more about AFGM and the community it serves.
