Recently Humanity+ board members Sonia Arrison, and Kristi Scott resigned. We are sorry to see them leave but we are also thankful for the contributions they both made. We wish them well in their endeavors.
To bring the board back to full operating capacity, and to fulfill the organization’s constitution, we are now asking for nominations for new board member candidates. To stand in the election for these two open seats, the candidates – who can also nominate themselves – must be supporting or sustaining members of Humanity+ in good standing, and must send their statements of candidacy via email to the Secretary. The duties of the Board Members are defined in the constitution and bylaws of the organization, and from an operational point of view they are currently expected to participate in email discussion and be present in monthly phone board meetings. The term of the two new members will end at the time the term of the members they are substituting.
Nominations close 6th of August. We’ll then provide a bio on each candidate and ask for our membership to vote on who you think would best serve the organization as we carry Humanity+ into the future. Voting will be open for two weeks, after which we’ll and announce the new board members to you all. Just as the nominations, voting also is reserved to supporting or sustaining members in good standing: this is the perfect time to become a member, or to renew you lapsed membership, and support Humanity+!

[UPDATED: "and must send their statements of candidacy via email to the Secretary" to clarify the nomination procedures]
