Join the Board

There is a seat for you at the table.

The Femi's Heart Foundation Board of Directors accepts applications for board and committee membership throughout the calendar year. The role of a board/committee member is critical to the growth and sustainability of the organization.

Why serve

Three reasons people say yes.

  • Service

    Steward the work

    Help shape governance, finances, and the trajectory of every programme we run.

  • Legacy

    Carry the legacy

    Your perspective extends Femi's reach into rooms we have not yet entered.

  • Commitment

    Build with us

    Board members commit to about four hours per month, plus the annual Gramercy Gala.
