New Board Perspectives

 

Adapted from Episcopal Relief & Development

Episcopal Relief & Development has announced four new members of its board of directors:

“Effective leadership of Episcopal Relief & Development — whose programs touch millions of people in nearly 40 countries throughout the world — requires board members who are knowledgeable, engaged, and proactive leaders in their fields. Our newest board members more than fit that profile,” said Neel Lane, chairman of the board. “As we live into the new strategic plan for 2017 and beyond, the diversity of perspectives represented on our board will enable us to rise to the challenges of becoming a more powerful player in the international development space while remaining true to our Episcopal Church roots.”

“I offer deep thanks to Neel and all of our board members for their continued excellence in leadership, and a joyful welcome to our new members who are joining at an exciting time in the development of our organization,” said Rob Radtke, president of Episcopal Relief & Development. “I am grateful that we can draw on the knowledge and experience of all of our members — both lay and ordained, those coming from not-for-profit and corporate sectors and those who understand how we as a faith-based organization can fit into the larger international development sphere — as we strengthen our ability to do our work on behalf of all Episcopalians.”
