LITMA Board of Directors

 
David Levitt
 President
You’ve heard the statement that LITMA is an all-volunteer not-for-profit organization. What exactly does that mean? (Go ahead and click the links if you want to know more.)
 
Basically it means that LITMA exists in order to serve our charitable and educational mission . Although LITMA may sometimes make a profit, it cannot distribute that profit to shareholders, but rather must apply it to the benefit of the organization as a whole.
 
In an all-volunteer not-for-profit like LITMA, there is no Executive Director or other salaried staff.  Everyone you see running events or handling publicity is a volunteer who presumably has a “day job.” LITMA sometimes pays for specialized work by consultants, and of course we compensate our performers!
 
What is the role of the Board of Directors in managing LITMA?
All decision-making lies in the hands of the Board of Directors who delegate the day-to-day management of the organization to our Event Managers and other Key Volunteers.
 
The President of the Board of Directors,  has the responsibility and privilege of chairing the meetings of the Board of Directors. The president  also  serves as a spokesperson for the organization.
 
Each LITMA volunteer brings unique talents and interests to LITMA.
 
However, if LITMA is to grow, our volunteer workforce has to grow with it.
