Endowment Names Governance and Nominating Committee

U.S. Endowment for Forestry and Communities (the Endowment) Chairman Dick Molpus today named a three-person Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board.  The Committee will be chaired by David Thorud with David Dodson and Jim Rinehart serving as members.  The Endowment Board of Directors authorized creation of the committee during a regularly scheduled call in late January.  The Committee’s primary purposes will be to “determine the slate of director nominees for election to the Endowment’s Board of Directors, identify and recommend candidates to fill vacancies occurring between annual meetings,  and review, evaluate and recommend changes to the Endowment’s bylaws and other policies and programs as they relate to matters of governance.”
