MISSION STATEMENT OF THE ALUMNI/DONOR ADVISORY BOARD
In an effort to be totally transparent and to take advantage of the knowledge and skills of our Alumni and Donors, the Silver Star Families of America have created this Advisory Board.
As Alumni and Donors you are stakeholders in this organization. As Alumni you have served your country and given of yourself. As Donors you have made possible our service to our wounded and ill. By bringing everyone together we hope to improve our services and our organization.
The Alumni/Donor Advisory Board will consist of 5 voting members and one non voting member who will be a liaison between the Board of Directors and the Advisory Board.
The liaison will be responsible for keeping the advisory board up to date on the inner workings of the SSFOA and will also be responsible for keeping the Board of Directors up to date on the advice of the Advisory Board.
The members of the Advisory Board will be appointed by the Founders and President of the Silver Star Families of America. Optimal membership should be three Alumni and two Donors.

1. To make themselves knowledgeable about the programs of the SSFOA and offer advice as to how the programs can be improved.

3. Offer their special insights to the Bod as Alumni and Donors as to where they would like to see the organization go in the future.
4. Act as advocates for the SSFOA **
** Due to this being newly created positions, the above is just a basic outline and will be fluid and added upon, as the position(s) are filled and feedback and input are considered by the Founders and the President of the SSFOA, to best fit the needs of the organization.
