Members of the Board of Directors serve three-year terms and are elected annually by the voting electorate as per GGC’s By-Laws. The voting electorate consists of current members of the Board Directors, Provincial Commissioners and the National Youth Council. In addition to setting GGC’s strategic direction and providing oversight on complex legal, governance, risk management and financial matters, Board Directors take a great deal of time to carefully consider what’s in the best interest of girls, volunteers and GGC as a whole to ensure our organization is relevant, growing and sustainable.
