Open Positions on the YES Board
The YES Foundation operates with the support of a large network of volunteers, including a working board that meets monthly and coordinates all functions of the foundation.
The YES Board is composed of a diverse group of professionals who play a crucial role in steering the operations of our fundraising program throughout the year. Below is a list of currently available positions on the board.
If you are interested in joining the board or volunteering, contact Lisa Betancourt, askyes@yestokids.org or speak with your school site lead.

The site leads are the face of YES at their school and in the community. They act as the liaison between their site and the YES Foundation. There are 5 site leads in total on the Yes Board: Manor, Brookside, Hidden Valley, Wade Thomas and White Hill.

This school site lead has a real opportunity to engage with an older demographic of students. This site lead will need to help support the strategy for both parent and student engagement.
