“The number of our people sitting on these types of boards increased from FY14, when 451 individuals held directorships. Results are based on each individual's unique experiences and commitment to the boards they're on. This increase can also be attributed to our continued dedication to a board match program in collaboration with Altruvest Charitable Services that helps our staff to be matched to board positions more efficiently.”
