New Board of Advisors Brings Expanded Leadership to PASOs
PASOs is proud and honored to welcome our new statewide Board of Advisors—a vibrant, intelligent, diverse group of South Carolina leaders to help propel us onward as we continue to expand our presence and our programs. These twenty Board members from all over South Carolina serve as critical community champions for the organization. Members of the Board of Advisors share their gifts in service to our mission by providing PASOs with their professional expertise; their diverse perspectives; their connections to local, national or international resources, colleagues or peers; their philanthropic support; and other forms of needed assistance. Board members are represented on each of the three Board committees alongside additional partners and stakeholders: Strategic Visioning, Internal Governance, and Communications and Relationships.
