Management

VAB is managed by a fully volunteer Board of Directors elected for a period of two years at the Annual Meetings. VAB officials comprise a President, Secretary and Treasurer, all from volunteer Directors, elected by the Board every two years. The terms of both the Directors and the officials are renewable based on mutual discussions. There are provisions in the Bylaws for the Board of Directors to be supported by two other Boards, namely a Board of Advisors and a Board of Patrons. Although we have some Advisors and Patrons, these Boards have not yet been organized as VAB operations are still in early stages. However, VAB has recruited several Associates and ad hoc volunteers to carry on ongoing specific activities like, editing, book keeping, fundraising etc

VAB issues monthly bulletins through e-mails and publishes annual report and three Newsletters a year. VAB accounts are audited and submits tax return to IRS.
