What happens at an Annual General Meeting?

An AGM is more than a mere assembly; it embodies the collective spirit and purpose of our organization. It’s a forum where every voice, from the seasoned veterans to the freshest recruits, resonates with equal importance. Here, transparency reigns supreme as financial reports are scrutinized, milestones assessed, and decisions made with the utmost clarity.

Become a Board Member!

Being a member of the Board of Directors (BoD) is an excellent way to be more involved in the shaping of the Greenhouse activities and gain valuable experience working and collaborating within a non-profit organization!

It means you will be responsible for working with the other board members and the collective to make some high-level decisions about finances, governance, policy and future projects. Board members help guide and maintain the vision of the organization by supporting staff members while they fulfill the day to day operations and providing structure and perspective to the larger function.
