About AIM&nbsp;<a href="https://autisminmind.org/" target="_blank">https://autisminmind.org/</a> Autism In Mind Children’s Charity (AIM) was founded in 2011 by Suki Choi, who aimed to provide children with autism an equal opportunity in life. The charity began with just one child. When Suki first started her daycare business in Markham, she was approached by a family whose son had been on the government waitlist for autism therapy for four years. Moved by their situation, Suki organized a fundraiser. The generous response from the community and daycare parents inspired her to do even more. Suki and a team of volunteers began fundraising on behalf of other local families to help their children access professional therapy. They also organized free Social Saturdays for children with autism. The momentum from these small acts of kindness grew rapidly. Within just a few years, AIM became a registered charity in Canada and emerged as one of the leading service providers for children with autism in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). AIM transitioned from being solely volunteer-driven to a team of over 60 full-time staff members, offering a multidisciplinary approach to providing direct services for families and children with autism. Our Values<ul><li>Every child deserves the chance to learn, connect, dream, grow, and shine.</li><li>Community is a driving force in creating awareness, acceptance, and change.</li><li>Meeting families’ needs means understanding where they are now before guiding them forward.</li><li>Little things are never really little so we should celebrate every milestone.</li></ul>Responsibilities of the Board<ul><li>Provide strategic governance to the organization, ensuring that its mission, vision, and values are upheld.</li><li>Attend all Board meetings and participate independently and knowledgeably in deliberations.</li><li>Enhance the organization’s public image.</li><li>Lead and support fundraising efforts and resource development.</li><li>Stay informed about committee matters, prepare thoroughly for meetings, and review and comment on minutes and reports.</li><li>Contribute to the development of policies that guide the organization toward its strategic goals.</li><li>Operate with integrity and credibility, demonstrating a passion for improving the lives of individuals that we serve.&nbsp;</li><li>Approve the annual budget and audit reports, and review quarterly activities as presented in the financial reports.</li><li>Build collegial working relationships with other Directors and committee members to foster productive and effective meetings and outcomes.</li><li>Review strategies and contribute to annual operating plans through constructive input.</li><li>Cultivate relationships with corporate and community partners to support the outreach effort.</li><li>Participate in AIM fundraising and other relevant special events.</li><li>Assess the performance of the Board as the governing body of the organization.</li></ul>Time Commitment:<ul><li>The Board meets 4-8 times per year</li><li>Each Director should be available to serve on at least one committee</li><li>Directors are expected to serve, at least, one 2-year term</li></ul>Qualifications:<ul><li>Demonstrated professional, executive or leadership experience and accomplishments in business, government, philanthropy, or the non-profit sector</li><li>Savvy diplomatic skills and a natural affinity for cultivating relationships and persuading, convening, facilitating, and building consensus among diverse individuals</li><li>Excellent communication, organizational and interpersonal skill</li></ul>An understanding of, or experience in, either of the following specialties will be seen as an asset:<ul><li>Finance/Accounting</li><li>Legal</li><li>Human Resources</li><li>Real Estate Development Industry</li><li>Digital Marketing</li></ul>
