As outlined in the bylaws, PEAK Grantmaking has four standing committees (Executive, Governance, Finance, and Audit), and the Board of Directors may designate and appoint additional committees, including advisory boards and task forces, to undertake the work of the organization (such as the Development Committee and the Strategy and Organizational Effectiveness Committee).
Committees may also establish sub-committees or working teams to facilitate the completion of responsibilities, but all work from those sub-groups must go through the full Committee before it is acted on or put before the full board. This includes our Nominating Committee which is a sub-committee of the Governance Committee.
View the Committee Charters below, which outline the committee responsibilities, authority, structure, composition, meetings, and assigned staff support:
- Audit Committee
- Development Committee
- Executive Committee
- Finance Committee
- Governance Committee
- Nominating Subcommittee
- Strategy and Organizational Effectiveness Committee
Where appropriate, PEAK Grantmaking Committees may include non-board member participants, in accordance with PEAK Grantmaking’s Non-Board Members on Committee Guidance. This is identified in each committee’s charter. All committees receive staff support to help facilitate their work.
