Operating Board of Directors
Each year, the Entertainment Industry Foundation enlists the help of nearly 100 employees, representing more than 40 companies within the entertainment industry, who volunteer their time to review grant applications submitted to the Foundation. Working through seven Grant Review Committees and meeting over a two month period during Summer, they extensively review grant applications, attend site visits, and perform financial reviews of all the applicants.
