Rice MBA students make their mark on Houston with nonprofit board service
For the fourth consecutive year, Rice University MBA students are making a mark on Houston with their involvement in nonprofit boards as part of the Jones Graduate School of Business Board Fellows Program.
The program matches Rice MBA students with Houston community-based nonprofit organizations. Students serve as nonvoting board members for either 12- or 18-month appointments and attend board sessions and relevant committee meetings under the mentorship of a current board member.
The program is mutually beneficial for both students and the organizations involved, said Donna Platt, associate director of development for the Jones School and the program’s coordinator.
