The primary roles of a Council of Advisors member include the following:
   

Individual Financial Contribution
As members of the Council of Advisors are able, they will be asked to make individual contributions to the Foundation.  Financial support from those closest to the Foundation demonstrates to others that the vision and purpose of the organization is strongly backed by those involved.
   

Regional Support and Representation
By bringing together contacts, associates and friends to learn about the AMIGOS program, members can help the Foundation achieve a truly national reach.  Possible opportunities for reaching new supporters would be hosting dinners or informational gatherings to expose each member’s circle of acquaintances to the positive impact of AMIGOS and the ways the Foundation plans to support that impact.

   
Long-Term Directional Planning
Advisors will be instrumental in determining the long-term goals and the appropriate role of the Foundation through the many phases of building and maintaining the endowment. 

During 2006, Trustees will be recruiting the initial group of advisors.  The target number of members for the Council of Advisors is 50-80 individuals from across the United States.
