Hi Kirill, my understanding is that Affcom functions
under the Legal
department, much like the Individual Engagement Grants Committee functions
under the Grantmaking department. Is that so, and if not, which department
is responsible for Affcom.
Those two committees are completely different. Affcom is a self operating
committee created by the board and, as far as know, reports directly to the
board while IEG is a committee created by staff (in this case the
Grantmaking group) and they, understandably, run it (I have no knowledge of
how much community members like yourself help do so of course and it
certainly wouldn't surprise me if it is also partially or mostly self
operating).
