The Board & Management

Mercy Relief is governed by a Board of Directors comprising corporate and social leaders from diverse religious and racial backgrounds.

The Board takes a non-executive role, providing advice and overseeing the direction and governance of Mercy Relief. It meets quarterly and appoints a standing Executive Committee to advise the Executive Director.

Separate committees made up of Board Directors oversee the internal process systems of the organisation.

Board Directors take turns to visit project sites overseas to understand the projects implemented and their impact on our beneficiaries.

The Chairman of the Board serves a maximum of two terms, each lasting two years. Mercy Relief is audited annually by external auditors whose service term is limited to five years.

Advisory Council

Members of the Advisory Council are appointed by the Board. They are past Board members who desire to continue to contribute to its development and growth.
