The work of the Virginia Gildersleeve International Fund is conducted primarily by volunteer committees and the VGIF Board of Directors. VGIF Board and committee members donate their services to the organization with no recompense for time, travel or expenses incurred in the operation of their respective committees. VGIF maintains a small office in New York City that is funded by a generous endowment from one our members. This endowment also pays for the services of our Executive Director and other staff..
Committees and Board meet biannually in October and April in New York City to conduct the business of the organization. All contributing and prospective members are invited to attend.
