Selected candidates will be on the ballot for election to the Houston-NEDA Board of Directors if they submit a nomination form by November 20th, 2026, or earlier.

Declaration

  1. I solemnly declare that, at present, I am not a member or an office bearer of any other NED Alumni chapter in the US, and I am interested in seeking/maintaining Lifetime Membership of Houston-NEDA, and I am also seeking a Board of Directors position only with Houston-NEDA. With this form. I agree to pay a Lifetime Membership fee to Houston-NEDA before taking the oath, and, as a successful candidate, an additional donation of $500 to Houston-NEDA, per the bylaws, during my term on the BOD. Existing Lifetime members are not required to pay these dues.
  2. I solemnly declare that if I am a past or present office holder of Houston-NEDA, then I will abide by all applicable bylaws of Houston-NEDA in the proper transfer of all records and properties of Houston-NEDA to the Election Committee before the election or right after the election to the new BOD. I assure the Election Committee that I will not abuse any available power or resources at my disposal due to my current or past officer position with Houston-NEDA. I assure the Election Committee that I have no outstanding financial dues pending with the Treasurer of Houston NEDA.
  3. I solemnly declare that I will participate actively on a voluntary basis in all activities of the Houston NEDA and help support the Chapter in all its social and voluntary activities on a regular basis.

Thank you for submitting your nomination form!
All eligible candidates will be contacted by the Houston-NEDA Election Committee.

Filling out the nomination form and submitting a filing fee does not commit you or another person to run for the BOD election. It is simply a first step towards helping the Houston-NEDA Election Committee (EC) to identify members who meet the Board of Directors’ eligibility criteria approved by Houston-NEDA. Once the EC receives all forms, it will review them and reach out to selected nominees to discuss the next steps in the election process and collect any additional information, if needed. After selecting eligible candidates, the Election Committee will prepare a slate of qualified candidates to stand for election this year and provide ballots to all eligible voters.
