Organisational Structure

Our organisational structure is illustrated in the simplified chart below. It comprises the Board of Trustees and the Executive Arm, the responsibilities of which are briefly described in the ensuing sections.

Board of Trustees

Our activities are governed by a Board of Trustees (BOT), which sets the operating strategy and provides direction for the Trust. The BOT meets on a 2-monthly basis, typically in joint sessions with the Executive and ordinary members of the Trust, to review progress against set objectives and discuss operational priorities.

Working Committees

Day-to-day operation and implementation of MYET activities is delivered by working committees formed by the BOT. The working committees may comprise BOT members, members of the Executive, ordinary members of MYET and volunteers, and work under the leadership of a Chief Executive appointed the BOT. The key standing committees are:

1. Community liaison: engaged in grassroot mobilisation through close collaboration with community leaders and the clergy in rural Masihiyawa communities.
2. Candidate screening: collation and screening of candidates for the scholarship, and making recommendations to the BOT for scholarship awards
3. Mentorship: tasked with pairing beneficiaries or alumni of the MYET scholarship award with suitably experienced mentors to help with their personal or professional development

The strategic planning and delivery of MYET activities is led by:

• Prof. U. Kiro (Chief Executive)
• Dr. S. Bello
• Rev. S. Gummi
• Mal. Y. Mamman Gummi (Beneficiaries Coordinator)

How We Are Funded

Activities of MYET are funded by personal contributions from the BOT, Executive and ordinary members. We are continually seeking and engaging with like-minded individuals and organisations - who share our vision and ethos - to secure additional and sustainable funding to expand MYET operations to meet the ever-growing demand.
