I*4564319 Entity Type: Entity Charitable Name of OBA: BAYCAT Address: San Francisco, California, 94107 Investment Related: No Position, Title, Association: Board Member Employee Start Date: 06/30/2026 Number of Hours: 40, Yearly Number of Hours during trading: 0, Yearly Duties: BAYCAT is an organization that helps underprivileged kids get into careers in entertainment and media. It also serves as an afterschool place for kids to go to jumpstart careers in general. 40 hours per year, divided over quarterly board meetings and once a month committee meetings. Most of these are happening after work hours. On the board I will be serving more of a governance role, helping the directors of BAYCAT make informed decisions while not actively making the decisions. On the two committees that I am thinking about, the finance committee I would have eyes on the books and help BAYCAT make informed financial decisions. Whether that be payroll or event costs etc. On the programming committee I would offer ideas to what events BAYCAT should run for that given year and how the execution of the events should go. Some of the events could include Better Money habits brown bag, Resume Reviews, Mock interviews. Additionally I would have a hand in planning events that are specific to entertainment career growth.
