Boxlight Corporation (NASDAQ: BOXL), a leading provider of
interactive technology solutions for the global education market,
is pleased to announce the appointment of Jim Clark to its board of
directors.
Mr. Clark has served as the president and CEO of the Boys &
Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) since January 2012. He leads a
network of 4,600 Boys & Girls Clubs that serves nearly 4.7
million young people annually in all 50 states and U.S. Territories
– in large cities and small towns, in public housing and on Native
lands – and on U.S. military installations across the globe. More
than 50,000 professional staff members operate the Clubs, supported
by some 285,000 board and program volunteers.
Mr. Clark has guided the organization through the launch of an
exciting new strategic direction, the Great Futures Impact Plan.
Under his leadership, BGCA Clubs are increasing the impact on the
young people they serve by focusing on three priority outcome areas
– academic success, good character and citizenship, and healthy
lifestyles.
To ensure BGCA provides the best possible service to Clubs, Mr.
Clark has spearheaded a major restructuring of the national
organization. He has introduced innovative programming that
supports the three outcome areas in ways that are fun and engaging,
such as state-of-the-art STEM initiatives and Brain Gain, a program
to combat summer learning loss.
“On behalf of Boxlight and the board of directors, I am pleased
to welcome Jim to the board,” stated Boxlight Chairman and CEO Mark
Elliott. “Jim has a tremendous track record of success in advancing
the development of young people and a deep understanding of the
educational needs of today’s youth.”
“I am honored to join the board of directors of Boxlight and
work alongside a group of professionals that share my passion to
improve the educational experience of young people,” said Mr.
Clark. “Along with the other members of the board, I am committed
to continuing the rewarding work of promoting Boxlight’s technology
solutions to the education market worldwide.”
