Glad to hear you accepted it, Ben!

I also support his nomination. Ben has helped out on several occasions and
has been proactive in advancing NCUC's work and values.

On another note, I would also like to echo Bruna's comments. @hfaiedh ines
<hfaiedh.ines2 at gmail.com>, you have always been an example of community
engagement and dedication to regional representation in NCUC. It has been a
pleasure sharing and learning from you in these two mandates. I can only
wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours!

All the best,
