Charlotte Ma

Hi everyone, I’m Charlotte, and I’m standing to be your next Treasurer.

As an active committee member this year, I’ve seen how important strong financial planning is, particularly in sustaining and growing Headline’s operations. In high school, I managed finances for several social impact societies and secured multiple grants. I plan to bring that same proactive approach here: identifying funding opportunities, applying for grants, and building relationships with sponsors, foundations, and corporate partners to diversify our income.

If elected, I’ll focus on strengthening our funding base by developing sponsor and affiliate relationships, particularly with impact-focused firms aligned with our mission. I’ll also ensure our funds directly enhance the member experience, such as a guest speaker series, practical skills workshops, cross-society collaborations, and expanding our Hackathon.

With experience managing budgets and securing grants, I’ll prioritise clear communication about where our funds go and how they benefit you. I’m organised, proactive, and committed to making sure our finances create better opportunities for everyone. I’d really value your vote.
