We are currently seeking volunteer board members to help us in our annual campaign to raise funds in support of local non-profits in our area.
Our board meets monthly, either in person or via Zoom. Board members are also called upon to help out with a few special events and programs throughout the year, as they can. In the past this has included fundraising barbecues, Skate with Santa events, taking a shift manning donation tables at the local senior centres or grocery stores, helping out with the Koats for Kids program, and attending our fall campaign kick-off and spring campaign wrap events.
Whether you’re someone who loves to roll up their sleeves and help out behind-the-scenes or a person who thrives on reaching out and connecting with people in our community, we have a role for you on our board!
We’re hoping to people our board with a diverse group of enthusiastic volunteers, hailing from across the region we serve. Fundraising expertise, policy development skills, business connections, and public relations experience would all be pluses for a potential new board member, but an eagerness to be actively involved and a commitment to helping us grow our agency over the next few years are really the most important things we’re looking for.
If you’d like to learn more, email us at [email protected].
