Locally, our Volunteer Board is heading into an exciting time. As we continue to grow and our responsibilities expand, we’ve reached a point where it is no longer sustainable to rely solely on volunteer leadership. To ensure we can continue to fulfill our mission effectively and with focus, after twenty-two years of operating strictly by volunteers, we have now hired a dedicated individual to handle key aspects of the Foundation’s day-to-day operations. Drumroll, please, and a great big warm welcome to our new Executive Director, Sarah Taylor. Another significant change to the face of our Foundation is the election of Monica Slobodzian as Chair.
