Merrymount Family Support and Crisis Centre is seeking new board members, for two separate boards, who will commit and contribute to our organization’s governance and Foundation oversight. Centre Board: Merrymount exists to help children and families as they navigate through and beyond crisis, to build stronger, healthier families. This board meets 7:45 to 9:00 am on the last Tuesday of each month. Foundation Board: Merrymount Foundation Inc. is run by a dedicated Board of Directors who give their time to ensure continued financial sustainability. This board meets quarterly and is in need of candidates with experience in the investments and financial sector. The expected time commitment is approximately two to four hours a month for a minimum of one year, with a recommended term of two to six years. Board members contribute to strategic planning, review financials, support the executive director, contribute to fundraising, and represent Merrymount within the community. As a Board, we strive to gain the perspectives and voices of a diverse group of individuals. We hope to hear from you! How to Apply: Please send your resume with a cover letter to the Merrymount Board Recruitment Committee indicating which board you’re interested in at board@merrymount.on.ca. Include any relevant volunteer and work experiences, and why you would like to join the Merrymount Board.
