The Alzheimer Society of Manitoba is on the lookout for 2 new board members to help guide the organization’s work to support families living with dementia throughout the province.
The Society's CEO Wendy Schettler had this to say about what the board members will do.
Board members of the Alzheimer Society set the vision, they're setting the forward thinking vision for the society. They really are also responsible to make sure the Alzheimer Society is operating in a responsible, fiduciary kind of legal way.
Wendy also spoke about who is eligible to apply for the board positions.
The application is open to all Manitobans and residents who apply should have a connection to the cause and have experience being on a board previously. The board is a policy governance board, not an operational board so they set the policy directions to set the work of the Society for the future.
The deadline for applications is April 22nd and you can find out all the information about the board, the roles with the board as well as how to apply here.
