Calling all change-makers

Are you thinking about ways you could create positive change in the world? We are seeking a professional to join our volunteer board of directors.

We’re looking for someone who is energetic and passionate about helping charities and who has experience with starting and/or running a charity in its early development stages – someone who has gained experience “by doing” and now would like to give back to help other emerging change-makers in the charity space to realize their goals and vision.

Board members’ commit to supporting and mentoring our recipient organizations (this is based on fit and availability). Some of the knowledge and fields of experience that are most valuable to our recipients include management, operations, human resources, marketing, fundraising, and communications.

What’s involved:

  • All board meetings are held virtually/remotely. Meetings and other administrative tasks are kept to a minimum.
  • Volunteer board members need to hold Canadian citizenship.
  • No minimum tenure, though we’d love someone to stay involved long-term (we’re a passionate group – some of our board members have been with the Foundation since its inception!).

Here’s what board member Gordon Johnson has to say about contributing to the Foundation:

“While I have always been someone who contributed to the larger tourism industry, my heart is well-served through the various Project Change initiatives, and I wish I had done this kind of volunteer work earlier in my career.”
