Call for Applications to join REACH Board of Directors
Join Our Board of Directors!
This is an excellent opportunity for individuals who are passionate about food security and keen to be involved in the governance of an important non-profit organization in our community.
REACH is an incorporated, charitable organization with the mission of supporting independence through accessible, affordable, and nutritious food options and programs in our community. We do this through several programs including The Good Food Box, the Family Basket, Frozen Meals, Mobile Stores, Cooking Classes and grants to child nutrition programs. More information about all of our programs is available on our website.
REACH is looking for motivated and engaged community members who are interested in serving on our Board of Directors.
The Board sets our direction, takes responsibility for financial decisions and performance, and is accountable for achieving organizational objectives. Directors spend approximately 2-3 hours each month from September to June preparing for and participating in Board meetings. Committee work may also be needed throughout the year. Directors are elected to a one-year term, which is renewable.
REACH is specifically seeking individuals with expertise in communications, finance and fundraising. We also strive to ensure our Board of Directors reflects the diversity of our community and are seeking applications from Indigenous peoples and newcomers to Canada.
Candidates for the Board should be passionate about food security and related issues in our community, have a track record of success in the community, and the ability to contribute to the success of REACH.
Express your interest by sending an email (including your resume) by Sunday, May 17, 2025, to our Executive Director, Matt Leisle at Matt@reachinregina.ca You may also contact him by phone at 306-347-3224.
Expressions of interest will be reviewed, leading candidates will be contacted for more information, and then a slate of candidates will be presented to the members at the Annual General Meeting in June for election.
