Any further information about this vacancy:

Our organisation aims to support young children and families with limited access to grandparents, by matching them with a local retired volunteer. The volunteer Elder receives training and support to visit the family once a week for play and connection, over a period of 10 weeks. Our main goal is to support child development through nurturing connections with local Elders. Our hope is that many of the connections established through the program, will continue beyond the program. 

We are currently establishing as a non profit, and looking for a voluntary Board member / Director to join us. Ideally, you are a semi-retired or retired person with experience in accounting, finance, legal or fundraising, and you have a heart for children, supporting young families, community cohesion, and intergenerational connections.
