Newmarket, August 29, 2022 — Lake Simcoe Conservation Foundation is currently seeking applications for volunteer membership on its Board of Directors. Founded in 1973, Lake Simcoe Conservation Foundation is a leading registered environmental charity supporting projects that protect our forests and wetland habitats and improve soil and water health. LSCF also helps ensure children are inspired by and appreciate nature through on-going support of Outdoor Education.
Lake Simcoe Conservation Foundation is seeking people who care deeply about the natural world and are willing to commit their time, effort, and skills to our Board of Directors to ensure we are successful at our mission to raise funds for priority environmental initiatives of Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority.
Board members should be passionate about protecting and restoring our local environment, and able to assist in achieving the Foundation’s fundraising goals to implement conservation projects. Board members oversee the strategic plan, finances, and policies and procedures of the Foundation, and ultimately ensure that the resources entrusted to the Foundation further the goals of the LSRCA.
Board members are expected to attend bi-monthly Board meetings and will participate in Foundation events and activities.
It is hoped that candidates will bring a range of skills and experience to the Board including not-for-profit governance, strategic planning and visioning, fundraising, community contacts and more.
If you want to make a difference in our local watershed and have personal and professional experiences that could help our organization, please apply.
