Wanted - Geauga Hunger Task Force Volunteer Board Member
The Geauga Hunger Task Force (GHTF) is a non-profit organization
focused on our mission to ensure that “no resident of Geauga
County goes hungry". The GHTF was created to meet emergency hunger
needs in 1977. This mission has expanded to include five pantries,
the efforts of Nextstep (a stabilization program providing support
for young adults), United Way (home delivered meals to home bound
people under 60 and disabled), Chagrin Park community (a site that
also feeds seniors from that community meals) and starting in 2021,
the Veterans pantry in Munson.
Our board members come from many walks of life. We look to their
life experiences in serving others to help guide our decisions. The
main duty of the Board is to secure and protect funds to meet our
mission. We request that our members must either live or work in
Geauga County to better understand the needs of this community. We
meet every other month to discuss and make decisions concerning the
needs of the sites we support. We have grown both in size and
skills in recent years. Currently we seek new members with skills
in business, volunteer coordination, grant writing or IT, but a
willing heart and the desire to serve others are the most sought
skills.
If you would like to discuss this position, you may contact us at
info@geaugahungertaskforce.org . We will contact you to discuss
your background and interest.
