The Community Foundation of NCW in partnership with the Icicle Fund is now taking reservations for the annual Board Celebration Dinners that honors and recognizes nonprofit board volunteer service.

For current board members of nonprofits in Chelan, Douglas, and Okanogan Counties, the Board Celebration Dinners provide a complimentary dinner at either Sun Mountain Lodge in Winthrop or Sleeping Lady Resort in Leavenworth along with a short program to recognize the important role of board volunteers and inspire continued service to community.

“Volunteer board service is a vital component of a nonprofit, and we want board members to know we appreciate their dedication to improving their community through the nonprofits they are passionate about” said Beth Stipe, executive director. “The Board Celebration Dinners honors their service to community, and it’s a fun, inspiring night that reminds us all how important our nonprofit sector is to a great quality of life.”

The evening includes a presentation by special guest, Peter Drury, Vice President for Mission Advancement of the Make-A-Wish (Alaska & Washington). He also serves as Adjunct Professor in Seattle University’s Master of Nonprofit Leadership Program. Peter has extensive experience working with charities, nonprofits, and community foundations. He will inspire the evening with the impact of storytelling to engage our communities in supporting charitable causes.

GRANT RECIPIENT

Due to being rural, remote, and geographically isolated, we must be prepared to do more than respond to emergencies. We have become a healthcare partner who fills gaps in service. The grant allowed our board the time and ability to work with a Strategic Planner to modify our plan to address those gaps.

The grant provided funds to hire a Housing Justice and Outreach Coordinator to visit rural and underserved areas. Rosie’s bilingual and bicultural skills and experience have increased equity of service. Rosie is building partnerships with local organizations through events such as the Columbia Valley Community Health’s Back to School Drive, as well as posting yard signs.

My father was a migrant agricultural worker who eventually started his own cherry and apple orchard. He told me if I wanted to live a better life, I had to get an education. I plan on starting a career with the Chelan PUD with a passion for renewable energy and in turn give back to my parents and community for supporting my dreams.
