Hello,
I am a board member working on starting up a Seattle chapter of Minds Matter (www.mindsmatter.org). This non-profit organization connects accomplished high school students from low income families with mentors with the goal of gaining entrance into college. My team is looking to add board members. A board position can be tailored to an individual. How do I get the word out to Seattle-area Seniorcorps volunteers to see if anyone is interested in joining the board?
Thanks,
Kristin Medley
I am a semi retired physician in NE Tacoma with an MBA. I have had previous non-profit board experience in the past.
I would be interested in further information on this position

I have a friend in her 60′s who lives alone. She has had numerous car repairs that seem way to high and way to many from the same Mazda repair shop. She still works but the money she’s spent in the last 2 years has been unbelievable. We think there may be some fraud involved. What can she do?
