Board Members Needed

To build on our initial successes over the past several years, SSS is looking to expand and strengthen our Board of Directors. We are seeking accomplished and visionary people across the region with broad-based expertise to advise us. Mid to late-career professionals from all sectors are invited to share their expertise.

This is an exciting volunteer opportunity, helping to shape the growing and changing needs of BC's seniors' services and programming. A letter outlining your relevant experience and expertise, and how you see yourself contributing to the SSS vision should be submitted by June 7th, 2013.

For more information, please contact Kara-Leigh, Executive Director, or call 604-250-6621.
