RPCV/W Blog Deadline extended: RPCV/W 2023 Board elections are open!

Calling all nominees! Do you want to apply your talents to the growth of a nonprofit organization? Do you want to be part of building a community that connects Returned Peace Corps Volunteers? Do you want to be challenged, learn a ton of stuff, have a lot of fun, and make a significant impact? Returned Peace Corps Volunteers of Washington D.C. (RPCV/W), a nonprofit organization, is looking for stellar leaders to take on volunteer roles on committees and its board of directors. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants not just a volunteer activity, but a long-term opportunity to empower the RPCV community, support returning volunteers, and build a network with volunteers from the last six decades. Nominations are open for the below vacant positions on a rolling basis. Please email Jenna Smith president@rpcvw.org to submit a nomination.  You should be a go-getter, self-starter, big-picture-strategist with an eye for detail and a willingness to support the entire board of directors and work collaboratively with other committee members. You must be willing to produce prompt and effective results within your board role. You will have the opportunity to play a key role in expanding the organization and should have a minimum of 10-15 hours a month with a mandatory monthly meeting the second Tuesday evening of every month to dedicate to your position on the board of directors. We look forward to having you join our team! The RPCV/W board has 14 voting board members. Active RPCV/W members may apply for a board position (please make sure your membership is up to date here), and must be local to DC to support in-person meetings and events. Terms are for two years.
