Kaya's Seeking a Volunteer to Assist the Board of Directors


Kaya’s Board of Directors is comprised of generous, thoughtful and committed leaders throughout the United States.  Responsible for the overall management of the organization, they meet as a large group approximately every other month through conference call.

We are currently seeking a volunteer to assist with those Board meetings.  The main responsibility will include producing minutes of bi-monthly Board meetings.  This will include attending Board meetings through conference call, taking notes, and creating a draft version of minutes within a reasonable timeframe.  This is a significant, and hopefully, rewarding position.  It helps to maintain the structure of the organization.  There may be further opportunities beyond this in time.

The ideal volunteer has strong writing skills and a pleasant personality.  He or she is dependable and prompt.  He or she is able to work with little supervision while maintaining a high level of confidentiality.  The volunteer must be able to meet deadlines in a timely manner.  Great communication skills, proficiency in English and access to the Internet and a phone line are essential to the position.

Additionally, the ideal volunteer will be available for a minimum of 1 year with an average time commitment of 5 hours every other month.

For more information or to apply, please contact Sarah Porter, Kaya’s Executive Director, at sporter@kayachildren.org or 617-207-5438.
