Join Our Board and Help Shape the Future of Adoption in Manitoba!

Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of children, families, and communities? Adoption Options Manitoba is looking for dedicated and dynamic volunteer leaders to join our Board of Directors!

 

As a licensed, not-for-profit agency, we are committed to facilitating domestic and international adoptions, and providing critical support through education, counseling, and resources for birth parents, adoptive families, adoptees, professionals, and the public.

 

Why Join Our Board?

As a board member, you’ll play a key role in guiding the governance of our organization. This includes attending monthly board meetings, actively contributing to one of our board committees, and helping drive our mission forward.

 

Following a recent review of our current board’s skills and connections, we are especially seeking individuals with expertise in:

 

  • Finance and Accounting
  • Human Resources
  • Fundraising and Donor Relations

If you have experience in these areas and a passion for building brighter futures through adoption, we’d love to hear from you!

 

How to Apply

The Nominating Committee is accepting applications until February 28, 2025. For further details and to access the application, see the links below:
