Annual Meeting Highlights
(From the June 2004 Newsletter)
On a lovely May evening SVP'ers, investee representatives, and guests met at the EcoTrust Building in Portland's Pearl District to look back at our accomplishments so far, and also to look ahead to new challenges and opportunities, at the SVPP Annual Meeting.
Partners thanked outgoing Board members Jim Johnson and Nick Stanley for their dedicated service, and welcomed new Board members George Alexander, Jean Hart and Dave Smith. The Partners also warmly thanked departing Interim Executive Director Miriam Feuerle. Team Co-Leader Leslie Trim presented the Plan developed by the Strategic Design Team over the past six months. The Plan beautifully lays out SVPP's philosophy and goals and offers ideas for continuing evolution and improvement in service both to our Partners and to our community; it will be the subject of an SVPP Town Hall on June 9th (please see the notice on the Calendar, top right).
Oregon Public Broadcasting President Maynard Orme gave the Annual Meeting keynote address. He described a national initiative called Life Options that he and Jay Bloom, President of Morrison Child and Family Services, seek to integrate into Portland area nonprofits. Its purpose is to tap the potential of the generation now aged 45 to 75 as volunteers and as "returnee" workers. This creative program is being developed locally with the help of SVP Partner Jean Hart.
