I raised my daughters in an area of Bemidji that was not particularly affluent. More than once, we returned home to find neighborhood children playing on our own backyard play structure.
I have volunteered for Bemidji Area Take a Kid Fishing. I think it is important to introduce children in our region to opportunities they have right outside their back door.
I am on the Northern Dental Access Center board of directors, serving as Treasurer, currently in my fifth year of service. I serve on the executive, finance and administrative committees. We generally serve low-income clients from around the region at dental offices in Bemidji and Halstad.
With summer quickly nearing its end, the NMF staff came together this week for some much-needed social time.
I have worked at the Northwest Minnesota Foundation for 5 years. Over that time, I have seen and worked with the people, businesses and organizations that benefit from our work across the region.
