    Description

    Part-time Board Secretary for San Diego Countywide food recovery nonprofit

    Are you a detailed person who would like to help feed hungry people in San Diego County?

    The Senior Gleaners of San Diego County nonprofit needs an individual to become the secretary for its board of directors. No experience necessary, just an ability to listen, take notes and distribute them once a quarter.

    Join an amazing charitable organization that in 2025 rescued over 419,000 pounds of food that would otherwise have gone to waste. We helped feed hungry people by providing over 1.1 MILLION serving of fresh-off-the-trees fruit across San Diego County.

    The board secretary performs vital tasks for the functioning of the board of directors. Primarily the secretary takes and distributes minutes at the quarterly 90-minute board meetings. Responsibilities also include checking the P.O. Box located in the Mission Gorge area a couple of times a month, and disseminating correspondence and donation checks.

    Like all board members, the secretary assists in setting policies and strategic direction, helps with fundraising and in implementing the mission of our 32-year-old nonprofit organization. A minimum of a two-year term is required. Board members do not need to be over 55 but should reside in San Diego County.
