Volunteer: Board of Directors

Winter Growth is a Medical Adult Day Program and Assisted Living facility that has been proudly serving the Olney and Columbia communities for over 45 years. Its mission is to foster a supportive and vibrant community where seniors and adults with disabilities can continue to learn, grow, and live with purpose and joy.

We are currently seeking new members to join our Board of Directors. Above all, we’re looking for individuals who believe in our mission and are passionate about making a difference. We are especially in need of expertise in the following areas:

Finance (ability to review and understand budgets and financial projections) 

Business development

Marketing

Real estateHealth care

Insurance and/or law

The Board plays an advisory role, offering oversight of the organization’s finances, leadership, and mission alignment. It meets six times per year, and each board member serves on at least one committee: Executive, Finance, or Board Development. Our board is a collaborative, committed, and collegial group—and we’d love to add new voices to the table.

If you're interested in learning more, we invite you to begin with an informal conversation with a current board member—perhaps over lunch—followed by a tour of one of our facilities. From there, we can explore the possibility of board membership together.
