Bring your passion for helping seniors for our new role, Board Member Fundraising & Outreach!
At Northwest Neighbors Network (NNN), our mighty team of over 150 volunteers supports a virtual village that helps our senior neighbors in north King County and south Snohomish County age well in their homes, and provides opportunities to remain socially active and connected in their community.

NNN is looking to grow its team of board members with community members who have a strong desire and passion to support our local seniors by bringing their diverse skill sets to serve our community.

Mission Statement
Northwest Neighbors Network helps seniors age well in their own homes by providing volunteer services and events
Description
The local communities of Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace, Lynnwood and Brier are among the multitude that are forming or have formed Aging-In-Place Villages worldwide. Northwest Neighbors Network is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation created using the model already in place in Northeast Seattle (N.E.S.T), Greenwood (PNA Village) and Capitol Hill (Wider Horizons) to help older adults (60+) remain in their homes and communities as they age. Village members pay dues, so the model becomes largely self-supporting once fully established. We are especially in need of volunteers in the key areas of member recruitment and retention, fundraising, forming strategic partnerships with businesses, and technical support. We are also looking for Board members with experience in the non-profit sector and providing services to seniors. To support or growing membership base, we're seeking enthusiastic volunteers for everything from running errands to handyman tasks to organizing social events, you name it!
