Recruiting New Leadsership:
Your local Northeast Ohio PKD Chapter is currently seeking a volunteer Chapter Coordinator. This position is a vital leadership role that represents the PKD Foundation in the local community and acts as a liaison between the Foundation and local constituents. This volunteer position supports our mission of education, fundraising and support. As a local Chapter Coordinator, you will be one of the first to hear about mission critical updates when you join a network of over 60 Coordinators across the nation.

If you can serve a two year term and have an hour a week to donate your time and talents to PKD patients in your area, we would welcome the opportunity to speak with you further. Please reply to me here at cindyl@pkdcure.org for further information and again we hope to secure our next great volunteer very soon! Thank you!
