The Flint River Watershed Coalition (FRWC) welcomes six additional board members from their recently dissolved Corridor Alliance Chapter.
“I am excited about the new energy and perspectives and how we work together with dedicated board members: those new to the role, as well as those who are continuing to serve,” reflected Doug Schultz, FRWC Board of Directors Chair.
The Corridor Alliance Chapter of FRWC, which was founded in 2007 and became a chapter of FRWC in 2018, focused its work exclusively within the city of Flint. The Chapter’s board voted to dissolve last month with a goal of strengthening the overall leadership and focus of its parent organization. Six former board members from the Corridor Alliance Chapter have joined FRWC’s board of directors, bringing significant Flint connections and talent to the organization's leadership team:
- Tiffany Bernethy, Commercial Loan Officer with Metro Community Development
- Michelle Kachelski, Neighborhood Project Assistant with the Neighborhood Engagement Hub
- Paula Nas, Director of the University of Michigan-Flint’s Office of Economic Development
- Tom Saxton, Flint resident, President of Mott Park Recreation Association
- Juan Zuniga, Executive Director of Flint LISC
