An Opportunity to help a small NSW Rural Community
We are seeking to appoint several Directors to our Board. We are a small Charity registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC), based in rural NSW, and we were incorporated in 2020 as a Company Limited by Guarantee. Our object is to pursue a wide range of charitable purposes that will enhance and improve the village of Greenethorpe and the surrounding area, and provide assistance and support to the people living in that community. Our main activity is the operation of a small Community Centre in the village, which sells pre-loved goods, and includes a Library facility. Details about us, including our Constitution, Annual Reports, and Annual Financial Statements can be found on the ACNC website.
The Board of Directors meets each quarter to review and discuss a wide range of matters, including a report on Charity Operations, Management and Administration by the Managing Director, Quarterly Financial Statements, and a range of other matters. Each Director should be able to visit Greenethorpe and our Community Centre at least once each year. We do not pay Directors Fees, however relevant expenses incurred by a Director will be reimbursed, and a range of travel and other allowances are provided. Accommodation is available at Peppertree Cottage in Greenethorpe – in late 2023 the Company purchased another property in the village, and intends moving our Community Centre from Peppertree Cottage to the new property in mid-2025.
We are seeking people with a desire to help a small rural community that does not have easy access to many of the facilities available to those in urban areas. There are no education or experience requirements, and the Chairperson will provide training and support as required. We are open to people with diverse backgrounds, and who have an understanding or willingness to understand the difficulties of living in this type of community. Please contact the Managing Director for a copy of the Position Description, or if you have any questions about this role.
