Alternate Board Member

People’s Memorial Association (PMA) and its member-owned cooperative funeral home are looking for an alternate board member. One Board of Directors oversees these two entities.  There are 9 members-at-large (3 year terms) and two alternate members (1 year terms).

People’s Memorial Association is a registered 501c3 nonprofit that provides funeral education and advocacy in Washington State. It is a memorial society that has had over 215,000 members since 1939 and currently serves about 70,000 living members and their families. The members own the country’s only cooperative funeral home called The Co-op Funeral Home, which was established in 2007. This full service funeral home is based in Seattle and serves King County. Please visit www.peoplesmemorial.org and www.funerals.coop for more information about these organizations.

Our organizations are ripe for strategic changes that will ensure their financial sustainability. No funeral industry knowledge or experience is necessary.

The Board of Directors meet remotely via Zoom every other month. This is a one-year commitment that includes attending board meetings and participating in one committee (preferably either the Finance or Contracts Committee).

Please submit any inquiries to Amanda Stock, Executive Director of Peoples Memorial at amanda@peoplesmemorial.org.
