Treasurer

We are looking for a treasurer to join our board. The Treasurer is responsible for oversight of the financial affairs of Backpack Brigade. Partnering with the Exec Director and the President, the Treasurer ensures financial controls, information, and processes suitable to BB’s and its stakeholders’ needs are in place and functioning properly.

In Washington State, 1 in 5 kids is food insecure. Many displaced students rely solely on the free breakfasts and lunches they receive at school, so weekends and breaks leave them without a reliable source of food.   Backpack Brigade’s mission is to end weekend hunger for school-age kids.

Every Thursday during the school year, our volunteers pack bags of nutritious, easy-to-eat food and drop them at area K-12 schools, where they are distributed to students in need. Powered by volunteers and strengthened through donations and sponsors, Backpack Brigade aims to provide better food to more of Seattle’s hungry children each weekend.
