Welcome, Sophie and Kate!
The Board of Directors (minus a few not pictured!) at their annual retreat in the fall.
Sophie was a camper from 2009 to 2011 and on staff from 2012 to 2019 (Program Director 2016 to 2018, Senior Director's Assistant 2019). Since graduating from Haverford College in 2019 with a degree in Political Science and a concentration in Peace, Justice, and Human Rights, Sophie is a second-year law student at The University of Texas School of Law.
“In joining the board I hope to contribute to and give back to the Onas community. As the Program Director at Camp for 3 years, I have a strong sense of how Camp's summer program runs and I hope that joining the board allows me to learn more about the year-round operations and use my specific camp knowledge and operational background to help camp run even better! I hope to go into nonprofit work in the education space long term, so joining the board was a no-brainer for me. I'm so excited to get to know everybody and work together to make Onas the best it can be!” - Sophie
Kate was a camper from 2007 to 2011 and on staff from 2013 to 2016. Kate graduated from New York University with a double major in Drama and Political Science and is currently based in New York City working as one of the stage managers on the Broadway musical, Kimberly Akimbo.
“Camp is such a special place to me and contributed so much to who I am as a person that when the opportunity to join the board came up, I jumped at it. I am excited to help to guide Onas through this season of change and to give back even a small piece of what Camp has given me.” - Kate
