Who are we?
We have a passionate board made up of people from both New Zealand and the United States of America. Some of our board have lived or worked in Christchurch or around NZ and others have lived and worked in and around Seattle and Washington state in the US.
This year we are delighted to have a full compliment of 15 board members to support our wide range of charitable and social endeavors. If you are interested in potentially joining the SCSCA Board, please contact secretary@seattlechristchurch.org.
The Board of Directors meets in the Seattle area approximately once a month to plan the various activities of the Association. These activities include celebrating Anzac Day, and Waitangi Day, gardening at the Seattle Arboretum where there is a special area with native NZ trees and flowers, annual summer picnics, the annual dinner at the Yacht Club, ties with the Burke Museum and Woodland Park Zoo, a college scholarship to fund a student to study in New Zealand, and more.
