About interVivos

We’re a group of Edmonton volunteers who are here to cultivate leadership and make an impact in our community. Our engagement events and mentorship programs have brought people together from all backgrounds since 2006.

About the board member role

Volunteer board members complete a variety of administrative tasks to keep a small non-profit, with no staff, going. Volunteer board members attend virtual bi-monthly board meetings, virtual bi-weekly working sessions, interVivos in-person special events, as well as other ad-hoc in-person activities, which mostly fall on evenings or weekends. Also, they are interVivos ambassadors who strongly believe in our vision of a generation of inspired and informed leaders.

A former board member had the following to say of her experience on the board: “I learned valuable lessons during my time with the board. My understanding of board governance and board accountability developed substantially. I also had the opportunity to meet an incredible number of people, and my network grew. I attribute this to the array of topics and professional paths that intersect at this organization. I was given many chances to try so many new roles and responsibilities. I am so grateful to interVivos and its board members for new friendships, many laughs and diverse experiences.”

Board term

Volunteer board members are expected to complete a two-year term after successfully completing a 3-month trial period. This is an unpaid volunteer position. There is also the opportunity to be elected to a vacant leadership role after successfully completing the 3-month trial, e.g., Director of Digital Engagement, Director of Programs and Events.

Application deadline: Apply here by Wednesday, March 15, 2023, at 11:30 PM.
