If you love nature and are interested in conserving the province’s natural beauty, you might want to get involved with Nature Saskatchewan.
Nature Saskatchewan is a non-profit charitable organization that promotes an appreciation and understanding of nature through conservation, education, and research. The organization is currently accepting nominations for board members.
Candidates should have a passion for nature and the right balance of knowledge, skills, and experiences that will benefit the organization.
Ideally, candidates will have previous experience in the not-for-profit sector. Applicants should have experience or skill in at least one of the following areas:

Time commitment varies, but it is anticipated that you will spend at least five hours per month doing this work. This includes participation on at least one board committee. The list of committees includes: awards, conservation, finance, fund development, lands, nominations, personnel, policy review, resolutions, scholarship, and strategic planning.
Board members are elected at the annual general meeting held each year in June and serve two-year terms.
