Gail

Hello. My name is Gail. I’m an avid volunteer. I’ve always been good at organization and being put in leadership positions.

Today in our community, too many people are not able to advocate for themselves because they don’t know where to go for help.

That’s why I thoroughly enjoy my work at the North Ottawa County Council on Aging plus my volunteer position on the NOCHS board of directors representing the City of Grand Haven. Helping seniors directly, and indirectly by advocating for them at the local and State level, provides satisfaction knowing I have made a positive difference in someone’s life. The hospital is concerned about providing quality health care to our local residents, and serving on the board gives me the opportunity to advocate for policies and programs that accomplish this goal.

Personally, I have been richly blessed and believe in giving back to the community that has been so supportive of me and my family. And, working among the elderly, I have observed that those who do something for others age more gracefully and happily.

Using my leadership skills to better the community,
