Thanks to Brentwood Home Page and its sister publications in Franklin, Nolensville and Spring Hill, for helping us get the word out about YLC’s seventh annual partnership with Williamson, Inc. to train young professionals between the ages of 25-40, who live, work or do business in Williamson County, in 11 weekly sessions, beginning September 12. Each session, meeting on consecutive Thursdays through November 21, will meet from 8:00-10:30 a.m. at Williamson Inc.’s office in Cool Springs, and will cover board member responsibilities, strategic planning, nonprofit financials, legal responsibilities, conflict resolution, fundraising, and effective meetings, all of which are crucial skills needed for today’s nonprofit leadership roles. The graduates of the program will then serve a one-year internship on a local nonprofit board to put their newfound skills into action. The application deadline has been extended to July 20. Apply online at https://lnkd.in/eyswh_8 The participation fee is $550.

Although liver disease is among the ten major causes of death in the United States, there was no national voluntary health agency devoted exclusively to combating liver diseases until 1976, when the American Liver Foundation was formed. The Mid-South Division was founded in the late 1990’s in Memphis and eventually moved to Nashville to serve the entire state, in addition to Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana to promote education, advocacy, support services and research for prevention, treatment and cure of liver disease. Read more about the organization here. The Mid-South Division is looking for a board member with marketing skills. If interested, contact executive director Teresa Davidson at tdavidson@liverfoundation.org or (615) 970-1690.

Dietz Osborne (Class 58) has been named President/CEO of Miriam’s Promise, after Debbie Robinson, the former Executive Director, retired on June 30.

Dietz’s initial volunteer experience was at the organization’s annual golf fundraiser which led to ten years of volunteer service for the organization. He was hired eight years ago and has worked in progressive roles including development and administration. In that time he was responsible for raising over $3.5 million dollars to support the services offered by Miriam’s Promise. Most recently he earned his Master of Science in Management and Leadership from Western Governor’s University. Congratulations to Dietz! We wish him all the best in this new role.
