VEPC Seeks New Board Members

Are you someone with epilepsy or Parkinson’s? Are you a friend or family member of someone with epilepsy or Parkinson’s? Do you have skills that could contribute to a nonprofit Board?

The Victoria Epilepsy and Parkinson’s Centre (VEPC) is a vibrant and welcoming non-profit society whose purpose is to strengthen clients’, families’ and communities’ ability to manage the physical, psychological and social effects of Parkinson’s and epilepsy. VEPC is managed by a volunteer Board of Directors made up of people living with epilepsy or Parkinson’s and professionals with an interest in the two disorders. Board members are appointed for an initial one-year term followed by two-year terms. Each Board member is expected to serve on at least one Board committee. The Board of Directors provides overall direction for the organization and is responsible for ensuring VEPC’s programmatic and fiscal health and accountability.

VEPC is currently seeking new Board members. We are seeking people with strong ties to the local community and an interest in epilepsy and/or Parkinson’s. Board members are typically selected by the current Board of Directors and approved by the General Membership at VEPC’s Annual General Meeting.
If you have knowledge and experience that will assist VEPC as it grows to meet the needs of growing populations of individuals with epilepsy and Parkinson’s in the Victoria Capital Regional District, we encourage you to apply to join VEPC’s Board of Directors by contacting us to request an application.

You can reach VEPC at (250) 475-6677, help@vepc.bc.ca, or visit our website at www.vepc.bc.ca

Holding a Fundraiser

So you’re planning an event? And you want to help ensure that your community supports individuals with epilepsy or Parkinson’s and their families? Then look no further, because the Victoria Epilepsy and Parkinson’s Centre (VEPC) is the charity your event is looking for! By choosing VEPC you will make your special occasion more meaningful by making it a fundraiser!

It’s really quite simple to do. A third party event is any sort of fundraising campaign planned and put on by another group outside of VEPC, and where all proceeds collected are donated to VEPC. These donations help to continue the important work that VEPC does. So, the next time you’re planning an event, think Victoria Epilepsy and Parkinson’s Centre!
