Seeking Nominations for the 2013-14 MORA Board of Directors

Have you been thinking it’s time to get serious about the environment, improving the economy, and expanding your social networks?  

This is a great opportunity to apply your skills and interests to an organization that:

• Establishes sound statewide policies to advance recycling
• Engages industry, government, institutions and citizens through education and technical assistance
• Strengthens end-use markets for recovered materials
• Puts on one of the best conferences in the Midwest, highlighting national experts and local successes

This is a very exciting time to consider serving on the MORA Board of Directors as MORA continues to be the one collective voice to engage industry, government, institutions and citizens to advance recycling, strengthen end-use markets for recovered materials and provide one of the best conferences in the Midwest!

MORA has a need for people with grant writing, fundraising, public education, creative and organizational skills.  Nominees from the private sector and from geographical areas beyond the eastern and central parts of the state would increase board diversity, but anyone with a passion for recycling are encouraged to submit a nomination.  Board members will be chosen from the roster of candidates by the MORA membership at our annual conference, September 16-18, in Jefferson City.  Elected board members serve two-year terms. 

Board Responsibilities

As a MORA Board member, you are expected to attend monthly half-day meetings in mid-Missouri and participate in committee work of your choosing.  Meetings are informative and stimulating; we stick to Roberts Rules to keep moving,  but we also have fun!   We are a board, but we are never bored. This is a chance to work behind the scenes in MORA and to find out how the wizardry works. 

If you are interested or know a person who is interested please fill out the form to the right.
