Region 1 Virtual Sponsorship Matching Program

The Virtual region is seeking a new Chair for their Sponsorship Matching Program by September 2021.
This program has been an amazing service and attracts fellows from all over the globe that are seeking sponsors or wish to be one. Our current administrator of this task, Carrie A., would like to rotate out of this position by September. The administration is simple and takes approximately 3-4 hours per week that can be divided between 2 or 3 people. It is all done through a gmail account and two google docs. It is a paperless program.
The rewards are great: Being able to match sponsors and sponsees from Region 1, most U.S. states, Canada and sometimes other countries.

Would you please share this info with your meeting reps. Or perhaps you can think of someone yourself that may be a good fit for this position?
Please contact  mal@oaregion1.org or carrieaa@gmail.comif you would like to know more about this service opportunity and you'd never have to leave your house!
