Treasurer of the Board of Christian Community Service Projects. Serving on these Boards is very rewarding.

Treasurer: Virginia Martin (LDS Church Member)

I have served as a member of the Board of Directors of the Alamosa Senior Center since 2015.

Through this service, I have met so many wonderful people, both officers and members of the Board of Directors, and members of the Senior Citizens. I have been unable to be as active as I

would like over the past couple of years due to health issues but these issues are now being addressed and resolved. I believe I will soon be able to spend more time and energy helping

the Senior Citizens with their fund-raising activities and activities. I am the mother of three (1 deceased), grandmother of seven, and great-grandmother of 8. This is my greatest blessing and one of my greatest joys. I spend as much time as possible with

family, though most of them now live in Arizona and Nevada. I plan to spend more time at the Senior Center in the next few months and continue on for as long as my mind and body will allow.
