Iain Crawford

I have served as RSVP Treasurer since 2013, my first term beginning as the Society was about to receive Eileen’s Curran bequest. In the past six years, I have been deeply involved in the transformation in RSVP’s activities made possible by the Curran gift, working with successive Presidents and the Board towards the transition into a Private Foundation that is now (almost) complete. In accepting the nomination to serve for a new three-year term, I hope to complete that transition, work with the Finance Committee to implement an annual budget planning process, and help ensure our professional services support fully meets the Society’s needs. Finally, believing that succession planning is an essential part of leadership, I hope we can identify the next holder of this position and that I can work with him/her to ensure a smooth and successful transition for a role that has grown enormously in scope and complexity since I first came into it.
