AUBURN — Christina McAnuff, executive director of the Olympia Snowe Women’s Leadership Institute, will be the guest speaker at the L-A Metro Chamber breakfast 7 a.m. Thursday, July 12.
The breakfast will be held at Hilton Garden Inn Auburn Riverwatch, 14 Great Falls Plaza.
The institute is a nonprofit organization operating a three-year evidence-based program elevating the confidence and aspirations of high school girls by helping them develop the skills needed to be leaders in their lives, families, careers, and communities.
Prior to joining the Institute, McAnuff served as director of Global High School Abroad Programs for CIEE — the Council on International Educational Exchange. Her work included developing curriculum, managing the training and hiring of staff, overseeing assessment of the program, building networks, managing outreach to participating schools, and operational oversight.
McAnuff gained experience marketing, communications and leadership training. Her range of skills and her passion for the Institute’s mission make her the ideal choice to lead the Institute through the startup and expansion of its program.
McAnuff’s volunteer work reflects that passion, having served as a volunteer, mentor and board member of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Maine, as well as several other youth-focused volunteer activities and community boards.
Welcoming her to the Institute in 2016, Snowe noted the addition of her considerable skills and experience will help shape the organization as it grows in its early years.
“Christina brings an array of skills to the institute at a critical time in our expansion. Her tremendous energy combined with her unbridled enthusiasm for our mission makes her a perfect fit as our executive director,” she said.
The cost is $20 for members and $30 for non-members; registration is available at www.LAMetroChamber.com.
