About Us
Manuels River Community Inc. (MRCI) is a registered charitable organization dedicated to sustainability, education, and wellness. Our Board of Directors represents the community’s interests by providing strategic direction and operational support for our programs and services.
Each year, new board members are welcomed at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), which is planned for April 2025.
Qualifications
We are seeking individuals with diverse experiences and a strong passion for volunteerism to help build a board that truly reflects our community. The board also includes administrative and planning roles requiring specialized skills in:
- Accounting
- Marketing
- Legal
- Science
- Information Technology
Board members are expected to participate in regular meetings and committee work. Additionally, Directors must be members of MRCI in good standing.
Due to our responsibility in overseeing MRCI’s finances and property, as well as the involvement of children in our operations, all applicants must provide a Certificate of Conduct with a Vulnerable Sector Check from the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC). This certificate is available at no charge to applicants—MRCI will provide a letter to waive any associated fees.

MRCI is committed to fostering equity and diversity. We encourage applications from all qualified individuals, including:
- Women
- Individuals of any sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression
- Indigenous peoples
- Visible minorities and racialized individuals
- People with disabilities
