Two acting co-directors were named in November to run the Angeles Chapter. Both have served as conservation coordinators who help volunteers with Chapter-wide campaigns. Jennifer Robinson and George Watland are jointly responsible for Chapter-wide fundraising initiatives including Major Gifts, Cars4Causes, the Hike Donation Program, the 1000 at $100 campaign, the March and August Membership Appeals, the Tribute Card Program and partnerships with outside organizations and companies such as Amoeba Records and Warner Bros.
The two also handle all bequest, annuity and planned giving inquiries. Until a permanent Chapter Director is named, they will collaborate to manage Chapter staff, support our members and volunteer leaders, and oversee operations including fiduciary oversight and budget maintenance, programs and projects.
Jennifer and George work in partnership with the Chapter Executive Committee Chair to move Chapter policies and programs forward.

Ron Silverman, who had served as Senior Chapter Director for seven years, left the Angeles Chapter to take a position as vice president of development for the Trevor Project in West Hollywood.
