Fundraising - Elizabeth
I have been a member since May 2014 when the group was a chapter of the National organization, Mothers and More. I was lucky to be on the board as Secretary and experience the transition into our own non profit organization Moms and More Oswego! In the past I've held positions in fundraising and marketing and have also participated in some capacity on the resale and opening house committees through the years.
I have 2 children, Madeline is 17 years old and will be a senior at Oswego East this Fall. Cooper is 13 years old and will be an 8th grader at Plank Junior High this Fall.
When I first joined the group, I was a stay at home parent and have since gone back to work full time working in social services. I am currently an Intact Caseworker in Kane/Kendall counties.
My favorite events have always been those geared towards the "Mom" activities like book club, dinner club, bunco/bingo, secret sister, etc.
I currently reside in Aurora with my kids and 2 kitties Cadie & Reese.
