MT. PLEASANT — All God’s Creatures has hired an executive director in anticipation of opening the animal shelter’s doors.
All God’s Creatures (AGC), a non-profit organization looking to connect the hands and paws of Henry County to build a happier, healthier community, hit an important and exciting milestone in their development.
After an extensive search and interview process, the Executive Board recently selected Emily Davis to fill the essential role of Executive Director.
Davis will join the team in early May and will work alongside the Board in coming months to solidify plans for both the animal shelter facility and the community programming components.
When the shelter opens its doors and becomes fully operational, the Executive Director will lead a group of staff and volunteers to ensure that all facets of this project run smoothly and successfully.
“Our Board has been working tirelessly to ensure that this vision comes to life in the most successful and sustainable way possible,” AGC Board Member Kate Ridinger said. “We knew that hiring a full-time, paid Director would be essential to our success and we are all so excited to add Emily to our team. Her knowledge, experience, excitement and drive are going to be invaluable assets to our organization.”
AGC encourages the community to follow along with their progress, including an upcoming, extended introduction to their Executive Director by signing up for their newsletter at www.allgodscreaturesmp.org and following their Facebook page, AllGodsCreaturesMP.
