Congratulations to Partner Heather Champine, who has been elected to President of the Board of Directors for Kids ‘n Kinship, a 501(c)(3) organization that matches youth with volunteer mentors in Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan, Farmington, Lakeville and Rosemount. As president, Champine is the chief executive officer of Kids ‘n Kinship’s Board and has the general supervision and management of Kids ‘n Kinship’s affairs and business. She is responsible to see that resolutions of the Board of Directors are implemented.
Champine has served on the Kids ‘n Kinship’s board since 2009. She’s been managing and maximizing the publicity that helps spread awareness of the organization’s mission and to tell its story.
Kids ‘n Kinship is a private non-profit organization that matches youth who have a need for an additional supportive relationship with carefully screened adult volunteers. Once a match has been made, mentors spend one to four hours per week with the youth. Typical activities might include biking, playing catch, attending sporting events, sharing interests such as cooking or going to the movies. Volunteers make a one-year commitment to the program. These relationships often grow into life-long friendships.
Champine brings more than 19 years of marketing and leadership experience to the Kids ‘n Kinship board. In addition to her role as Media Relations partner, she leads our entire publicist team in securing radio, TV, print and online news coverage for our clients.
