Chairman & CEO
The Board Members of the Selmore Foundation recently voted to give Ms. Russaw the added position of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Foundation. Under her Leadership as Executive Director, we have established world wide partnerships which enabled staff to co-facilitate workshops in various languages. we have doubled donations of school supplies and clothing to our adopted village in Eros, Nigeria for each school year. She authors a daily Inspirational Newsletter and is Creative Writer for our Inspirational Website at www.selmores4excellence.org. Her forward thinking and vision allowed her to see a need and develop a proposal to meet that need. After review by the Board Members the new service will be added to the list of services we provide. We will be connecting the unemployed Professional with job opportunities, and matching those in need of mortgage information with the right resource.
