Meet Jim Esposito, our new FY21 Chair of the Board of Directors.

Meet Jim Esposito, our new FY21 Chair of the Board of Directors.

Jim is the Credit Team Manager at Wells Fargo and has been an active participant on the board for the past five years. Having served as member and Chair of the Finance and the Board Development committee, Jim has been a key participant in the growth of our organization.

Having volunteered early in his career and as a community banker, Jim was encouraged and supported by his employers to become involved in the local community. He joined The Bridge because he aligned with our mission and making a difference in the lives of those he meets has always been a part of his personal vision. Giving back to his community has become a behavior and habit for him.

As the new Board Chair, Jim hopes to build on the efforts of the multiple Board committees and increase financial resources to expand services, while increasing staff satisfaction and longevity. Upon taking this new leadership role, he shared, “Acknowledging and reinforcing the efforts of so many others is something a leader needs to do on a consistent basis. My role is a small one when compared to the contributions of our donors, volunteers, staff, committee members and board.”

Congratulations to Jim for becoming the new Board Chair. We look forward to working with you.

The Bridge is grateful for all of our volunteers that assist in our different programs. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, see all opportunities here. We are always looking for individuals and corporate groups to volunteer with our agency.
