I have had a home on Martha’s Vineyard for 45 years and have been a permanent resident for fifteen years in West Tisbury. It has been a great honor to serve as a Board Member for the Permanent Endowment for five years. My hope is to grow the Endowment significantly so that we can help meet the growing needs of the island.
