2025 August – Treasurer Position | Southlands Therapeutic Riding Society Seeking a Treasurer

STaRS IS LOOKING FOR A TREASURER

The Southlands Therapeutic Riding Society (STaRS) has provided therapeutic riding services for adults, children and youth living with physical, cognitive and emotional disabilities since 2006. We have 50 riders in our therapeutic riding program and 15 participants in equine facilitated wellness, with a growing waiting list of more than 40 individuals. We are a registered charity in British Columbia, and we are located in the beautiful Southlands neighbourhood in Vancouver.

STaRS operates with a volunteer Board of Directors, an Administrative Coordinator and a Volunteer Coordinator. We seek a special person interested in giving back to the community by supporting children and adults with disabilities to benefit from equine therapy.

The STaRS treasurer attends monthly Board meetings, liaises with our bookkeeper, monitors and approves monthly income and expenditures and financial reports, assists in preparing the operating budget, and prepares the annual financial report.

Even if you have no equine experience, please consider joining our Board of Directors to support children, youth and adults who benefit physically and emotionally from the wonder of the horse!

If you are interested in serving as STaRS treasurer, please send a brief letter of interest, including relevant professional and personal experience, to the STaRS Coordinator, Stars@ponies.ca.
