Ventura County Community Foundation annoncerer to nye bestyrelsesmedlemmer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this month, Ventura County Community Foundation (VCCF) welcomed Venkat Yepuri and Meryl Chase, two long-time Ventura County community members, to their Board of Directors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Venkat Yepuri has been with Amgen for over 19 years and currently serves as its Vice President of Global Business Solutions and Chief Procurement Officer. Prior to that, he had broad experience in the healthcare industry both in the U.S. and globally. A resident of Ventura County for 25 years, he has actively volunteered locally along with his family and has previously served on the Dean\u2019s Leadership Council at California State University, Channel Islands. Yepuri holds a master\u2019s degree in Biomedical Engineering from Case Western Reserve University and a bachelor\u2019s degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Delhi University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is a privilege to be on the Board of VCCF, and I am looking forward to serving the community and our donors in my role as a fiduciary. I am excited to support VCCF\u2019s mission to promote and enable philanthropy to improve our community,\u201d said Yepuri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am honored to welcome Venkat\u2019s strategic insights and vision to our Board of Directors and know he will be a valued voice at the table,\u201d said VCCF President & CEO Vanessa Bechtel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also joining the VCCF Board is Meryl Chase, co-owner of Clearmont, LLC, a family-owned real estate investment company. Chase considers serving the community her primary vocation. She was recently awarded Emeritus status by the Board of Directors of kidSTREAM, a Camarillo-based museum and nonprofit serving Ventura County\u2019s children. Additionally, Chase served a three-year term as kidSTREAM\u2019s Founding VP of Finance. She is also involved with such local organizations as Women\u2019s Economic Ventures and Women United, and especially enjoys her involvement with her son\u2019s school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chase considers joining Ventura County Community Foundation\u2019s board as \u201can opportunity to serve philanthropists and charitable organizations throughout Ventura County, and an extraordinary honor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Efter at have giftet sig ind i en vidunderlig tredjegenerations landmandsfamilie i Ventura County flyttede Meryl til Camarillo i 2007 og efterlod sig en karriere inden for reklame-, film- og tv-produktion. Hendes firma, LA-baserede Zystar Films, Inc. arbejdede med giganter som Ford, Acura, Intel, Toyota, Fox og Imagine Entertainment. Meryl mener, at UCLA's Anderson Graduate School of Management har givet hende den \u00f8konomiske indsigt, der skal til for at opbygge en succesfuld virksomhed i en meget konkurrencepr\u00e6get branche, og hun har fundet ud af, at hun trives i milj\u00f8er, der kombinerer \u00f8konomisk forvaltning med at tjene andre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs an active dedicated community member and supporter of VCCF, Meryl has helped shape our vision of a better Ventura County for all,\u201d said Bechtel, \u201cI am thrilled to welcome her to our board.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
