MAGDRL's Board of Directors - 2010 Secretary Candidate
Lisa Daum

Location: North Carolina

Rescue Experience: I became an active volunteer with MAGDRL in 2007 as a member of the Southern Virginia Chapter and transferred over to the Eastern North Carolina Chapter in 2008. Ready to jump right in, I started out as a foster parent and have fostered 21 danes to date. I have a soft spot for deaf and vision impaired. Each foster touches your heart, but the deafies take a piece of your heart with them.

Since becoming an active member of MAGDRL, I have volunteered in the areas of phone interviews, home visits, evaluations, transports and fundraising. In December of 2008, I became one of the Adoption Team Leaders for Eastern North Carolina. As an Adoption Team Leader, I ensure that each potential adopter that contacts our Dane Line receives a telephone call or email response within 24 hours and take them through the entire process up until there home visit has been completed. 

Originally, the lone volunteer in Camden, NC, I have been actively recruiting volunteers and now have 3 new foster families in my area.

Special Skills: I retired from the Navy in 2006 and am currently an Administrative Assistant working for the United States Government. I have excellent communication, organizational and management skills. I am also very crafty, I make merchandise to sell at meet and greet events and sew winter fleece jackets for our fosters that need them.

Motto: "Each foster touches your heart, but the deafies take a piece of your heart with them!"

Vision for MAGDRL: For MAGDRL to continue to provide quality care for the many homeless danes that are brought to us, as well as continue to increase public awareness.
