Help Kathleen raise money

My name is Kathleen Gouveia and I served on the Old Colony Elder Services Board of Directors from 2017 until 2020. During that time I learned so much about the agency and was able to assist my clients with the support of OCES. A little bit about me: I graduated from Bridgewater State University with my bachelors in social work in 2017. I worked as an Outreach Coordinator for the Town of Easton, and currently work for Elder Affairs. 
I was raised and currently live in Wareham, MA with my husband and our two dogs, 4 year old chocolate lab, Riley and 2 year old German Shepard, Macie.

I enjoy running. It is a challenge, but it is truly rewarding and it allows me to take care of my mind and body!

I am running for OCES because I want to raise money for this agency who continues to do amazing things for the communities they serve. I am passionate about OCES and their mission.
