About the Sea to Sky Thrivers

The Sea to Sky Thrivers Society was created in response to the shockingly high prevalence and growing diagnosis of chronic diseases like cancer and diabetes in Canada. The organization is dedicated to designing education, training and community building around real food – highly nutritious unprocessed whole foods that are proven to radically improve health, reverse chronic disease and therefore reduce dependency on medication.

Now in its tenth year, the Sea to Sky Thrivers Society (a registered charity) has already delivered several nutritional programs in Mount Currie, Whistler, Squamish, Pemberton and the Vancouver area in British Columbia. The education is focused on preventing, treating and reversing chronic degenerative illnesses (or lifestyle diseases) using food as medicine.

Current Priorities

The Board will help guide the Society’s role in the charitable access model connected to the Regenerative Health Hotel on Vancouver Island. This includes supporting fundraising, strengthening community partnerships, expanding access for BIPOC and equity-deserving communities, and helping develop education, training, and research initiatives that advance chronic disease reversal and mental wellbeing.

General Responsibilities of Board Members

Board members serve in a volunteer capacity and help provide oversight, guidance, and support for the Society’s charitable work. Members are expected to attend at least four board meetings per year, participate in a committee or task force, and contribute their experience, networks, and perspective to help advance the organization’s priorities. Board members will also receive access to the Eat Real to Heal course and a consultation with Nicolette as part of their orientation.

Qualifications

We are seeking dedicated, values-aligned individuals who are passionate about health equity, food-as-medicine, community wellbeing, regenerative systems, and expanding access to healing for underserved communities.

As we enter a new phase of growth connected to the Regenerative Health Hotel on Vancouver Island, we are looking for board members who can bring experience in areas such as governance, fundraising, healthcare, research, Indigenous relations, finance, law, community development, education, or systems change.

We especially welcome applicants from BIPOC and equity-deserving communities, as well as individuals with lived or professional experience in health, healing, and community impact.

Application Process
