[SMO] – Single Mothers Outreach has announced that DaAnne Smith, executive director of SMO, has decided to retire in June and join the board of directors, starting an orderly leadership transition over the next four months.
Smith’s decision to retire will bring to a close a remarkable tenure that took Single Mothers Outreach from the brink of closure to a thriving organization considered one of the leading non-profits in the Santa Clarita Valley.
“DaAnne Smith has been an extraordinary leader who has managed the charity through challenging times and major transitions,” said Martin Rodriguez, chairman of the board. “The board is grateful for her innumerable contributions to the organization and her distinguished tenure over the last eight years.”
“I’ve been privileged to lead one of our Valley’s great community organizations,” Smith said. “I have carried the sometimes great but always fulfilling burden of caring for the diverse needs of the single parent and restoring Single Mothers Outreach to a healthy and respected Santa Clarita nonprofit.
Our board of directors and staff are stronger than ever and poised to take the organization to the next level in their passionate and determined quest to fulfill our organization’s most noble goals and mission. I am proud to leave the organization in a place of strength.”
