Best Wishes, Peggy Kidd!

It is with bittersweet sentiment that we share the news that Executive Director and Partner, Peggy Kidd, has decided not to return to SVP as ED after her family leave. Peggy helped to usher SVP into the next stage of growth and was instrumental in doubling the size of the organization from 65 to 130 Partners. She did an outstanding job during the last five years, and she will be greatly missed. As an integral part of the San Diego community, we know we’ll see her and her twin baby girls, Alyssa (above) and McKaylee (below), touching the lives of others. Peggy, thank you for your leadership, positive energy and dedication to the community. We wish you well in this new season of life!

The board is embarking on a search for a new Executive Director. In the meantime, Marion Paul will continue to serve as our interim Executive Director until a new ED is found.
