Associate Board

The Associate Board is an essential group as it develops the next generation of OhioGuidestone leaders and potential board members. Associate Board members are able to make a direct impact to benefit our community through volunteering, networking, fundraising and advocating for the services that OhioGuidestone provides its clients.

Marielle Miethke

Associate Board Co-chair

My first job out of college was at OhioGuidestone, and it was an amazing introduction into the non-profit world. When I decided to leave, I knew I would never really be ready to say “goodbye”. That is when I was introduced to our Associate Board, where I could continue to follow OhioGuidestone’s values of Faith, Integrity, Trust, Compassion, and Hope. As I am entering the leadership side to my career, I know this will be a great opportunity to expand my skills, serve our community, and develop professional relationships.
