CONWAY — The Betty C. Ketchum Foundation recently announced the appointment of five community members to its board of trustees.
The foundation’s signature achievement was the opening of the Mount Washington Valley Adult Day Center in Center Conway in the fall of 2019. With a committed team of volunteer trustees, the Betty C. Ketchum Foundation will continue to serve the needs of older adults, those with dementia and their caregivers. The new trustees will join Board President and Co-Founder Norman Cloutier.
