A Note from Your President, Lois DeGhetto:

Hello OASFAA Members!

I am honored to serve as OASFAA’s President for the years 2021-23! I am so very proud of our members, colleagues and friends who have reached beyond their comfort zone, using multiple modalities to provide quality financial assistance and training opportunities during these unprecedented times. You warm my heart with the high level of care you give our students and colleagues every day!

Kim Lamborn was slated to be our president for 2021-22, but with her new position in Missouri starting in August 2021, she was unable to finish her presidency. However, that doesn’t mean she didn’t leave a legacy -- our 5-year Strategic Plan! This year the OASFAA Executive Council would like to invite your input while working on our strategic plan to strengthen and grow our organization. Please email me or anyone on the Executive Council your thoughts or suggestions. We would also like your thoughts and suggestions regarding training opportunities or if you know of someone/something who you think deserves professional recognition.

OASFAA needs you! Please consider getting involved by completing the Volunteer Preferences Form. If you’re unsure of what you can do to help, please feel free to contact me or any member of the Executive Council -- I’m sure we can find something!

Wishing you all happiness and good health. Be good to yourself, family, friends and colleagues -- we need to stay strong for each other!

Lois DeGhetto, 2021-2023 OASFAA President
