Meet The Board

Jim Churchill, President
Business Process Analyst, Keysight Technologies
A Sonoma County resident since 1980, Jim graduated from Santa Rosa Junior College with an AS degree in Electronic Technology before earning a BS in Information System Management from the University of San Francisco.

Matt Everson, Vice President & Financial Committee Chair
Owner, North Bay Fire Claim Assist
For over 20 years, Mr. Everson was a financial planner and eventually started his own firm, MJ Everson Financial, in 2001 to serve the financial planning needs of Sonoma County folks in a manner not often seen in that industry, as a fiduciary. In August of 2017, his wife and business partner Sarah, decided it was time for a change. They sold the firm and Matt is now devoted to bringing his business acumen and problem solving skills to a select few charities in Santa Rosa. Over the past year, as our city was hit hard by the October wildfires, Matt decided to temporarily begin a consulting practice to help fire survivors obtain a fair settlement from sometimes unfair insurance companies. His business has recovered over $20million additional dollars to help people rebuild their lives. He has two teenagers at home, enjoys international soccer and baseball, is an insatiable reader and loves traveling with his wife. As an alumnus of Leadership Santa Rosa, a longtime Rotarian, and a member of several local non-profit boards, he brings humor, a business mind, financial knowledge and his local connections to his philanthropy and service for Sonoma County.
