Ella Gill is a retired senior analyst from General Motors serving as an AmeriCorps RSVP (Retired and Senior Volunteer Program) service volunteer through the Valley Area Agency on Aging (VAAA). Ms. Gill has been serving with FGLN since 2018 as the Literacy Administrative Assistant.
Ms. Gill attended Northwood University and obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and enjoys being involved with programs focused on children, such as summer camps sponsored by her church. Through these opportunities, she noticed that the children were lacking in their reading and math skills. To advance children's education, Ms. Gill got involved in afterschool mentoring, which made a substantial difference in the children’s academics. Ms. Gill wants to share the knowledge that she has learned from working with the Flint & Genesee Literacy Network and inform anyone that wants to further their education. Importantly, she wants to educate parents on engaging and showing an interest in their child's education.
Additionally, Ms. Gill serves on the Board of Directors for Compassionate Care Network, an organization that provides housing opportunities for veterans and those seeking assistance, is a member of the Genesee County Literacy Coalition, participates in VAAA events and partnerships (Heart-to-Heart, AARP), and has led the Little Libraries pilot initiative under FGLN.
GCLC would like to thank Ms. Ella for her service and the excellent energy that she brings to every meeting and event!
