She served on the 9-R School Board and a number of nonprofit advisory boards and councils over the past decade. This demonstrates with actions, not just words, how much she cares about our community.

I know Youssef is a hard worker who dives in and gives 100 percent. She takes the responsibility of serving on council very seriously. Her broad background, expertise and experience as a business professional and community volunteer, coupled with her willingness to work hard, make her the ideal candidate for this position.

When your ballot arrives in the mail in mid-March, and is due April 4, please vote for Melissa Youssef.
