Welcome to Mike Anderson, the newest member of our Finance Team
We want to take this opportunity to welcome Mike Anderson, who joined Community Ventures Society as the Assistant Manager of Finance on April 4th, 2025.
Mike brings with him 20 years of accounting experience, having worked in the private, for-profit construction and engineering industries, where he has developed a strong expertise in financial management.
Mike is excited to be part of the CVS team. As Mike shares:
“My passion for helping individuals with developmental disabilities stems from my personal experience growing up with two brothers who have developmental disabilities. This inspired me to work as a community support worker, where I gained valuable experience in supporting vulnerable individuals. I’m excited to contribute my expertise to CVS and support its mission of opening doors to opportunities for children and adults with developmental disabilities and their families so that they live the life they choose.”
We are excited to welcome Mike to the team and look forward to working with him in the coming weeks and months.
