Colleen Safarik
Secretary/Administration VP
Born and raised in Manhattan Beach, I first learned about Sandpipers in high school through various fundraisers and was inspired by the incredible impact this organization had in the South Bay community.
I joined Sandpipers in 2018 to continue my commitment to philanthropic efforts and deepen my personal connections in my hometown. Sandpipers has become my "third place," a welcoming place beyond home and work where I enjoy making new friends while contributing to something meaningful.
I have most recently served on the board as the Director of Operations (2024-2025). This year, I'm honored to be serving as the VP of Administration (2025-2026) and look forward to an exciting year with this inspiring group of women!
