First Northwest Bancorp and First Fed Announce the Retirement of Jennifer Zaccardo from Boards of Directors
PORT ANGELES, Wash., July 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Fed Bank and its holding company, First Northwest Bancorp (NASDAQ: FNWB) (collectively the “Company”), announced the retirement of Jennifer Zaccardo from the Company’s Boards of Directors, effective July 02, 2024.
“On behalf of the Board of Directors we thank Jennifer for her many years of valuable service, and we wish her the very best as she enters retirement,” said Cindy Finnie, Board Chair of FNWB and First Fed.
Zaccardo served on the First Fed Board for 13 years and the FNWB Board for 9 years, bringing a wealth of knowledge and dedication to the Company’s growth and success. She also recently served as Vice Chair of both boards from June 2022 to June 2023.
Zaccardo expressed appreciation of her fellow board members, stating, “It has been an honor to serve on the Board of such a forward-thinking and community-focused institution. I am proud of what we have achieved together and confident that First Fed will continue to thrive and make a positive impact.”
Previously, Zaccardo served as the President and Treasurer at Baker, Overby & Moore, Inc., a public accounting firm with which she has been affiliated since 1983. Zaccardo is also a past President and Treasurer of the Peninsula College Foundation Board of Governors and served on the Quillayute Valley School Board of Directors for 10 years. She is a member of both The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Washington Society of Certified Public Accountants.
The Boards, through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, are actively engaged in ongoing recruiting efforts and have identified several potential candidates that offer the diversity, skills, and experience appropriate for Board membership. The Committee will also determine whether adding a new Board member is in the best interest of the Bank at this time.
