CHRIS TODD | OPERATIONS COMMITTEE MEMBER
Chris grew up in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa, after which he relocated to Gauteng Province to further his studies and career.
In his later years, Chris completed his Bachelor of Accounting Sciences Degree (Cum Laude) through the University of South Africa and achieved two professional designations – “Professional Accountant (SA)” and “Professional Tax Practitioner (SA)” through the South African Institute of Professional Accountants (SAIPA). Chris’s career spans almost 30 years in Senior Finance positions of the Gold Mining and Manufacturing Industries in South Africa.
He is married to Karen and they have two daughters, who unfortunately missed the camp experience, as SWAMP only launched in Johannesburg when they were adults.
Baptised in 1997, Chris and Karen together led the Children’s Ministry in the Johannesburg Church of Christ for approx. 10 years. Karen was instrumental during the SWAMP launch, with Chris becoming “hands on” a couple years later, assisting with administration and loving being behind the camera taking the “candid snaps”. Having a heart for camp, they also served with the launch of SWAMP Zimbabwe, assisting with administration and training.
Chris and Karen served for a number of years as Family Group Leaders in Johannesburg and Port Elizabeth, with Chris also recently serving on the Advisory Board of Trustees as treasurer, for the Port Elizabeth Church of Christ.
Chris hopes to add value, through his financial knowledge and insight, to compliment the already experienced and dedicated Board.
