Who is a member?
Our members are the local governments of Massachusetts and their elected and appointed leadership.
The Nancy Galkowski Legacy Fund, which supports professional development opportunities for anyone working in local government, especially those looking to further their municipal management career, is now accepting applications.
Any professional development training or class will be considered, with the exception of college tuition. Past awards have included funding for training by the ICMA, SHRM and GFOA, the MMA-Suffolk Municipal Finance Seminar, and various independent trainings.
The online application form must be completed by June 1. The Legacy Fund Committee will consider applications and make awards.
Galkowski had a 35-year career in municipal management in Massachusetts and a passion for mentoring younger managers and being of service to her peers. Following her death in 2013, her Massachusetts Municipal Management Association colleagues established a fund to honor her memory and continue her legacy. The MMMA oversees the fund.
