I became involved in January 2020 as the Board’s voluntary secretary. I have spent my career working in agriculture organizations in Ontario. I am currently employed as on operations and project manager. It’s exhilarating to be working with an organization that has positively changed the lives of so many people. I continue to marvel at the generosity and commitment of S.H.A.R.E. donors and volunteers, supporting innovative projects providing a hand up and not a handout. S.H.A.R.E. consists of an incredible team of volunteers, I’m humbled and honored to be involved.
Growing up I saw two different worlds, and this shaped a desire to help the most vulnerable.
As a 40+ year donor I’ve supported S.H.A.R.E.'s practical and effective projects that help people help themselves.
During a monitoring trip to Brazil, I saw first-hand a project which had been funded 13 years earlier that was still benefitting from the pass-on-principle.
Following my retirement from teaching, I assisted my husband Les in doing S.H.A.R.E.’s project management.
I became involved with S.H.A.R.E. in 2021 while they were making significant advances in their presence online.
