I have been part of the board of directors since 2016 I’ve grown up with S.H.A.R.E. as my grandfather was one of the founders. I like that S.H.A.R.E.'s projects all provide a hand up to people in need and have a "pass on" principle. I work in the Hospitality Industry, as the Food, and Beverage Supervisor at a Golf Course. I love that our projects have an agricultural focus, and am especially drawn to funding of well water projects.
In 2000, my wife and I went on a monitoring trip to Belize with a group of volunteers and were impressed with the S.H.A.R.E. philosophy.
I started on the project committee and love that we fund projects that provide clean water.
I was always drawn to S.H.A.R.E. because of our ‘hand up' and not a 'hand-out’ principle.
Responding to opportunities to provide services to others has led me to volunteer since my 20’s.
Jim joins S.H.A.R.E. as a director in October 2022. Jim grew up on a farm in Stouffville Ontario.
