I have been exposed to the fantastic work that The Hadley Community does through my father’s direct involvement in the charity as a member, and now President of the Board of Directors. I recently joined the board myself for several reasons. First and foremost, I believe that mental health and housing are two systemic problems in Canada that are not receiving the funding they require to tackle them. Second, I though it would be fun to get involved in charity work alongside my father, as well as one of our old family friends (Mr. Robin Burns). Finally, I thought that my experience working in international development and managing institutional funding could pro-vide an added value to the Hadley Board.
