Leading by example

I first connected with United Way back in high school in Windsor, when I proudly served as a student ambassador. From that moment on, I discovered the joy that comes from being part of something bigger than myself and supporting the incredible work United Way does in our community.

Through my workplace campaign, that connection has only grown stronger. Volunteering with partner agencies and seeing the impact up close has been eye-opening. It’s where I’ve truly seen lives changed and hope restored. When I had the privilege of serving as my workplace campaign chair, I gained a whole new perspective. I saw firsthand the incredible difference that leadership donors make in building a stronger, more caring community. That experience deeply inspired me, and it’s what led me to become a leadership donor myself. It’s my way of helping ensure United Way can continue creating lasting change where it’s needed most.”
