    Worked with other Hope Team volunteers to manage The Day of Hope and Leadership, a unique personal, professional and community development day. It was created to help equip, develop and motivate leaders to meet the challenges that many of us face today. Through this interactive day, attendees have the opportunity to be inspired by world class speakers and receive practical tools and ideas that can be easily adapted to each attendee’s environment. There is a strong philanthropic focus also; proceeds raised from the Day of Hope and Leadership are directed towards community development programs. The annual event in Durham Region supports the many free programs run in the Hope Centre of Learning and Oshawa Community Health Centre. Other Day of Hope and Leadership host communities will use the proceeds raised towards a charity in their community. We want to develop strong leaders as well as develop communities and help them build capacity in areas of need.
