CEO, BC & Alberta Guide Dogs

Literally, not a minute of the 24-hour clock goes by where someone is not volunteering on behalf of the Organization. On behalf of Linda and I and our entire professional staff, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for either your five minutes of volunteering or 24/7 volunteering. It is never lost on me, the dedication, passion and commitment of each and every one of our volunteers, past and present.

I often receive a lot of the credit for the work of BC & Alberta Guide Dogs, but in reality, our volunteers and stakeholders are the Organization and I have never lost sight of that. Please take a moment to give yourselves a big pat on the back and acknowledge that your contribution does make a very genuine difference to the lives of the people that we serve – I salute you all and thanks a million!
