In my time as a Volunteer Coordinator, I was responsible for the full cycle of volunteers engaged with the Foundation. From recruiting, placement, training, supervising and communications, I was lucky to engage with many fantastic volunteers. I grew comfortable with Volgistics and Raisers Edge, and also gained a lot of administrative experience in working with the Stollery Women's Network in planning events, attending meetings and working on data integrity projects.

I truly enjoyed this temporary contract position with United Way that saw me meeting with a variety of corporate donors to help them manage their campaigns, talk with their staff and support them in raising funds. My portfolio included AHS, Alberta Blue Cross, NAIT, MacEwan University, Deloitte, KPMG, Brownlee LLP and more.
