Thank You!
Wow! What a day! What an event! What an impact! The second Day of Hope and Leadership once again delivered on its promise that it is one of the most unique days designed for today's leaders. Canada's only personal, professional, philanthropic day saw over 250 people become inspired, motivated and moved to live out the theme of the day that "Ordinary Actions can have Extraordinary Impacts!"
After listening to our amazing speakers inspire and motivate our guests, we presented the audience with a unique challenge to commit unconditional acts of giving. Each participant was given a brand new $20 bill and was imparted with the task to use the $20 to create an extraordinary impact. If you go to the $20 challenge page you will see how great a success this task was! People were inspired beyond our imagination. Collectively, we created a tsunami of unconditional giving within our community!
Without you, this incredible wave of good will could not be possible. We want to sincerely thank each one of you who attended. We thank each one of you who participated in the challenge and told us about it - your stories were truly inspiring and emotional.
We also want to thank our sponsors: RBC Royal Bank, the Investors Group, Veridian, Ontario Power Generation, Whitby Hydro and Assante Wealth Management - the Day of Hope and Leadership would not be possible without your support.
On behalf of our Hope Team - thank you all for making the Day of Hope and Leadership a success and for providing us with the inspiration and motivation to move forward with our dream to create a tsunami of change within our community.
