I have personally had the pleasure of working closely with Heather over the past several months and I couldn’t be more appreciative of her contribution! Heather was an essential part of the CN Tower Climb Team helping with projects before, during and after the event. Prior to the climb, Heather outreached to local business to promote the event, organized supplies and art work, and prepared recognition materials. At the climb, Heather’s support in the volunteer registration area was invaluable! Her incredibly positive attitude, ability to think on her feet and problem solving skills made the entire process run smoothly. Since the climb, Heather has taken on the detailed task of updating our volunteer database with hundreds of records and is helping to advance the volunteer program.
Heather is truly an integral part of the Panda Family and we are so thankful for her support! Interested in finding out more about Heather’s volunteer experience? Read about her perspective in this blog or watch A Day in the Life of a WWFer and look out for her cameo!
