Paul Conrod is the Chair of the Board of Trustees, IWK Foundation.
As we gather with friends and family for holiday celebrations, it is comforting to know we live in a community of heroes. These are our doctors, surgeons, researchers, and caregivers who go above and beyond the call of duty. From my experience with the IWK Foundation Board, patients and families benefit greatly from these special people who exemplify the spirit of the holiday season through their everyday actions.
Add to this list of heroes, the generous donors who continually show the Maritime way with strong charitable giving that funds so many wonderful causes. Many of these gifts are made anonymously without much attention or fanfare. We live in a generous and special part of the world. Thank you to everyone for making a difference this holiday season and year round.
To quote Michael Enright; ”We can’t all be heroes. Some of us must sit on the curb and clap as they go by. ”
