Testimonials
"Colleen worked for me for five years in the early 90s shortly after I arrived as
President of the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario. She was part of a team
that is responsible for turning around a solid organization with static revenues
into a dynamic, growth oriented one with a strong bottom line focus. During her
tenure, the whole approach to bequests and planned giving was revamped and resulted
in a significant increase in Foundation net revenues. Colleen is a strategic thinker
who brings a thoroughly professional approach to all her activities. If you are
looking for planned giving revenue growth and a strong bottom line, then this is
the person you should be talking to.”
Rick Gallop. Former President and CEO, Heart
and Stroke Foundation of Ontario.
"I've worked with Colleen for over a year and I find her work ethic and style impeccable.
She is truly a professional who knows her stuff. Colleen has many years experience
in her field and can answer any questions you might have about planned giving. I'm
grateful to have her on my team."
Patricia Wilkinson, Manager – Individual Giving,
Ontario March of Dimes
"With the warmth of a doting grandmother and the “know-how” of the skilled planned
giving professional that she is, Colleen is a dynamic and effective teacher. She
has the capacity to bring an understanding of the complexities of her craft to the
beginning volunteer as well as the seasoned development officer. Colleen gives practical
ideas that are eminently “do-able” for organizations large and small."
Carl MacMillan,
Executive Director, L’Arche Daybreak
"I’ve known Colleen since 1989. She has always been a leader in the area of gift
planning. This is the third decade that she has worked in Planned Giving and many
organizations have benefited from her expertise. I am pleased to recommend her."
