CORNWALL, Ontario – Juliette Labossière has been named as the new Executive Director of the United Way of SD&G.
Labossière will be heading the agency that helps to raise money and support 13 local agencies and 14 programs.
“I am incredibly proud to take on this leadership role within SD&G, and would like to thank the Board of Directors who have entrusted me with such an important role,” said Labossière. “For years I worked in the non-profit sector and can already see how many of the tasks I have done elsewhere will be easily transferred into this position. There is so much possibility in this community, and I am excited to be at the helm of an organization that can incite social change through collaborative community partnerships.”
As her first order of business, Labossière will be hosting the United Way’s annual Handbags for Heroes fundraiser at the Cornwall Civic Complex on Thursday, April 25.
