As a national charitable organization, we have been extremely grateful to work with Sue. She approached HelpAge Canada to be the charitable partner for a national corporate client several years ago – our relationship continues to this day. Over the years, she has assisted HelpAge Canada to grow our capacity as our relationship with the funder grew and more was required of us.

Sue brings a wealth of experience, insight and integrity to her work. I truly believe in her ability to help guide the corporate social responsibility actions of any organization to maximize impact, while ensuring an approach that aligns with organization values and goals. I wholeheartedly attest to her sage advice and unwavering commitment to her clients.”
