Volunteer & Fundraising Manager
Sue’s experience within social services, civic engagement organizations, higher education and health care, includes engaging volunteers, developing partnerships, anti-racism and anti-oppression work, grassroots advocacy, political organizing, and a wide range of fundraising disciplines.
Please reach out to Sue with your suggestions and requests regarding volunteering, engagement opportunities for local businesses, and financial support to BurlingtonGreen:
Inspired by early years in nature, Sue loves to camp, hike and canoe. Some of Sue’s favourite ways to tread more lightly on the planet include no-till vegetable gardening, re-usable food containers, cooking and baking from scratch (especially dried legumes!), taking walks, eating little meat, less air travel, advocating for local change through her neighborhood residents association, and working at BurlingtonGreen!
As stewards of the earth, we have the responsibility to honour and respect the four directions, land, waters, plants, animals, and all of the wonderful elements of creation that exist.
We honour all the First Nation, Métis and Inuit people who have been living on the land since time immemorial and we recognize their leadership in protecting and caring for Mother Earth.
In Burlington, our work with the community takes place within the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, represented by Treaty 14 and 19 and on the traditional territories of the Anishinaabeg (Ah-nish-in-nah-beg), Attawandaron (At-tah-wahn-da-ron), Haudenosaunee (Ho-den-oh-sho-nee) and Metis peoples.
We honour these rightful caretakers of this sacred land surrounding the Great Lakes, and we are grateful for their teachings.
We encourage everyone to continually learn from and about the Indigenous community where you live, and how we can each meaningfully honour the calls to action for Truth and Reconciliation.
