Short Bio or Organizational Mission:
Since 1986, we have supported our seniors by providing services that help them age safely in place. During the pandemic, our clients have relied on us for grocery delivery, rides to medical appointments, essential home repairs and more.
The Women of Ontario Social Enterprise Network (WOSEN) has released their Interim Report capturing the story of WOSEN, from launch to mid-way through its three-and-a-half-year initiative (2019-2023).
December can be a joyous, festive time of year for many. It’s also a time to reflect on the year behind us and to think about those who continue to have limited access to resources and support.
Pillar is happy to welcome three new colleagues and we are thrilled to add their extensive talents and expertise to the team. Please join us in welcoming Farzana Chohan and Salim Rocha who join us as Impact Consulting Associates, and Tanja Kueneman who joins us as Director of Finance.
“We romanticize the rust of aging systems, paint the exterior of collapsing buildings that house who we thought we were because it’s what we know – because it may serve us even, because demolition is destruction and destruction seems destructive. We forget the first step in constructing anything is to destroy what’s not working.” – Timaj Gerad
