Farewell Message from the Foundation Executive Director

It is with mixed emotions that I am writing to personally inform you that after nearly six years, I am leaving the Vancouver Police Foundation.

VPF has been an integral part of my life and I feel privileged to have worked here. I have worked for and with the best; my VPF team and VPD colleagues have become a family and we have shared an incredible journey together, which will always have a special place in my heart.

I would be remiss not to say a special thank you to the Foundation Chair, Mr. Darcy Wray, and the entire Board of Trustees for their leadership, commitment and guidance they have given me in this role. Also, a huge thank you to Chief Adam Palmer for being such a great leader and advocate for the Foundation – we are very fortunate to have him at the helm of the Vancouver Police Department!

Please accept my deepest gratitude for all you, the friends and supporters of the Foundation, have done during my time here to help us grow and advance the mission of the Foundation.

My last day with the Foundation will be Friday, June 1, 2018. The Foundation has engaged PFM Executive Search to assist with the search for my replacement. For more information, please visit https://pfmsearch.com/executive-opportunities/.

I look forward to staying in touch and hearing about the Foundation’s continued accomplishments.

Warmest personal regards,
