Leading by example in our community

To continue to do the work that we do, it is imperative that we connect with our community, raise funds and re-invest them back into our programs and services throughout the Maritime provinces.

This inaugural event will bring together approximately 150 prominent business people, and community leaders from around the region for a morning of networking, entertainment and education, all in support of the work that The Salvation Army is doing right here in the Maritimes.

Keynote Speaker: Catriona Le May Doan

A Canadian Olympic icon, Catriona Le May Doan is a two-time gold medalist in speedskating. The first of her victories occurred in Nagano, Japan, in 1998, in the 500-metre competition. Four years later in Salt Lake City, Utah, Catriona kicked off the Games as Canada’s flag-bearer for the opening ceremonies before becoming the first, and still only, Canadian to defend an individual gold medal in any Olympic discipline. She also owns an Olympic bronze medal from the 1,000 metres in 1998, and still holds the Olympic record in the 500 metres.

In August Catriona will head to London as a member of the CTV broadcast team for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games.

Emcee: Steve Murphy

Originally from Saint John, N.B., Murphy has been a fixture of news broadcasting in the Maritimes for a more than three decades. After beginning his career in radio, he has worked on-air at CTV Atlantic since 1986, first as the host of Live at 5 before moving to anchor the newsdesk in 1993.

He has chaired the Christmas Daddies Fundraising Association for 15 years, in addition to hosting the Christmas Daddies annual telethon for an incredible 30 years. As the charity designated to distribute all Christmas Daddies funds to those in need, The Salvation Army has had the pleasure of working closely with Murphy in the past.
