Faye is one of Canada's philanthropic leaders. She brings to the Foundation a strong conviction that philanthropy can and should play a powerful role in shaping society. Since her arrival in 2005, she has led Canada's largest community foundation through a number of important changes designed to increase its impact in BC communities.

Prior to joining Vancouver Foundation, Faye was President of BC Children's Hospital Foundation for 14 years and then spent two years as Vice President of External Relations at University of Victoria. She has served as Executive Director for Sunny Hill Foundation for Children as well as Campaign Director for the United Way of the Lower Mainland. She has also been a member, on the board, and/or served as president for numerous not-for-profits and other organizations.

Faye's vision and her strong commitment to philanthropy were recognized in 2004 when she was one of five women honoured with the "Influential Women in Business Award," an annual award presented by Business in Vancouver magazine.

Please join us for one of Vancouver's finest leaders.
