Charitable giving

*Presented in English followed by a bilingual Q&A

I joined Kiwanis about 7 years ago. The activities and the comradery of the Kiwanis and, the fundraising to the benefit of the disadvantaged in the West Island community and Children in general, is an objective that resonates with me.

I’ll be happy to share my experience as Past-President and member of the board.

The subject of my presentation is “Charitable Giving”. How can my $ have a greater impact? What are the options?

About me

I was born and educated in Zurich, Switzerland. After immigrating to Canada, I worked initially in several jobs and industries, including sales, food, and mining.  In fact, I spent one year in Northern British Columbia in an open pit asbestos mining company, operating heavy equipment and performing other related work. 

I joined Air Canada as a Purser and expanded my commercial education at McGill University and CIREM-HEC while working “on the line”.  I held various management positions and spent the last 15 years in Senior Management as a Director in In-flight Service, Director in Information Technology, Director in Marketing and Director in Human Resources.  I retired after 32 years of service.

In 2010 I joined the Pension Planning Centre as Director, business development.  I am a licensed Financial Security Adviser in the Province of Québec since 2011 and now President of Aubert Financière and an authorized distributor affiliated with IDC WIN Quebec.
