In The News
Over the past several years, local media has highlighted a number of the community initiatives I've had the privilege of leading or supporting through Coffee Time Bolton. While these articles focus on different projects, they all reflect the same belief: that small, local actions can make a meaningful difference. From supporting families and schools to creating opportunities for neighbours to connect, I'm proud of what we've accomplished together - and I'm excited to bring that same community-first approach to serving Ward 5.

"#OneCaledonManyHearts"
In 2026, the One Caledon Many Hearts initiative expanded to more than 20 schools across Caledon, encouraging students to express kindness, belonging, and community through decorated wooden hearts. The project inspired unique displays throughout the town, with several schools creating permanent installations that continue to promote reflection, inclusion, and positive messages for students and staff.

"Annual Costume Swap"
In 2025, Coffee Time Bolton was featured for its annual Costume Swap, a community initiative that helps families reduce Halloween costs by giving gently used costumes a second life. Since launching in 2023, the program has rehomed over 100 costumes and continues to promote affordability, sustainability, and community support for local families.
