We are proud to celebrate two of our outstanding volunteers, Susan Lieberman and Linda Dabydeen, who were recently recognized with Ontario Volunteer Service Awards under the Ontario Honours and Awards program. Their dedication, compassion, and leadership have made a lasting impact on our community.
Linda Dabydeen – 10 Years of Service
Linda has been a cornerstone of our volunteer team for over a decade, leading and facilitating our “Talk and Learn” program with empathy and cultural awareness. Her work is grounded in a deep understanding of the challenges our clients face, and she consistently builds strong, empowering relationships.
Linda’s ability to connect with individuals from all walks of life, while promoting Canadian values of openness and inclusion, has made her a trusted and inspiring presence in our community.
Susan Lieberman – 5 Years of Service
Since joining us in 2018, Susan has brought warmth, creativity, and a deep sense of inclusivity to everything she does. Through her signature “Speak Up with Susan” sessions, she has created a welcoming space for participants to practice English, share ideas, and build confidence.
Susan also developed a five-part IELTS preparation course specifically designed for caregivers, equipping them with essential language skills and tools for success. Her thoughtful approach and commitment to empowering others have touched the lives of many.
We are incredibly grateful for Susan and Linda’s years of service and thrilled to see their contributions recognized at the provincial level. Their unwavering commitment to building a stronger, more inclusive community continues to inspire us all.
Thank you, Susan and Linda, for everything you do!
