Hi, my name is Peter Gilgan and I am the President and CEO of Mattamy Homes Ltd.
Mattamy has supported United Way of Oakville since 2002. We LIVE UNITED by running a very spirited employee campaign every year with tremendous support from everyone involved. Our campaigns are completely employee organized and driven. They are a chance for everyone to come together and have some fun, last year we held a red carpet event and handed out Oscars to celebrate participation levels. Holding a United Way campaign is a chance to energize your employees and build morale, all while raising money for an important cause.
Our employees have always been extremely generous and it's always been an easy decision for us at Mattamy to follow their lead and match their donations. We're all about 'home' at Mattamy and Oakville is our home town.
I encourage you to join me, and LIVE UNITED.
Believe that together we can make a difference in our community.
Hi, my name is Victoria.
When my father passed away, my family was blown apart. I was vulnerable and fell into a verbally and emotionally abusive relationship. My self esteem was slowly stripped, my spirit broken. I felt so hopeless. After I left the relationship, a friend introduced me to Halton Family Services, a UWO funded agency, where my son and I received counseling for almost 3 years. They gave my son and I a second chance at life.
My journey has inspired me to help others. For the past 3 years I have run the United Way campaign at my office to ensure that help will be there for others when they need it. I encourage you to donate; your donation can change the life of someone like me!
Believing in myself and others is how I LIVE UNITED.
After all, there is no better way to live than to LIVE UNITED!
Inspire others through your actions as a donor or volunteer.
Hi, my name is Chris and this is my family.
I believe it is important to LIVE UNITED to create a better community for every family in Oakville. I LIVE UNITED by donating through my workplace campaign, as well as volunteering at United Way of Oakville.
I currently oversee my office program, and recently I have begun to mentor others to ensure they have the necessary tools and confidence to run successful workplace campaigns. I also sit on the United Way Campaign Cabinet to help create the annual campaign strategies. Volunteering with United Way has allowed me to develop and improve many skills such as teamwork, leadership and public speaking. I have met some incredible people along the way and look forward to meeting many more.
I encourage you to join me and LIVE UNITED. Together we can make Oakville an even better place to live and work!
Inspiring others is how I LIVE UNITED.
