MEMBER STORIES

Anna Hunt-Binkley, Kelowna, British Columbia


Tell us about your ‘history’
I was born in Regina Saskatchewan, enjoyed my younger years between a small prairie town, Winnipeg, and Brandon. I graduated from the University of Manitoba first with a Bachelor of Nursing Degree and then a law degree. I married a Brandon boy and our three extra special sons were born there. We moved to B.C.  in 1991 and currently I keep busy with various community organizations, my horses and family.

How long have you been a member of the Tiffany Circle and why did you join?
Several years ago, I was asked and agreed to chair a Kelowna Red Cross three million dollar Building for Humanity campaign. Chairing a fundraising effort requires immersing oneself in the organization and leading by example. When the Red Cross philanthropy staff understood my donation, she advised that it qualify me to become a Tiffany Circle member to which I replied what does that mean? A number of months later I was planning a trip to Virginia to visit an aunt and the same Red Cross staff person suggested I attend the US Tiffany Circle Washington summit, to meet some of the other Canadian TC members - the rest is history.    

What inspires you?
Knowing that one person or one small act of kindness can truly make a difference in someone’s life.
 
 
Laura Isidean, Toronto, Ontario


Tell us about your ‘history’
I was born and raised in Montreal. I spent 20 years in the capital markets industry before moving on to my second act, which involves serving on non-profit boards and volunteering with international and community organizations. I now live in Toronto with my husband and beautiful tween daughter.

How long have you been a member of the Tiffany Circle and why did you join?
I joined 3 years ago after attending my first Anniversary event in Winnipeg at the invitation of another TC member (Jean Lam).  I was already a Red Cross volunteer, so I saw this as an opportunity to deepen my commitment to the organization while joining a vibrant community of female philanthropy leaders.

What inspires you?
My 10-year old daughter – she is beautiful inside and out and inspires me to be a better person every day.a
