Heather Gingras

Board of Directors

Heather has spent a large part of her career in the corporate world. When she felt that was coming to an end, she felt like she truly began to do what she calls a dream come true: the ability to serve on our Board of Directors and providing direct support to our staff. Heather has been married to Rob for 30 years, and they have three kids and two grandchildren. Originally from Gatineau, Quebec, they now live in Burlington, Ontario. Heather has participated and provided team leadership on numerous Live Different Builds. She loves to cook and entertain – and her specialty is family dinners, where everyone is considered family. She loves good belly laughs with friends, connecting in the communities we work with through our Build Trips, and seeing lives changed through our programs. She also loves yoga and is currently working on perfecting her handstand. 🙂
