Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteers awards ceremony

On September 24, 2018, I was awarded the Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteers. After waiting 8 long years, today during national volunteers week, I was finally presented and invested with the honour at a very special ceremony in Ottawa at Rideau Hall, hosted by the honourable Mary Simon, Governor General of Canada. 

I want to thank her excellency, Mary Simon, as well as the former Governor General, Julie Payette. I also need to thank his majesty King Charles III as well as the late Queen Elizabeth II, for this incredible and most high honour for Canadian volunteers.🏅🎖️🇨🇦🍁❤️
I look forward to continuing volunteering and making a difference in Canada.
