Stories of Gratitude
Tammy Whelen
Ontario, Canada
It was after my cancer treatment and recovery that I decided that I needed to quit my job and do something meaningful. I had a second chance on life, and didn’t see value in sitting behind a desk any longer. After a successful and random fundraising event to support the hospital that saved my life, my oncologist Dr. Neil Bernstein, encouraged me to consider this as a career. I remember him saying “you are good at this, you should do this for a living”. This conversation ignited a spark to find out more about an event planning and fundraising career, which led me back to College, and changed the trajectory of my life moving forward.
