Jen Garden is the recipient of the 2024 Simone Joyaux Memorial Award<\/a>, which was established in 2021 by Dr. Sharilyn Hale<\/a> in honour of Simone, who was Dr. Hale’s mentor, colleague and friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI had the honour of meeting Simone Joyaux a number of years ago, when I did a fundraising workshop with her and other prominent fundraising leaders,” Garden says. “She was an absolute light, and she was funny, and she was brutally honest about the sector \u2013 and I saw a side of fundraising that I hadn’t seen before.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWatching her, I saw how I could become better, in 15 or 20 years, become a better fundraiser with a voice and personality similar to hers,” Garden adds. “I’m a bubbly person, with a big personality, but, at that point in my career, when I met her, I was in the arts sector, and fundraising then had a different, subdued tone. Seeing her, a vibrant, exciting person who could hold a room with her incredible personality, I saw what else I could do in future fundraising.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Award is for outstanding, part-time MPNL students, such as Jen Garden<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was thrilled to receive it,” Garden says. “On top of part-time studies in MPNL, I have a demanding full-time job, as Chapter Director with Make-A-Wish Canada, and my husband is a full-time student — and we have two young girls. So, making this journey through the MPNL program has taken time and money \u2013 and the gift of the award is life-changing at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019d like to thank Carleton University and the selection committee \u2013 and also thank Dr. Hale for establishing the award in Simone’s honour and memory,” Garden says. “It\u2019s humbling to be recognized, and I’m grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
