I was so shocked and humbled to receive this award and recognition. CEO's have worked so hard to lead teams through a year like no other. Teams have worked in times like no other. I want to also take a moment to recognise all the finalists, nominees and people who work in our wonderful industry. I am humbled to be recognised but this year the industry needs to be thanked and recognised because they keep stepping up and I am so proud to work with such kind, passionate and talented people at Good360 Australia and across the NFP sector. Thank you for all you do in your community.

Thank you to the organisers for being brave enough to hold a face to face event. Your support for Third Sector organisations, both large and small provides a wonderful boost to their workers and supporters. It was a fantastic night in all ways, ambiance, food, wine and entertainment. I felt very lucky and privileged to be there. Every detail was incredibly well organised, right down to supplying masks for those who had forgotten the theme was ‘Masquerade’. I think you managed to hold the perfect Post Covid celebration. Congratulations. I will certainly be there in 2022 if I am fortunate enough to be invited.
