Building resilience from grief through partnerships

​Building resilience can be done by helping others. I’ve seen this demonstrated in establishing two fundraising campaigns after the death of loved ones:

- the first was for people living with a brain tumour.
- the latest is in supporting a program at the High Park Nature Centre (HPNC) in Toronto.

The latter was established when my daughter Isobel Fanaki suddenly passed away in November 2024. Although she was living in Japan at the time, her previous employment was at the HPNC as an educator.

Her brother and I are not professional fundraisers but leading with our hearts we collected thousands of dollars to sponsor a program which will allow children to experience fantastic programs in High Park without the burden of financial constraints.

We know that this would make Isobel very happy. Thank you to our generous donors. ❤️

What RESILIENT PEOPLE fans are saying...

"This is one of my regular podcast listens. Janet's gentle and personable interview style makes me feel like I'm in the room with her and her guest having a relaxed chat. Even though the guests reveal challenging circumstances, the tone is one of positivity - I come away educated and inspired."
