It is with mixed emotions that I announce the resignation of Jesse Dees, Chief Development Officer (3rd from right in photo) with the GBGH Foundation. Jesse has accepted a new challenge with the Mackenzie Health Foundation, and will begin this new chapter in December 2024.
Jesse has been an integral part of the GBGH Foundation team for the past two years, helping to grow the Foundation’s major gifts portfolio and helping to lay the groundwork for the upcoming capital campaign.
We will certainly miss Jesse’s dedication to excellence, her insightful direction on major gifts strategy and her commitment to protecting the best interests of our organization and our donors.
Please join me in extending congratulations to Jesse as she embarks on this new chapter in her career. Jesse’s last day at GBGH will be Friday, November 15.
The Foundation will begin recruitment for a new Chief Development Officer in the next few weeks.
Thank you,
Joe Rooney
Chair
GBGH Foundation Board of Directors
