We are excited to announce that Robyn Blanchet is the successful candidate for the Community Giving Officer position with the GBGH Foundation.  Robyn will start with the team on Monday, April 15, 2024.

Robyn joins the GBGH Foundation after spending the last six years with the RVH Foundation.

Robyn began her career with Central Ontario Broadcasting (Rock 95 and Kool FM) in the Promotions department, where she worked with many local charities and developed a passion for community fundraising.

Robyn has expressed her excitement about joining the GBGH Foundation: “I’m excited to join the GBGH Foundation, and use my skills and experience to support this great community hospital. I’m looking forward to returning to my roots in community fundraising, and being part of an awesome team at the same time.”

Please join us in extending a very warm welcome to Robyn. Her experience, knowledge and relationship-focused approach will greatly assist the Foundation in our mission to empower GBGH to deliver excellent health care.
