Christopher Minnes

As an environmental advocate, philanthropist and strategic visionary, I co-founded the Outaouais Environmental Campus (www.ecoecho.ca) in Wakefield, Quebec in 2008.

As chief development officer I live fully in the flow of money sourced from, and directed to, living wholeheartedly in an engaged practice of daily philanthropy to build strong and resilient communities.

Money is a conduit to facilitate the expression of my highest values and purpose. I am thoughtfully attuned to decisions around sourcing and spending money that enable me to participate fully in all activities that interest me.

I am committed to leaving a legacy that will benefit my partner and our mutual families beyond our respective lifetimes. I am grateful for the resources I’ve received and make responsible decisions that enhance their value.

My leadership in resource development for social-proft organizations unleashed millions of dollars and boundless energy for inspiring community purposes. These include performing arts, environment and education initatives throughout California, Hawaii, New York, Quebec and Texas.
