ACTRA TORONTO COUNCIL ELECTION
Terri Hawkes: a Nominee for your consideration
Hey ACTRA members,
Happy Thanksgiving!
On this day of gratitude, I'm grateful for ACTRA, and all the members and leaders who have shepherded this organisation since the 1940’s. I am running to be one of the 24 members of ACTRA TORONTO Council. Please check out my introductory video to get to know me a bit, and what I’ve learned from listening to a number of our members and councillors.
With regard to prioritising the issues that ACTRA is facing, please let me know your priorities and any ideas you might want to share.I will be posting a few more videos on a number of issues - between now and October 31 (when voting opens).
I hope you’ll take the time to check out all the talented and hard working members who are running for Council. I humbly ask that you consider voting for me as part of the new ACTRA TORONTO Council.
Thanks so much for your consideration.
Warmly,
Terri Hawkes

A community builder, Terri spends her time offstage participating in initiatives to aid her local and global community. She is on the board of the Annex Residents' Association, a non-profit that has served the people of The Annex community in Toronto since 1925. Its mission is to preserve heritage properties, monitor new development, create welcoming green spaces and parks, and foster a strong community spirit. Terri is the co-founder of Art4You, supporting youth from under-resourced Toronto communities in accessing the arts. She also co-founded the Dalton Road Residents Group, a volunteer group that is responding to Toronto’s housing crisis by supporting affordable, thoughtful densification for current and future residents of The Annex and beyond. A recent publication of Neighbours of Yorkville & The Annex highlighted Terri’s professional and community work as their feature story. (Digital copy below.)
