The United Way of Perth Huron has a new Manager of Community Development for the Southern Huron and Goderich and area.
Michelle Field comes to UWPH after a combined total of seven years between the Huron Residential Hospice and the Rotary Hospice Stratford Perth. Prior to her time with the Huron and Stratford Perth hospices, Field worked at Victim Services Huron County, working with vulnerable people through referrals, advocacy and collaboration.
“We’d like to welcome Michelle to UWPH,” said Beth Blowes, chair of the Goderich and Area Community Committee. “The committee is looking forward to working together to continue building on United Way’s local work in Goderich and area.”
“It’s exciting to start on this journey,” said Michelle Field. “UWPH’s core values, their commitment to community and helping vulnerable people, is what drew me to the organization. The Huron community is my community and I want to help make it an even better place to live. I’m looking forward to meeting our supporters throughout Goderich and area and Southern Huron.”
“In addition to welcoming Michelle to UWPH, I’d like to thank Lori Shatto, our outgoing manager community development in Southern Huron and Goderich and area,” added UWPH Executive Director Ryan Erb. “Lori’s knowledge and experience were invaluable to UWPH and we celebrate all she brought to her role.”
