National Volunteer Week 2022

This week is National Volunteer Week. We’re taking a special moment to recognize all the individuals that make up our tremendous team of volunteers who make our work and services possible.

Dixon Hall is pleased to announce the appointment of Mina Mawani as our new Chief Executive Officer, effective May 2, 2022. Mina was unanimously chosen by our Board of Directors for her outstanding leadership in the nonprofit sector, as well as her passion for empowering communities and creating a city where everyone thrives.

Since the start of the pandemic, Dixon Hall Music School held its first music camp in two years. Twelve youths were invited to join a March Break Music Camp at our Bill Graham Youth Centre, where over the course of the week, students learned dialogue and music, culminating in the production of Mamma Mia!.

Today on #IWD, we sat down with some of the amazing women of Dixon Hall and had an open discussion; sharing advice they have for younger generations and how they’re continuing to #BreaktheBias in their careers and spaces.

Dear Dixon Hall: We started our love affair in May of 2018, it feels like yesterday. I haven’t seen you for some time. Well to be accurate, I haven’t truly seen all of you for some time.
