Mary-Em WaddingtonMary-Em has over 20 years working in the non-profit sector and as Executive Director of BC Technology for Learning Society. Her career and community focus has been centered on education and environmental issues, volunteering with the Recycling Council of BC, Computers for Success Canada, and as President of the Canadian Parents for French - Surrey Chapter (CPF).
Through her role with CPF she met Cindy and Charlene and has been a committed member of Surrey Students NOW as an advisor and editor since inception. As a long time Surrey resident with two children in SD#36, Mary-Em has seen how overcrowding of local schools, lack of capital infrastructures, and lack of space has limited students access to library time, gyms, sports clubs, and even bathrooms. |
Why we are working together.
I am running with Cindy because I’ve been continually impressed by her forthrightness in building key relationships across Surrey, her work ethic, and her integrity. She is determined to make a better Surrey for our students. Who doesn’t want to work with (or vote for) someone like that?
I am running with Charlene because she is a steadfast ambassador for public education. I have seen her commitment to her ideals in supporting our students across her volunteer work, her willingness to show up at board meetings and the joy she receives from interacting with kids. She brings experience as a past trustee to the table and a desire to enact positive change.
