We are thrilled to add our congratulations to Mina Wahidi on her recognition as Burlington’s Citizen of the Year.
Mina Wahidi - Burington Citizen of the Year
Mina is the Founder and Director of Compassion Society, and part of the Catalyst mentoring program. Her dedication to those in need in her community, her care for volunteers, and her willingness to be bold in pursuing opportunities to expand the profile and service of her organization make her a worthy recipient.

HEY HEY CHRIS! JUST POPPED ON YOUR WEBSITE TO SEE WHAT YOU ARE UP TO THESE DAYS. ANYWAY, I WAS INVITED TO SPEAK TO A GROUP OF UP AND COMING LEADERS. THE MAIN POINT I MADE WAS THAT NO ONE CAN GET THINGS DONE ALONE. YOU HAVE TO PULL IN A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT THE MISSION OR THE GOAL. LETS EVERYONES SKILLS SHINE, AND PEOPLE WILL TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE PROJECT.
I ALWAYS HAVE FOND THOUGHTS OF MY MENTORING THROUGH CATALIST. IT WASNT ALWAYS WARM AND FUZZY, WE HAD SOME DEEP CONVERSATIONS AND THINGS WE HAD TO ADMIT TO OURSELVES ABOUT WHAT WE NEEDED TO WORK ON, BUT IT MADE US BETTER, STRONGER AND MORE CONFIDENT.
THATS ALL FOLKS! CHEERIO!
