The Burgundy Brick Foundation is Named Women Ambadassdor’s for Habitat for Humanity’s 2011 Women’s Build

Toronto, Ontario, June 9 – The ladies of the Burgundy Brick Foundation have been selected as 2011 Women Ambassadors. On Saturday, May 7 they joined the other inspirational “Habitat Angels” to lift a hand at the new Kingston road build site.

“We’ve been involved with Habitat for Humanity Toronto for five years, attending more than a few one-day builds and to be selected among so many hard-working and inspiring women in Toronto means so much to all of us,” said Alexandra Nikolajev, Managing Director, The Burgundy Brick Foundation.

Habitat for Humanity Toronto recognizes that women wear so many different hats in life. As mothers, daughters, wives, partners, sisters, friends, business and community leaders, philanthropists and volunteers. This women’s build provides the opportunity for women to consider wearing a hat that they’ve possibly never worn before – a hard hat. In doing this they are able to help so many deserving families in Toronto reach their dream of having a home to call their own.

“These women were not only named Women Ambassador’s because of the monetary donations that they have provided to Habitat for Humanity Toronto, it is the awareness they have created around our organization that really counts,” said Neil Hetherington, CEO, Habitat for Humanity Toronto.

The Burgundy Brick Foundation is inspired by the hard-working and deserving recipient families in Toronto and to be able to represent the women of Toronto as an ambassador and motivate others to get involved and lend a helping hand is what this is all about.
