Meridian | Manager, Social Impact and Community Partnerships
Ian McCann’s professional experience touches both the non-profit and corporate sectors, always focused on social purpose. His five years in the non-profit sector included time in various fund development spaces, from peer-to-peer to planned giving. Since then, he has worked with Meridian Credit Union’s Social Impact team, building partnerships with nonprofits focused on mutual benefit, corporate engagement, and most importantly impact. Ian also serves on the board of Experiences Canada, a national nonprofit that delivers barrier-free cultural exchange opportunities for Canadians from coast to coast to coast. When not at work he enjoys playing the fiddle, playing soccer, and spending time with his dog, Marshal. Despite living in Canada since 2010, Ian remains a die-hard fan of his hometown Boston sports teams, a fact not appreciated by the many Montrealers and Torontonians in his life.
Volunteer Canada teams up with some of their corporate partners to Disrupt Volunteerism! What does that mean? Disruptive innovation is an information exchange designed to energize, inform, and empower social impact practitioners and non-profit organizations to think differently about the future of volunteerism. What’s meeting the moment today may not be what carries us forward tomorrow. The “Disrupt” style presentation moves fast and delivers a cram-session of lessons into a handful of minutes.
