The Support the Blazer Campaign is a community movement that brings together individuals, businesses, and teams to raise funds and awareness for meaningful causes. For 30 days, members of the Good People Army fundraise, inspire others, and proudly wear the blazer as a symbol of leadership, generosity, and community. Together, we&#39;re proving that small acts of kindness can create a lasting impact. ❤️ Why We Do ItWe believe that when good people come together, incredible things happen.

2026 Support the Blazer Campaign

I am a senior paralegal in Pace Law Firm&rsquo;s Personal Injury group. We are a multidisciplinary family-oriented firm dealing with all aspects of the law, corporate, immigration, real estate, commercial law, criminal. You name it, we have it. Toronto has been home since 2000. I once planned on a career in general surgery, hoping to save lives one surgery at a time. In 2002 I found my place in law, since 2004 I have helped injured, people regain stability, access treatment, and plan for the future. That work showed me how quickly life can change and how vital community programs are.&nbsp; My 3 Whys:1. Nick, Nick and once again Nick. Who does not enjoy a good giggle from his post reels midday? We all do&hellip;and then came the cause. 2. Being part of the legal world really shows you how a person and their family&rsquo;s life can change in a second. You being to count your blessing and look at your life in reverse. What is that I&rsquo;m truly thankful for and what are things that I already have that make you happy as supposed what else do I need to get or what else has to happen for me to be happy. 3. And finally, my personal &ldquo;X-files&rdquo; like from that Alien show, the one that still shows ups as a nightmare from time to time. I personally had an accident as a child; I was just 4. I spent on and off 4 years in a hospital with 8 different surgeries. This is why this cause specifically resonates with me. I remember the pain, the lonely feelings, the beeping of monitors, training tubes, this tube that tube hanging from your body. Your nurses become your family, and I remember this one time when I had a meltdown, I was crying and my nurse put in the giant bandage helmet I had not my head 2 straws and said now you are a super hero and I turned to him saying, I do not want to be one, I just want my mommy. And with memory and a cause that I can totally related too, I&rsquo;m here today to support you.
