Our grand finale retirement prank: a boardroom full of Jim’s!

Thanks for the laughs, Jim.
Today is National Indigenous Peoples Day.
 
We celebrate the diverse cultures, histories, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples.
 
Let’s continue learning and reflecting together
Happy Father’s Day 💙
 
Your love and guidance help build stronger communities.
Today, United Way Peterborough & District is announcing an important leadership transition.

As Jim Russell prepares to retire after nearly 15 years as Chief Executive Officer, we extend our deepest gratitude for his leadership, dedication, and commitment to building a stronger community. Jim's impact on this organization and the people we serve will be felt for years to come.

At the same time, we are pleased to welcome Jason Seguya as our next Chief Executive Officer, effective July 6, 2026. Jason brings experience leading mission-driven organizations and a strong commitment to collaboration, community engagement, and positive social impact.

As we look ahead to our 85th year of serving Peterborough & County, we are excited for the future and confident in the leadership that will guide us into this next chapter.

Please join us in thanking Jim for his years of service and welcoming Jason to the United Way movement.

June is National Indigenous History Month.
 
We honour First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples: their histories, cultures, and ongoing leadership.
