Hello, I was walking yesterday when a nice guy smiled at me and asked me to give him a few minutes to talk to me about the great cause he is supporting.
Gabriel was kind, nice, and didn’t twist anybody’s arms. I was able to see that he had a heart for what he was doing. And it was such a pleasure to see people working so hard to help kids. Bravo Gabriel. Amina.

“I wanted to take a moment to send my kudos to a young man who came knocking at my door a few nights ago. His name is Rob Brosi. Rob presented himself as a neat and tidy, well dressed young man. His passion and enthusiasm for his work and the work he represents were very apparent. There was nothing pushy or annoying about him... that has been my typical experience of someone soliciting at my door. Rob was pleasant, and was able to advocate on behalf of Plan Canada for those Plan represents. His compassion and ability to share appropriately his own life experience were important parts of him being able to ‘close the sale’ with me and my children. Rob was not only polite and articulate with me, but also when speaking with his colleague in Vancouver to confirm our support for a child in Haiti. He demonstrated joy and professionalism. He came across as an authentic, caring person. He was a wonderful example to my 3 children of what and informed, polite worker can be and can accomplish. As a marketing firm, I am quite certain you hear negative feedback often. I am fortunate to be able to share positive words with you. I wish Rob every good success as he continues to share his wisdom, enthusiasm and joy in whatever role life has in hold for him. As an employer, you have hired a gem. I appreciate this opportunity to express my kudos about your employee, Rob Brosi.

Sincerely,
Debbie
Bradford, ON.”
