Captain Nichola Goddard Leadership Series

About the Captain Nichola Goddard Leadership Series

True Patriot Love hosted three separate receptions for the True Patriot Love Captain Nichola Goddard Leadership Series in Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary to honour women in the Canadian Armed Forces. Bringing together military members, business leaders and community partners, this leadership series provides insight and generates inspiring discussion surrounding the unique experiences of women who serve. Building on the success of the inaugural 2018 reception in Toronto, the events included a panel of women from the military community discussing how their military careers have shaped them as leaders. True Patriot Love is grateful to Bennett Jones for being the Presenting Sponsor for all three receptions.

With a goal of raising upwards of $100,000 collectively for the Captain Nichola Goddard Fund, this year’s Goddard Leadership Series surpassed its fundraising goal raising almost $130,000. Thank you to everyone who made these events possible.

Through the Captain Nichola Goddard Fund, True Patriot Love provides national funding to directly benefit community programs that support servicewomen, Veteran women, and their families. The Fund was established in memory of Captain Nichola Goddard, the first female Canadian soldier to die in a combat role. 

“We started the Captain Goddard Fund to celebrate and serve strong women like Nichola who have the courage to never take no for an answer. They are the servicewomen, female Veterans, and their families, who protect the values integral to Canada and stand on guard for those less fortunate around the world.”

Katherine Rusk, Sister of Captain Nichola Goddard
