Andrée O'Donnell

I am a Catholic wife and mother of 2 teenagers. I homeschooled my children for the past 8 years and now I am working with my husband to run our Commercial Real Estate Brokerage. We have lived off and on in Centretown for the past 25 years and have been parishioners at Saint Patrick’s Basilica for the past 3 years.

The gifts that I can offer the PPC are administration, cooperation and service. Creating an organized environment is a skill I enjoy using and that hopefully will be of benefit to the council. I work best in a team environment where we collaborate together to come up with solutions that help our Parish and community. I want to be of service by helping with the needs of the other members so that they can have the time to use their gifts to their fullest.

I believe the priorities that are most important for the PPC is the building up of a caring community within our parish that in turn inspires our parishioners to reach out to those in need in our Centretown neighbourhood.
