Jennifer Sondergaard has been an active volunteer in the National Capital Region since she moved to the area in 1999. With more than 100 hours of yearly community service, Jennifer has lent her time to many local non-profits. Her community involvement began with United Way 20 years ago and has evolved tremendously since then.
Jennifer’s passion for empowering women and volunteering within the community has led to being involved in many leadership roles. She is currently serving as a board member for the Canadian Resident Matching Service, the Ottawa Community Loan Fund Organization, and the Ingenium Foundation. Through these organizations, Jennifer has created a direct impact through fundraising events, including raising more than $250,000 for the Ingenium Foundation.
This foundation facilitates opportunities for people to experience and learn from the Agriculture and Food, Science and Technology, and Aviation and Space museums—regardless of their background, education, location, physical, cognitive and financial abilities.
