In over 30 years of working in media, I have never met someone who is so passionate about the company he works for and the enthusiasm he puts into his job. He is a tireless worker who is always thinking about ways to better the company he works for and make every single event he is responsible a success. Brian is organized and attentive to every detail and his creative writer at CJOB loves working with him and finds him so receptive to themes and ideas for the radio ads. Brian is dependable, reliable, honest and courteous. He would be a welcome addition to your team. I’m happy to provide further information if required.

FAX: 2U4-~7 5 -Jun· EM AIL: mbia@mIS. n e r w'vvw.mbia.ca October 20, 2008 To Whom It May Concern ; It is my pleasure to provide this reference letter for Brian Campbell. Mr. Campbell was employed with the Manitoba Brain Injury Association (MBIA) between April 2007 and October 2008 in a contract position as Events Coordinator. My remarks in this letter are based on his performance during his employment with us. In the position of Events Coordinator Brian was responsible for organizing various fundraising events for our organization. Specifically, Mr. Campbell was responsible for overseeing established events as well as developing new fundraisers. He had to recruit committee members, provide direction to volunteers regarding the event, and ensure that everything went smoothly on the actual day. Brian successfully performed all of the above responsibilities. The events he organized raised more money through sponsorships than previous events. He also critically reviewed each event to determine what areas could be improved for events. Committee members enjoyed Brian's collaborative style of leadership. Not only could Brian work independently he was also an excellent team player. Staff knew they could count on Brian to lend an extra hand. He did not pick what or where he would help; he simply assisted members wherever it was needed. Before closing, I must highlight Brian's character. I am most struck by his honest character and his strong sense of accountability. He was punctual and followed through on his tasks. Sincerely, I.:J \~~JL~ David Sullivan Executive Director TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: It is with pleasure that I can provide a letter of reference for Brian Campbell. Brian was hired on a half-time basis for a nine-month term position, having gained valuable experience through the Creative Communications Program as well as on his three-week work placement at L’Arche. Funded by a grant, Brian started in October 2006 to plan and co-ordinate our 3rd annual Walk With L’Arche and completed his nine-month term the end of June 2007. During this time with planned activities in hand, Brian coordinated and took on responsibility for most facets of the event as well as assisted me in other activities as required. Brian quickly familiarized himself with L’Arche’s philosophy and was always welcoming and considerate towards others. Brian willingly and enthusiastically took on major areas of responsibility, which involved overseeing committee and volunteer work, media, marketing,, preparing promotional materials and website, obtaining prize sponsors, program/entertainment development, ensuring French translation, budget monitoring, ongoing communications, thank you’s and an event evaluation. Brian proved himself to be a skilful writer with a good eye for design. He also has excellent computer and research skills. He is thoughtful, compassionate, trust worthy and can multi- task in a busy environment while maintaining a positive and supportive attitude. He was always punctual. Brian is a hard-worker and proved himself dependable in meeting deadlines and working after hours and weekends when required. Brian is very much a team player putting forward a friendly and cheerful face. He is also a relationship builder and I found him resourceful in obtaining information through previous contacts and website research. Brian has many
