MEMBERSHIP ENGAGEMENT

AMY GIROUX
​“I was inspired to build an Optimist Club in my community because I wanted to make a difference locally, gain meaningful friendships, and bring more positivity into my family’s life. I live on a farm just outside Okotoks, Alberta with my husband and two kids. From the start, my goal was to create a space where people could connect, build friendships and support one another, and of course share a sense of optimism. Over the years, leading my club has become a deeply rewarding experience, allowing me to empower others and be a positive force in the community, which I’m proud my kids can be apart of. They’re also are members of their own Junior Optimist club. 

As a member of the Optimist International marketing committee, I’m excited to further develop my social media skills to enhance our outreach. I believe social platforms are a powerful way to spread positivity and engage a wider audience with our mission.
​Having led my club for several years and served on the OI Membership Engagement Committee—where I helped develop the CARE program—I know I’m a strong candidate for the role of Membership Engagement Chair. My passion for building community, along with my hands-on experience, puts me in a great position to connect with members and boost engagement across the board.”
