This month in our Leadership in Focus series we feature Monica Patten, president and chief executive officer of Community Foundations of Canada. When she took the helm of CFC in 1992, the organization had 28 members. Since then, her unique leadership, expertise and vision have helped CFC grow exponentially. Now it oversees more than 145 community foundations across the country and holds $2 billion in assets. Thanks to this passionate leader, Community Foundations of Canada has earned a national and international reputation for innovation and generosity. And in May 2005, Monica received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Lawson Foundation in recognition of her extraordinary accomplishments and leadership."
