Jennifer Botterill is an incredibly accomplished and dynamic speaker. No matter the audience, she is able to connect with listeners on a profoundly personal level by sharing personal stories, humourous moments and inspirational lessons she’s learned throughout her own journey. She has spoken before tens of thousands of young people from the We Day stage encouraging them to unleash their talents and help change the world, and at Gala dinners before Free The Children’s biggest stakeholders and corporate partners.
