Her efforts in raising as much money as possible for beneficiary Doors of Hope were rewarded when she was nominated as the Leading Agent of Change for the 2017 SheEO SleepOut. At a recent ceremony including The Philanthropic Collection representatives and her colleagues and peers, Harvey was presented with the Stop Sign Award in recognition of her contribution to the 2017 event and the difference she has made in the lives of the abandoned children with who Doors of Hope works.
Having participated in the 2016 sleepout, founder of Richmark Holdings Gavin Varejes immediately encouraged Harvey to enter. He says, “Tanya is an incredible force at Richmark, a dynamic and intelligent woman who accomplishes anything that she sets her mind to. I knew that she would do us proud at the sleepout and she has, having pulled out all the stops to become the leading fundraiser of the event. Well done, Tanya, we are so impressed!”
Both Varejes and Harvey have reiterated what an impact the sleepout experience has made on them. As Harvey notes, “As someone who has the opportunity to go out and make a difference in the lives of those who are less fortunate, this experience was a big reminder to constantly strive to make a difference. Thank you to Gavin Varejes and Richmark Holdings for the nomination and the support and thank you to The Philanthropic Collection for hosting this amazing and worthy event.”
