Celebrating our YMCA City Builders: Martine M. Irman

05 June 2018 - by YMCA of Greater Toronto
YMCA City Builders are philanthropic leaders who have generously given 1 million dollars or more to date to the YMCA of Greater Toronto. On June 5, 2018, we proudly honoured Martine M. Irman as she was inducted into our growing circle of esteemed YMCA City Builders. Read their 2018 induction citation here to learn about the incredible impact she is making possible.

Martine Irman first got her start with the Y by taking swim lessons, eventually becoming a lifeguard at the YMCA of Montreal. While building a successful career in finance, Martine has remained equally dedicated to mentoring young women professionally and supporting our community. She has lent her name and continuously grown her philanthropic contributions to our Strong Start, Great Future Capital Campaign since first joining as a Cabinet member in 2011, a year after joining our Board of Directors.

Our gratitude for this incredible YMCA City Builder is profound: Under her exceptional leadership as immediate Past Chair of our Campaign Cabinet, Martine has helped guide the direction of our fundraising efforts. A true champion of the communities she’s been serving for decades, she provides unwavering leadership and strategic support as YMCA of Greater Toronto’s current Board Chair. She continues to give both her time and treasure in support of young people, and believes that everyone should be given opportunities to realize their full potential. The impact of Martine’s partnership with our YMCA will be felt for decades to come.
