Welcome to the Canadian Office Team

Alumni Relations Coordinator, Jacqueline Silvester ‘08

Getting back involved with NJC has brought back lots of fond memories,
and I’m enjoying connecting with NJC alumni from every decade. Please reach out to me if you have any questions about the 60th Gala, either now or when tickets go on sale! We are still looking for Class Reps for 1975, 1978, 1986, 1995, 1999 and 2009, so let me know if you have questions about taking on this volunteer role for your class. Finally, I’ll encourage everyone to participate in our 60th
Contest (page 16). Who wouldn’t want to win a trip back to Neuch and tickets to our Après Neuch Gala?
60th Anniversary Partnership Coordinator, Andrika Boshyk ‘97

I cherish my friendships and connections made at NJC in ‘97 and have brought this passion into my role as Partnership Coordinator for NJC’s 60th. I invite you to discover how you can become involved with NJC’s 60th Anniversary Year as Patron Families and Corporate Partners for our signature 60th Gala. I encourage you to read our partnership package and learn how your gifts will make for a truly memorable celebration! Please know that I would be honoured to meet with you—
alumni and parents—to hear about your ideas for involvement,
and I encourage you to contact me directly to discuss tailored partnerships available for NJC’s 60th Anniversary year. I look forward to connecting with you in the coming months!
