Catherine Huard
Co-founder & President
Catherine has forged an inspiring path, guided by commitment and service. She graduated from Collège Maisonneuve in 2003 as an administrative assistant, then expanded her expertise with a diploma in financial security advising in 2012—a profession she practiced diligently until 2018. Driven by a higher calling, she then devoted herself to humanitarian work with Jesus Ministries International, traveling across nine countries to connect with communities and spread hope.
In 2024, inspired by the vision of her mentor Ada, she founded JMI Action Compassion in Canada, an organization dedicated to humanitarian aid and active compassion. Catherine has always embodied selflessness with authenticity. Her passion, generosity, and deep desire to serve make her a woman whose impact leaves a lasting mark on everyone she meets.
Linda Rousseau
Vice-President
After 35 years dedicated to her work, Linda is now choosing to give even deeper meaning to her life: to serve, to love, and to make a positive impact on her surroundings, starting with her own country. Beneath her natural gentleness lies a remarkable strength—that of a heart entirely devoted to others.
Devoted to the well-being of our seniors, she also embodies the unconditional love of a mother who is always ready to support, encourage, and comfort. Quiet yet deeply generous, Linda doesn’t make noise… she makes a difference. Her presence inspires, touches everyone who cross her path.
