SVP Calgary is excited to share the news that Andy & Krystyna Williamson were awarded 2009 SVPI Paul Shoemaker Leadership Award - at this year's Social Venture Partners International conference in Dallas.  From the nomination:

Andy and Krystyna Williamson are a power couple of Social Venture Partners. She chaired Calgary; he represents Canada. Both in theory and in practice, they are dedicated to engaged philanthropy and to the SVP Model. She keeps him on his toes with theoretical curve balls that he’ll defend.

Their involvement with investees, attendance at conferences and events, and dedication to SVP Calgary make them a dynamic duo. More importantly, they are passing the value of philanthropy to their colleagues, peers, and children.

The award honors a Partner, from throughout the entire SVP Network, who has consistantly demonstrated commitment to strengthening the SVP network.  In its sixth year, this is the first time the Paul Shoemaker Award has been given to a couple demonstrating their commitment to engaged philanthropy. 

SVP is truly a family affair for the Williamson's. We are so proud to have this philanthropic family in Calgary!
