OGA President’s Report May 2020
- May 14, 2020

As we navigate through these challenging times, being part of a caring, inclusive community is more important than ever.
All of our lives have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, in some respect. While times like these can be confusing and frightening, it allows us to put everything into perspective and to reassess our priorities.Â
In these times, I encourage everyone to remember and practice the Mercy values we learned in our school days. Simple acts of charity and kindness go a long way.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of our alumni working on the front line, in any capacity. The work you are doing now is more important than ever.
I have faith that our world will bounce back stronger from this, and I look forward to being able to resume our planned activities when it is safe to do so.
Gemma Varone, President (2009)
