OUR PEOPLE
All together, we're making it matter.
Make it Matter, founded in 2017, is run by its Executive Director, Deborah Athanasopoulos, and her founding team. The founding team is composed of Joanna Colida, Catherine Margonis, Emma Mekies, Alessia Fent-Roter, Gabriella Martignetti & Brianna Del Corpo. This founding team came together as they noticed a significant need for inclusive education opportunities amongst neurodiverse children and strive to make services easily accessible to their families and other children in the greater Montreal area.
