“very supportive to the community and community initiatives”

“It is my pleasure to be supporting Matt Cardwell this election for West Ward Councillor. I have known Matt and his family for many years. Matt is a keen young businessman that is very supportive to the community and community initiatives. The most recent community initiative was the helping to raise funds for the Boys and Girls Club fan. Matt’s business experience will be a great asset to council.”

“played an instrumental role…”

“The Boys and Girls Club of Durham is proud to count Matt Cardwell as one of our supporters. Matt played an instrumental role in helping our club to replace a van that had been vandalized beyond repair. He heard about our clubs need, and quickly went to work to arrange a fund-raising event on our behalf. He covered all of the basis and pulled off a successful evening which included a silent auction and raised close to $4,400 for our club and the children we support. The thing that was most amazing to us was that Matt was new to the Boys and Girls club “family” and yet he jumped in without hesitation and without fanfare to help us out when he heard about our hardship. Matt understands what making a difference in the community is all about.”

-Lisa McNee Baker, Executive Director Boys and Girls Club of Durham

“I confidently endorse Matt Cardwell for the position of West Ward Councillor in this year’s election. Matt owns two businesses in Whitby and takes great pride in creating sustainable local jobs. He is committed to helping small businesses by reducing red tape and keeping property taxes low. Matt has made it a priority to give back to the community through his support of local charities, organizations and not for profits. His campaign is all about “Putting Whitby First” and I believe that’s exactly what he will do.
