Rockwell Collins Canada sponsors Earth Day Ottawa

Isabel Bouchard

Rockwell Collins Canada was honored at Earth Day Ottawa’s most recent Solar Sprint event for awarding the environmental organization with a Green Communities Program grant, which is to be used toward environmental awareness events. Solar Sprint is a contest where teams of students in grade 6 and above compete using solar-powered cars made from a kit.

Isabel Bouchard, a senior accounting coordinator at Rockwell Collins Canada, has been an integral part of Earth Day Ottawa for the past year and helped plan the Solar Sprint event.

As one of six board members and Earth Day Ottawa’s accountant, Bouchard plays an important role keeping the non-profit organization’s finances in order.

"I got involved in Earth Day because I’m an environmentalist, and accounting and bookkeeping is what I do professionally," said Bouchard. "It seemed like a natural fit."

Elaine Gibson, Earth Day Ottawa coordinator, agrees. "Isabel ‘walks the talk’ with a truly environmental lifestyle, as her colleagues can confirm," said Gibson. "With Isabel’s attention to detail, we can be sure any Rockwell Collins contribution to Earth Day Ottawa will be well spent."

Earth Day Ottawa aims to increase the profile of the environment in the Ottawa-Carleton region by hosting Earth Week events, promoting contests to raise environmental awareness among youth, and providing an information exchange for everyone interested in promoting environmental protection.
