Zain Velji Awarded King Charles III Coronation Medal

We are thrilled to celebrate former YMCA Calgary Board Chair, Zain Velji, who has received a King Charles III Coronation Medal for his significant contributions to Calgary.

As a member of our Board of Directors for 10 years, Zain has supported YMCA Calgary with unwavering optimism and professionalism, bringing expertise from his background in political, business, and non-profit communications and marketing.  

Co-founder of Northweather, a company dedicated to advocacy marketing for community issues, Zain's professional endeavors mirror his personal ethos. "I believe volunteerism, giving to the community, and making a meaningful contribution doesn’t start at 5 p.m., when the workday is over. They are not separate, nor compartmentalized."
