Dianna Y. Jiang

As the founder of Gifted People Services, I was honoured to present a speech at York Education’s 2026 Volunteer Appreciation Awards. It was a special opportunity to share my own perspective on the value of community service and to recognize the volunteers whose time, care, and dedication make a meaningful difference. Being part of an evening dedicated to celebrating these individuals was both inspiring and deeply meaningful to me.

On July 18, I was honoured to participate in the 4th Anniversary Gala of 新动力企业家商会 (New Power Entrepreneurs Chamber of Commerce). The celebration brought together business leaders and community members to recognize entrepreneurship, strengthen partnerships, and celebrate the shared commitment to supporting and uplifting our communities.

The 2026 Sing for Autism Charity Singing Fundraiser brought together performers, sponsors, volunteers, and families in a heartfelt community effort to support children with autism through musical performances from people of all ages. Founded and led by Dianna Jiang, Gifted People Services organized the event to raise funds for early intervention services, helping children access critical support while waiting for government funding. 

Attending the Community BBQ hosted by Logan Kanapathi was a wonderful opportunity to connect with local families, community members, and partners. Representing Gifted People Services through our community booth allowed us to share our mission, build new relationships, and strengthen our presence within the community we proudly serve.

The Donor's Night, held on June 5, 2026, at Xinflix Media, was a meaningful evening dedicated to thanking the sponsors, partners, and supporters who have helped make our mission possible. Celebrating our shared achievements together was a reminder that every act of generosity has made a lasting difference in the lives of the families we serve.

I attended the 2026 Ontario Budget Consultation Seminar and found it very meaningful. During the discussion, I shared my hope that the government can provide more support and benefits for children with special needs and people with disabilities. I also expressed the importance of increasing funding for Gifted People Service, so we can continue to offer high-quality programs and help more families in need.
