Biography

Kristie Pearson is a supporter of many charitable organizations in Winnipeg. When she’s not busy raising 3 young kids, she’s bringing her knowledge and networking abilities to link people with time, talent or treasure with existing agencies who are working to better our community and world. She has Masters in Business Administration with a focus on Marketing. Pearson has spent over a decade working for companies like True North Sports & Entertainment and Manitoba Hydro developing and implementing marketing, communication and sponsorship strategies. Her focus is now in the philanthropic sector. She believes that people want to help others in need but often don’t know how. She also believes there are effective agencies in our community doing great work. She is working to bridge this gap by listening, learning, and lifting the voices of those who need a hand up — linking hope. Pearson is available to connect journalists with Indigenous women and Indigenous women-led organizations.
