Satwant had graciously invited a wonderful speaker: Dr. Marina Roma-March. 

A quick bio of her:

Dr. Marina Roma-March is a Filipino-Canadian. At the age of six Marina immigrated to Canada with her family. She grew up on the eastside of Vancouver and was fourteen before she returned to the Philippines. 

She has led and organized over 18 international eye care missions, most notably the VOSH recovery
project to Typhoon Haiyan two months after the devastation. Their international team served 8000 survivors of the Typhoon in twelve days. She helped to develop VOSH International Disaster Recovery Program and its protocol.

She is the recipient of the distinguished service award by Lions Club International and was named Optometrist of the Year by the British Columbia Association of Optometrist and a Maharlika Awardee. In 2014, Dr Roma-March received the VOSH International President’s Circle Award, recognizing her work in the Philippines following Typhoon Haiyan.

Look forward to everyone there.
