Diana Train

 Co-Chair

Diana has been on the COH board for 4 years now and is excited to come on as co-chair. One of Diana’s passions in life is connecting with her community and its members. After graduating with 2 Hospitality Degrees from Fanshawe College, Diana entered into the busy but rewarding life of Restaurant Management. Looking for a change, Diana worked at the Downtown Guelph Business Association, and gained the skills she needed to make a career change. She is pleased to be the Facility & Event Manager at Innovation Guelph for 5 years now. Diana helps with day to day operations, onboarding & training and plans all Innovation Guelph events. She was also nominated in 2022 as The Guelph Chamber of Commerce Young Professional of Year Award.

Danielle Kuepfer

Co- Chair 

Dani joined Community of Hearts in 2021 after attending several fundraisers and seeing the wonderful work that COH does in our community. She brings to the Board her experience in marketing & communications, a passion for fundraising & community relationships, and a fresh set of eyes! An avid Downtown-ite, you’ll find her at the farmer’s market, exploring the city on foot, or planning fundraising events with other great organizations in the Royal City.
