“I am honoured to have been given the opportunity to lead the Children’s Rehabilitation Foundation,” said Kidd-Hantscher. “Children and health are my passions. I am excited to build on the exceptional foundation that exists and advance the organization to help improve the lives of as many children as possible.”

A born and raised Manitoban and mother of three, Kidd-Hantscher joins the Foundation after spending the past six years as the Director of Marketing & Communications for CancerCare Manitoba Foundation. Prior to this, she worked for 23 years with Centra Gas and Manitoba Hydro in a variety of positions. She has a communications undergraduate degree and a master’s in public administration.

“Jane is an accomplished leader with a diverse background,” says Peter Garagan, Chair of Children’s Rehabilitation Foundation’s Board of Directors. “She is known for her collaborative approach and strong work ethic.
