Closing Keynote Session
An international keynote speaker Alvin Law tells stories about growing up without arms, learning to use his feet for hands, demonstrating that resilience is born from struggle, not from a pain-free existence. He believes that no matter what you’re up against, you can still live a life filled with gratitude and hope. Law’s uniquely customized presentations are designed to empower organizations and their people to turn obstacles into possibilities. To remind everyone that success begins with people, their strengths and weaknesses, and how together, we can accomplish anything. This unforgettable, life changing experience will reawaken your belief in yourself and others. In addition to being a professional speaker, Law is a trained broadcaster, fundraiser, award-winning musician and bestselling author. He has earned the designation of Certified Speaking Professional (CSP). In 2009, he was inducted into the Canadian Association of Speakers (CAPS) Hall of Fame and in 2018 The Canadian Disability Hall of Fame welcomed him for his significant role in advocacy for people with special needs. Law has appeared on countless telethons and media features, and has been the subject of two award-winning television documentaries. Since 1976 Alvin has played a direct role in raising over $200 million dollars for charity.
