"It's always a win-win situation when you give back to your community," @zahrasays tells #WAMSOttawa luncheon, speaking about the pro-bono work her company Foundry Communications did for non-profits in the early days.

"I don't think I could've done what I've done if it weren't for Canada. I'm a proud Canadian," Canadian Ambassador to @UNICEF @zahrasays tells @MSOttawa #WAMSOttawa luncheon.

"All of us can handle anything," says @zahrasays at #WAMSOttawa luncheon. Puts up Bob Marley quote on screen - "You only know how strong you are when being strong is your only choice."

[MS Society, Ottawa @MSOttawa]

"I got told no a lot when I was younger. When I asked why, I was told 'because you're a girl,'" @zahrasays tells #WAMSOttawa luncheon. "My parents are the reason I'm successful today."

[MS Society, Ottawa @MSOttawa]

Advancements in MS research have allowed us to diagnose and treat patients earlier, says #WAMSOttawa impact speaker Lara Pilutti. Collaboration is both important and necessary to help #endMS.
