CBM Ireland appoints new CEO

CBM Ireland is pleased to announce the appointment of Ms Sarah O'Toole to the role of Chief Executive Officer.

Sarah brings with her considerable experience in both the non profit and corporate world. Prior to joining CBM, Sarah was Chief Operations Officer of the Soul of Haiti Foundation and spent two years in Haiti as Project Manager of their Brand Haiti project. She has also worked with organisations such as Trócaire, Special Olympics and Concern and held senior roles with Colliers International, ACCA Ireland and Willis Risk Services.
 
Sarah holds a Masters in International Strategic Marketing from DCU Business School and is a graduate of both the Waterford Institute of Technology and the Marketing Institute. She is PMP accredited by the Project Management Institute and is a former board member of Boardmatch Ireland.
 
On her appointment Sarah said, "I am honoured to be the new CEO for CBM Ireland. Our mission and commitment to improving the quality of life of people with disabilities and those at risk of disability, in low income regions of the world has never been more needed. We work closely with our partners in the field to provide medical services and social supports, in a sustainable manner.
 
Disability inclusive development is crucial to ensure the most vulnerable people in the poorest communities of the world are not left behind and CBM is working hard to advocate for people with disabilities in the preparation and implementation of the UN post-2015 Development Agenda.
 
Of course, our work is only made possible by the generosity of the Irish public who continue to support us despite the many economic challenges they themselves may be facing, and for this we are truly grateful."
