Seasoned broadcaster and motivational speaker, Dan Carter, has played a significant role in Durham Region as a community leader, championing the cause for better education and opportunities for all.

Emerging from a background of immense personal challenge and tragedy, Carter’s walked the walk. Today, this inspirational role model tirelessly delivers his message to all Canadians… always strive to achieve your full potential. And then to pay-it-forward.

Carter’s steadfast commitment to making a difference has led to the establishment of a number of community initiatives, including the founding of The Hope Centre of Learning and the Day of Hope and Leadership signature event for community leaders.  Dan is especially proud of the Isobel Carter Youth Fund which provides educational bursaries for youth in Durham Region.

Most recently, Carter opened the Carter Centre for Media and Cultural Studies in a refurbished Simcoe Street building in downtown Oshawa, Ontario. 

Add to Carter’s list of accomplishments his inspirational book, It’s the Right Time Now, which chronicles his life’s story and his rise to success. Read it and you’ll understand why he’s one of our Region’s trailblazers.

My sister, Maureen, saved my life and always believed that I would do something great in my life. 

My mother, Isobel Carter, planted the seeds of hope and perseverance in me, and 

Martin Luther King, for the life he led.
