Richard Widdifield

Rich has provided business owners, hockey professionals and families with whom he works an opportunity to achieve financial security, reduce taxes, and guidance with their charitable giving objectives. In Rich's own words his primary objective is, "Helping families take control of the areas of their lives that truly matter to them". This includes specific tools and strategies to multiply their impact and leave a lasting legacy for those causes that are deeply meaningful to them.

As an active member of the community, Rich has volunteered for the Union Gospel Mission, the Vancouver Marathon, and Power To Be, the latter a charity dedicated to empowering, through nature based adventures, those members of our society living with a barrier or disability. Rich and his wife, Andrea, also believe strongly in giving back, have set up their own family foundation and spearheading fundraisers to support charities within their community. Richard is also an active member of the Canadian Association of Gift Planners and a sought after public speaker across the country.

Rich and Andrea reside in Tsawwassen with their two rescue dogs, Palmer and Cali. Rich is a member of the Beach Grove Golf Club and, when not attempting to improve his handicap, also plays hockey, curls and has run multiple marathons including New York, Chicago, and Boston. Rich and Andrea love learning about wine (and wine tasting!) and travelling, particularly to London, England, to visit their daughter, Kaela.
