My name is Garry Thind, and I’m seeking re-election as a Trustee with the Surrey School Board. I’ve lived in Surrey for 19 years, and my wife Nav and I have 3 beautiful children who attend McLeod Road Traditional Elementary School here. It has been my pleasure to serve the parents and students of Surrey as a Trustee for the last four years. I have
served as past President for the Rotary Club of Surrey, and I’m currently serving as a head of the BC region for Pingalwara Society of Ontario, a non-profit charity, where I have raised over 3.5 million dollars since 2002. With over 15 years of management experience, presently I’m self-employed as a full-time Realtor with Century21 Coastal Realty. I’m determined to fight for Surrey schools to receive the resources we need and deserve, and to ensure that they are run efficiently and effectively. I look forward to the opportunity to serve again.
