Message from Chris Ecklund

Chris EcklundFor years, I have advocated the use of volunteering and philanthropy to strengthen the city of Hamilton, improve its image, and keep alive the spirit of community pride.

As you go through my official site, you will learn more about my waterfall initiative, which rebranded Hamilton as the Waterfall Capital of the World, as well as past projects.

An Evening With Michael Douglas

On November 5, 2007, Mr. Ecklund and his staff attended an "Evening With Michael Douglas" at Carmen's. It was a fantastic evening out, and the proceeds of all auctions went to City Kidz. Mr. Ecklund even shelled out $3400 for a signed 'Wall Street' poster, all in the name of supporting the kids.
