MONA'S PLATFORM

"I come from a very hard working farming family. My grandparents always taught me that working hard and providing for the family and community is the ultimate reward. Knowing that you are doing something every day that impacts peoples lives that you know and don't know. That's why when coming to Canada most of my spare time was dedicated to volunteering. I am extremely blessed to have had the time to give back to the community, and now on a bigger scale. Niagara Falls is the only home I know and I would be honoured to be your voice at City Hall"
