Pharmacist wins leadership award
January 25, 2012 2 Comments
Naz Rayani, whose dedication to the community and to charitable causes earned him membership in the Order of Canada in 2006, has been named this year’s recipient of the Leadership Victoria Lifetime Achievement Award.
Rayani, a well-known pharmacist, has led the organization of the annual World Partnership Walk for many years. As a devout Ismaili Muslim, he has worked hard to bring together people of all faiths with frequent tours to Burnaby’s Ismaili Jamatkhana and Centre.
Rayani is once again involved in the community after recovering from a period of ill health in 2010, during which he had a stroke and underwent open-heart surgery. He was hospitalized for a number of months.
Rayani will receive his award Feb. 21 during a ceremony at the Fairmont Empress Hotel. Twentynine people are nominated in six categories for the eighth annual Leadership Victoria event.

Heartiest Congratulation to Naz about whom we have so much on the net. I am from Alberta but there are few individuals who may not have heard about your humanitarian activity. Keep up the good work. Canada is truly blessed with good and strong model like you
