Donate to Support Andrea Galvan for Ontario City Council District 4, 2024

My name is Andrea Galván and I am running to be the first Latina on the Ontario City Council. I am a community activist with strong Ontario roots. I grew up downtown where I used to walk to the Ontario City Library with my mom sparking a life long love of learning.

I was the first person in my family to go to college and earned my Masters in Violence, Terrorism and Security in Belfast, Northern Ireland at 21. I went on to work in security threat analysis fields, tech, disaster response and recovery, real estate development on mixed-use walkable, rollable communities, and as a senior project manager at federally designated comprehensive cancer center.

Throughout my career I have worked on complex issues that require creative solutions and a deep understanding of how to build broad coalitions. I understand we need to not only invest in physical infrastructure, but critically to start imagining and investing in our community by building parks, safer streets, and affordable housing that will create a resilient, dynamic, safe community that is ready for the challenges our City faces.

Working families deserve a fair shot and the economy needs to work for our community. I am running to serve as a voice for Ontario residents that have gone underrepresented for too long. I am ready to fight for my community and to keep planting the seeds for a brighter future.
