100 Mile House Free Press: a true community paper

Supporting South Cariboo every week, 52 weeks a year

Dear Chris, Ken and Free Press staff:

The Free Press continues to make a positive difference each day to the lives of children, youth and families in the South Cariboo.

It is with great appreciation and thanks that I write this letter of recognition to Chris Nickless, Ken Alexander and all of the staff at the 100 Mile House Free Press for their caring support of our South Cariboo community.

Chris is supportive in many ways – helping us to bring projects to fruition, such as the South Cariboo Children Services Directory, and promoting the need for food Security during the summer months.

As soon as the ad appeared in the paper, we received many donations of fresh fruit and vegetables, which were so appreciated by families in need.

Ken is always keeping up-to-date on all of the initiatives in the South Cariboo and ensuring these events are well publicized and supported by our community.

Carole Rooney and Gavin Crites and others are present at many events showcasing our pride in our community and the resiliency of our families.

In addition, Ken is always open to publishing educational information for parents, children and youth to help them to be healthier and happier.

It is a great pleasure to work with all of you supporting our mutual goals of healthy families and healthy communities.

Thank you from all of us – CFEC clients, staff, management and board.
