The Cariboo Family Enrichment Centre (CFEC) held its annual general meeting and Volunteer and Donor Appreciation Luncheon on June 13.
CFEC executive director Lisa De Paoli says the AGM was a great opportunity to share the financial status of the organization with the community, and all of its achievements during the past year, as well as its plans for 2012/13.
The luncheon also provided the opportunity to recognize the years of service of each of the staff and give “our heartfelt thanks to our volunteers, donors and sponsors.”
CFEC increased the society’s numbers with 13 new members, nine lifetime members and five new two-year members.
De Paoli says one of the big initiatives put together this year was the South Cariboo Children's Services Directory that increases awareness for parents and service providers about the wealth of child support services in the area.
She notes the CFEC received the award because it met or exceeded all of the Council of Accreditation standards and was recognized for the best practice and innovative initiatives.
"We are very proud to have achieved our third consecutive Council on Accreditation Four-Year Award."
