Dear Community Members,
.
I hope you had a great Passover.
.
We look forward to seeing you at the Kavod Evening on May 18, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. at Congregation Shaarey Zedek, 561 Wellington Crescent.

We are happy to welcome to the Federation Family, Regina Teplitsky as our new Campaign Manager.

The Community Planning Committee is pleased to announce the launch of a new broad based community planning process. The first step is to embark on a broad based consultation process to hear the voices of community members, culminating in a planning day next winter, a prelude to action planning for the long term. Carol Duboff, Chair, is excited to get started. “It’s timely to listen to the community and factor the diversity of views that our community enjoys into the actions of our leaders and organizations for the next ten years.”
.
Every voice counts and every member of the Jewish community is invited to: 
Answer a short survey 
Attend a Community Conversation 
Volunteer for an action planning task force
.
Contact Faye Rosenberg-Cohen for more information.

Our heart goes out to the community of Fort McMurray affected by the devastating wildfires. Those wishing to, may donate online.

Canada’s next census is currently being conducted. Census packages have been delivered to households across Canada, providing residents with the information they need to complete their questionnaire online or on paper. Completed questionnaires will provide valuable information that will be used by all levels of government to make decisions about your neighbourhood and community. Information obtained through the census is needed to plan services such as child care, schooling, family services, housing, public transportation and skills training for employment. Complete your census online.
