Poverty Awareness in York Region

Aug 2009 - PACC volunteers received federal recognition through volunteers awards. PACC decided to hand them out while sponsoring a neighbourhood BBQ that is home to some PACCers. The day was a great success with many families participating and the kids getting not only a full belly but some cool prizes too as well as some entertainment courtesy of Spotlight Theatre School!!

Above PACC's Ray, also a volunteer's award winner, engages MP Lois Brown who was on hand to hand out the Fed awards. The Mike Thornhill memorial youth award - a $1,000 education scholarship was also handed out by PACC's Tom Pearson at the event.
