JFCY celebrates National Volunteer Week!

Thank you to JFCY's many volunteers including committee members, board members, admin support and, of course, the PLE TEAM.

JFCY would especially like to thank U of T law student LEORA JACKSON, a volunteer through Pro Bono Students Canada (PBSC).  Leora worked very closely with the PLE Team from September 2011 until April 2012.  She organized meetings, managed our group of fabulous volunteers, wrote the legal content for our blog posts and edited the Bullying Zine.

Leora's PBSC placement is now over. She will be working at Downtown Legal Services for the summer and then starting her second year of law school in September.

JFCY thanks Leora for her amazing work and fabulous contributions during the past eight months!

National Volunteer Week 2011

JFCY would like to mark National Volunteer Week 2011 by acknowledging its amazing and dedicated volunteers. In addition to its small full-time staff and various academic placement students from local high schools and universities, JFCY is fortunate to have a variety of youth and adult volunteers to help us fulfill our mandate, most notably in the area of community development and public legal education. JFCY has had hundreds of volunteers over the years.

JFCY would like to thank its many YOUTH volunteers who are currently active, including:

Youth Action Committee: Cindy, Fiona, Martina, Mei Ling, Patricia, Rene, Rina, Sally and Shannon.

Public Legal Education Committee: Jenny, Yasmin, Adiba, Alisha, Arif, Diana, Jasmine, Jennifer, Lucas, Terence, and Tracy.

These volunteers bring energy, effort and context to the work that JFCY does. 

THANK YOU!!!!!
