KUDOS to British Columbia


Sheila Pierce, provincial president of British Columbia,  revealed her heart when reporting her pride in the accomplishment of the members in BC.
"I am very proud of BC, DKG members. Although we are a small group we are commited and productive. Our recent survey showed that 97% of members had enjoyed Chapter meetings, activities, speakers and fellowship, and 87% are satisfied in the direction DKG is moving.
Members frequently comment on the support and encouragement they get from fellow members. We have excellent programs and speakers. We have provided scholarships, raised funds for local women and children's charities, supported the Canadian Hamambee Education Society which educates girls in Kenya and Tanzania,  and the Tlamacazapa project in Mexico which supports education of children and women's literacy as well as helath education projects. We have surveyed members and developed a Provincial Action Plan focussed on renewal and revitalization.We have had good participation and attendance at regional conferences and international conventions.

Our members have served on international committees and participate through social networking with DKG members internationally. We joined members in Washington State for a meeting in 2013 and they will join us at our spring conference in April 2014. One of our goals is to work toward more unity of purpose among Canada members through a new Canadian project.

We feel we are moving forward with our revitalizaion and renewal and have initiated 7 new members since September 2013."
