Dear Friend of UNA-Canada,
As Executive Director of the United Nations Association
in Canada I am constantly impressed with the calibre of all associated
with our organization – our Board members and staff, our members
and supporters, as well as partners and those we serve both across
the country and in the global south.
It has been a remarkable year at UNA-Canada. Your
support has given us the ability to provide grass roots engagement
and education on global citizenship, with a special focus on young
Canadians from coast to coast to coast, as well as to youth in our
targeted countries in the global south. At the same time we had
remarkable presence and success on the national – and international
– stage in engaging those like you: experts, leaders and citizens
in finding innovative solutions to challenges confronting communities,
states and people around the world.
This, in spite of a year of blows dealt by the economic
crisis, which has brought some severe constraints to our work. To
help us meet our commitments to children & youth here, and in the
poorest countries – to help us make a real difference to “we,
the peoples…” in your community – I want to let you know of
an important year-end Matching Challenge.
Whatever gift you can give
to UNA-Canada before the end of the year will be matched by an important
and generous donor. Will you help?
Warmest wishes for a wonderful holiday season,
...
Kate White
Executive Director
