In the Fall of this year, Kevin Ainsworth, Senior Vice-President of Western Panel Operations for Ainsworth Lumber Co. Ltd. and Co-Chair of Fundraising for Family Services of Greater Vancouver contacted us and asked if we would like to be involved in assisting Family Services of Greater Vancouver. "Family Services of Greater Vancouver focuses on children and families in need, there is an extensive range of services that they provide" explained Kevin. "This is a Capital Campaign, Family Services has a number of locations throughout Vancouver where they provide assistance such as counseling and what they are going to try and do is centralize to one location to save expenses on leasing and just find other operating efficiencies. The Capital Campaign needs to raise $1.7 million; we've almost reached our goal and can't wait to get going." Kevin expressed to us that he was moved by all the services provided by the organization and the help and assistance that they had provided in the community. He further explained "There are a lot of people and families living below the poverty level right here in Vancouver, it's rewarding to help out where you can."

Colony and the Colony employees donated a total of $7500 to assist Kevin and Family Services of Greater Vancouver in their efforts to meet their goal. We were pleased to have been of some assistance to them both and wish them well in their ongoing endeavors in assisting others in need. You can contact Family Services at their website at www.fsgv.ca if you would like to also be involved in this very worthwhile cause.
