UFV looks for award nominees

Nominate someone for the annual Bettu Urquhart community service award

Do you know an individual or a group who has made the Fraser Valley a better place to live? Those people who make everyday contributions to their community but may not be recognized?

Consider nominating them for the Betty Urquhart annual community service award.

Betty Urquhart was one of the first employees of Fraser Valley College (now UFV) and believed strongly in the values volunteering and giving back to the community.

While Betty passed away in 1995, UFV keeps her memory alive by honouring a person or group who exemplifies her commitment to life-long learning and community.

Past winners include Mission resident Tara Scheirer for her work organizing a temporary cold weather homeless shelter.

If you’d like to nominate someone download a form at www.ufv.ca or contact Lori Ann Waites at 1-888-504-7441 (local 4521) or by e-mail at loriann.waites@ufv.ca. The deadline is March 16.
