Tell us your Story!

Just a quick note....we are busy here at FAME working with film editor, Andrew Brown of Digi-Realm (he's the wonderful volunteer who helped us put together our divas clip), on developing a 4 minute reel on who FAME is and how we work with families. It's an important project for us because it will enable us to reach out to the community and show them first hand who we are what what we do and what a difference we make for families all across the GTA.

It is our goal to "premiere" our film clip at the upcoming spring event "simply divas" on Sunday, May 31st at the Berkeley Church Event Venue. After that the film clip will become a part of outreach materials and tools to educate the public and help us to develop new partnerships and supporters throughout the community.

We need you! We need to hear your voice! We need to hear your story and we are looking for families and individuals to share what role FAME has played in their lives and in the lives of their families. Help us to share with the community this story. It's an important project and what you have to say needs to be heard.

If you are interested in participating in this amazing little project then please contact Michelle Bake, Director of Marketing & Community Development here at the FAME offices at (416) 207-5032 ext. 25 or through her email at michelleb@fameforfamilies.com

We look forward to hearing from you.

It's a new look newsletter....

Just a quick heads up to our family, friends, members, associates....
For the first time ever we've decided to print our newsletter in colour! You'll also notice a bit of an expanded newsletter as well. For the past year we've struggled with different ideas of how to improve this publication and e-zine version of it. The newsletter is a popular item with our families and its important for us to remember that even while the world goes "viral" that many families and friends enjoy getting that newsletter from us in their mailboxes. So keep an eye out, the newsletter is days away from getting tossed into the mailbox. Have a look. Give us your feedback. What you think is important to us. For us, at the end of the day, it is all about our families.

Stay warm this frosty February morning!
