23rd Annual General Meeting

On Wednesday June 6, 2018. AHC held its 23rd Annual General Meeting, gathering our Board of Directors, members, staff, volunteers, and clients to review our achievements over the last year. AHC was excited to share its exponential growth in all areas including: expanding into an additional floor at our office location (10578 113 Street), adding new programs and expanding existing ones, increasing the program sites offered, increasing our funding, and continued growth in the number of clients and participants engaging with our organization.

Over the last fiscal year AHC was able to serve and engage over 10,000 clients and participants in over 30 programs and services. We opened our recently expanded and enhanced Resource Centre to better serve our community members. W engaged 291 volunteers and students who collectively contributed more that 20,000 hours of their time to serving the organization in a number of program areas, and worked along side over 150 partners, supporters, in addition to over 80 members.

Over the next year we will continue focusing our efforts on the consolidation of existing programs and services by adding required resources to better respond to the needs of our clients. With the ongoing support of our donors, partners, board, staff and volunteers, we are ready for the challenges and achievements ahead in the years to come!

Thanks for making this an awesome year!
