28th Annual General Meeting and Open House

Marking a year of considerable growth, AHC held its 28th Annual General Meeting alongside an Open House on Wednesday, June 14, 2022. The events drew in more than 80 participants who had the opportunity to get the most up to date information on our diverse programs and services before hearing highlights of the past year and casting their votes on our organizational growth. For those that weren't able to attend, or would like to review our the print versions of the 2022-2023 Annual Report, this document can be accessed via our publications page.

In the 2022-2023 fiscal year, AHC provided support to more than 18,000 individuals, including families, children, and communities of various backgrounds. This could not be done without the leadership and commitment of our dedicated staff and network of 200+ volunteers.

The past year also saw the development of number of special initiatives and new programs including specialized supports for Ukrainian evacuees, acting as a donation centre for the earthquakes in Syria and Turkey, the wrapping up of the P.A.S.S. Program by sharing the related research with policy makers at all levels of government, and the development of the STEP Project which will aid female entrepreneurs in business finance management.

We are thankful to our funders, partners and stakeholders for their continued support and guidance in making 2022-2023 a successful year for us. With the ongoing support and insight of these valuable parties we will only be able to address greater challenges to peoples prosperity in society and ultimately create stronger, healthier communities.
