United Way:

Popping balloons, a lively auction,
great prizes, a large sum of money
in the 50/50 draw, craft fair

proceeds, and loads of enthusiasm all

played a key supporting role in the

College’s 2001 United Way campaign.

However, the real accolades go

to the many compassionate and
generous College employees (and
some students) who dug deeper
than ever before to help this year’s
United Way committee raise the
enormous sum of close to $25,000.
Four College employees came away
with amazing prizes. ESL instructor
Joan Acosta won a reserved parking
space; cashier Jeannie Bell-Irving
popped a balloon and won an
annual parking permit; CANASEAN
coordinator Erin Krieger won more
than $600 in the 50/50 draw, then
generously contributed $100 back
to the campaign; and English
instructor Melanie Fahlman-Reid
won a trip for two to Jasper.
Congratulations to all the winners!
