Local heros easy to find

yy" don’t need to look far to find a local hero. They are family members, colleagues, students and community members who take the time to do extraordinary little things.

Capilano College has its own lot of heros and I would like to take this opportunity to thank, on behalf of the 1997 Capilano College United Way Committee, everyone who has contributed so far to this year’s United Way campaign. The local hero tree, borrowed from the Open House horticulture display in the Birch building atrium, raised $265. Money is still coming in from campaign events and through payroll pledges. If you haven’t already done so, please take the time to made a pledge or donation. Payroll pledges must be made by November 20. For more information, contact a member of the United Way committee: Lynne Hamilton, Wendy Lynn and Greg Lee.
