Families of the World: Go on a fantastic journey to France
This past year 2010-2011 kept pace with our mission of Peace Through Understanding by meeting and learning about people from more than fifteen countries and regions featuring diplomats, artists and performers and panelists and other presenters from our own community with origins and ties to places around the world. We introduced them to the entire age spectrum of our community, from the grade school to high school and college level of students and to adults of all ages.
Our Board of Directors and Committees worked extremely hard and well to maintain quality activities, increase our communication efforts and sustain our membership rolls despite challenging economic times that affect both financial and human resources.
We broke new ground by adopting Facebook and Twitter as additional means of communicating with our members and the community beyond our Internet Website. In keeping with the times, we have reduced our dependency on postal messages and ask that members and interested folks sign up for our periodic e-mail alert and information messages.
Our finances have been well managed thanks to some very generous membership support through the Pacesetter program and other voluntary donations. We are also indebted to the State of Delaware for its support in helping us bring a global perspective to the State. Membership levels continue to be a struggle, particularly in maintaining the personal energy and skills to support the high level of activity on a chiefly volunteer basis.
We hope to play a vital part in international awareness in our community. We have been fortunate to have been associated with local organizations and groups who share the importance of this effort: Cokesbury Village of Hockessin, University of Delaware English Language Institute, Widener University Law School, Chesapeake Bay Area Girls Scouts, Arden Media and World Trade Center of Delaware.
The Chapter is indebted to its Board Members, Committee chairs and participants, its Partners in our local area and to the community at large for their support.
