By bevdunlay, on December 21st, 2009  On December 17, 2009, Angela Clarke accepted a donation from U.A. Local 463 Benefit Plans Trust Fund in Bowmanville. Their members donate a percentage per hour earned to a charitable trust fund. The Board of Trustees decide where the money will be donated. Their generous gift of $4700.00 to our organization will be used to update the generator and purchase a much needed washer and dryer for our Warkworth Community Home. This donation will benefit both the people who live in this home and their staff who provide support to the people who live there too. Thanks again, your generosity is greatly appreciated!

This morning Kolton Kloosterman, along with his little brother, and parents stopped by Community Living in Campbellford. It was a special visit that Kolton was making. His 6th birthday is Dec 25, Christmas Day and he held his birthday party this past weekend. He invited 25 friends and family to celebrate with him. They had a great time bowling and enoying the party. The special part of the party was Kolton’s idea…the invitations he sent out requested the people attending his party to purchase gifts for donating to the toy drive in lieu of buying birthday presents for him. As you can see from the pictures, Kolton’s donation filled Santa’s Sleigh. Thank you so much Kolton, you will make Christmas morning a happy one for many children this year. Everyone here at Community Living Campbellford/Brighton wish you and your family a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy 6th Birthday.

NIAGARA FALLS – Jason Rae of Campbellford, the first self-advocate to be elected president of a local Community Living association board in Ontario, is the 2004 recipient of the James Montgomerie Honour Award.
Jason received a standing ovation when he was presented with the award last night at the opening session of the 51st Conference and Annual General Meeting of Community Living Ontario. The award is presented annually to a self-advocate who has demonstrated a strong commitment to promoting inclusion and equality of people identified as having an intellectual disability.
“I’d like to thank all the self-advocates I’ve met who have inspired me,” said Jason of Community Living Campbellford-Brighton, in accepting the award.

At the annual general meeting of Community Living Campbellford/Brighton, Thursday (June 26) Jason, 28, proved his schoolmates wrong and made history.
He became the first Self-Advocate in Ontario, and possibly Canada, to be elected president of a federated agency.
To tumultuous applause from more than 80 people, outgoing president Chris Park announced Jason’s election, describing it as a historic event.
