20th Anniversary Award Ceremony and Board of Trustees Meeting

 

On October 26, CFSPI’s Board of Trustees (BOT) gathered from as far as Hawaii for an annual BOT meeting. Among other issues, the board discussed CFSPI’s thrusts and directions for its 2008-2010 strategic plan in which CFSPI aims to refine its programs for women and children and continue to develop and share innovative technologies and best practices for the benefit of those they serve.

 

The meeting was particularly special as members commemorated CFSPI’s 20 years in service by hosting a 20th Anniversary Award Ceremony

 
   
 

Patti Lyons

 

 

Three exceptional contributions by board members were recognized by, honoring them each with a 20th Anniversary Emerald Award. Chairperson Patti J. Lyons was commended for her vision and leadership, member Lynn Watanabe for her tenacity, perseverance and endless support, and member Atty. Betty Tabanda for sharing her sharp legal mind and expertise. 

Dra. Erlinda Cordero received a 20th Anniversary Platinum award for sharing her wisdom and expertise in project development and management over the years. Platinum awards were also given to seven staff members for their dedicated service to CFSPI and their commitment to the children and families of the Cordillera.  

Seven major donors of CFSPI were awarded with certificates of recognition for their financial support toward the betterment of CFPSI’s programs, and all awardees and members of the BOT received unique cultural and traditional gifts from the Philippine highlands including native carvings and special native weavings.

With sincere gratitude CFSPI would like to thank and acknowledge all our donors and supporters. Over the last twenty years you shared in our vision and made significant investments in the programs and services of Child and family Service Philippines. Without you, we would not be on the path to realizing a better future for children. Ending child abuse relies on each and every one of us, so thank you for taking action and thank you for making a difference in the lives of so many children, women and families.

We look forward to continuing our partnerships as we carry on our efforts to uplift our communities!
