Langley’s You’ve Gotta Have Friends organization is preparing to host its fourth annual Community Builder Awards. However, before they can do that, they need to hear from the community.
From now until Nov. 17, YGHF is accepting nominations for the event which recognizes and celebrates individuals and organizations that help make the Langleys a welcoming and inclusive community.
Community members are invited to share a story about how the person or organization fits the following criteria:
• Demonstrates and inspires inclusion
• Builds relationships
• Contributes to the Langley community in a meaningful way
Nomination forms are available at yghf@telus.net or they may be picked up at the office at 20510 Fraser Hwy. (McBurney Plaza).
Deadline for Nominations is Nov. 17 and the awards ceremony will be held on Dec. 5.
