Annual report 2011

By Isabelle Privé

The year 2011 is dying and we're nearing 2012 and all its challenges.  Like everyone else, it's time for the annual report.  We've accomplished so much in 2011.

Team Kili-2012 was born and took shape. We had a vision: " Do things differently". That in turn governed our actions. We decided on fund-raising objectives. We created the "Kili Corner Shop", vowing to make everything ourselves. We had a gastronomical evening, a Casino, countless grocery packing sessions, we made muffins and chocolates. We found a way to function and to keep the books. (Thanks, Julie!)

We've signed our contracts and chosen ExPé as our guide. We've created partnerships with Organik and the office SAM programme for physical fitness. We've received a great deal of encouragement and support from our employer.

           We've created a bilingual blog. We've invented tools to visualize our objectives and chart our progress. All information is centralised through our e-mail address and our office Intranet site.

            We decided to be different by doing voluntary work ourselves instead of just giving money to worthy causes. Opération Enfant Soleil, l'Accueil Bonneau, La Grande Corvéé and l'UDA are just a few examples of our voluntary participation.

              We've put down our first deposit and our flight is reserved. Together, we've climbed 4 mountains: Monts Tremblant, Brassard, Éléphant and Nixon.

.

None of this was done by one person alone. Each member has contributed to these accomplishments and to the progress of the team on the road to our dream.

            WOW!  That's what we've accomplished in 2011!
