Annie Wang was a respected member of District 96. Annie's dedication to mentoring and youth empowerment was unparalleled. She sponsored new clubs and mentored countless members, leaving an indelible mark on our community.
Annie's passion for public speaking led her to spearhead the creation of three Gavel Clubs in Vancouver, ensuring that young people had the opportunity to develop their communication skills. Her legacy of kindness and dedication will continue to inspire us all.
Dear friends, we are shaken by the sudden death of our dear friend Gönül Güvenç in Vancouver. She was down to earth, loving, kind person with a big gentle heart. She will be missed so much. As per request from her parents, her body will be sent to Turkey. We started this fundraising to help out his brother Seyfi Güvenç with costly funeral and transportation expenses. We are aiming to raise 10,000 and send the deceased to Turkey as soon as possible. Thank you very much for your support.
Dear Toastmasters and Friends,
We are thrilled to unveil the theme of this year's District 96 Conference: "Spring to a New Centennial"! This captivating theme encapsulates our upcoming journey towards further growth, renewal, and the dawn of a new era as we celebrate and build on a century of excellence.
We are proud to announce that this inspiring theme was submitted by one of our very own members. The name of the winning contributor will be revealed during the conference, adding an exciting surprise element to our gathering.
Dear Fellow District 96 Toastmasters,
It takes a village to plan a major District conference. And there is no greater opportunity for our members to learn and grow their leadership skills than by serving on the Conference Planning Committee!
We need YOUR help!
