Hello,
I hope you had a great summer!
As we get into the fall groove, I am excited to share more details with you about upcoming COCHF events and workshops that were announced in early August:
On Thursday, September 21, 2023, COCHF is offering an on-line workshop on Board Basics/How to be a Good Director. This workshop is ideal for new directors, directors who want a refresher, and for members of your community that are part of your board succession plan. The cost for this workshop is $50.00 per person for your first four registrants, $25.00 per person for any additional participants. Sliding scale is available upon request. Senbd request to attend to Joan by September
Rounding out COCHF’s Fall 2023 Workshop series is Thursday, October 19, 2023’s on-line financial literacy workshop, presented in collaboration with Alterna Savings. This workshop is free and will include insight into financial statements, audit, director responsibility, and a Q&A period.
And finally, as our last member event of 2023, all members are invited to COCHF’s ABM/reception/awards on Thursday, November 2, 2023, and to our educational event and social on Saturday, November 4, 2023, both at the Delta Waterloo. Registration for these events will open shortly.
