About the Sheila and Victor Goldbloom Distinguished Community Service Award

The Fondation Notre Home Foundation will be cooperating with Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) to present the annual awards ceremony for the Sheila and Victor Goldbloom Distinguished Community Service Award.

Established by the Quebec Community Groups Network in 2009, the Goldbloom Award celebrates individuals who have gone above and beyond in contributing to the vitality and understanding of English-speaking Quebec. Candidates must have contributed to strengthening the English-speaking community and to building bridges between Quebecers of different backgrounds. Winners should have demonstrated leadership and commitment as a volunteer or as a professional in their chosen field of endeavour. The guiding principle is that these individuals have provided strong and effective leadership and succeeded in improving the quality life of English-speaking Quebecers and the broader society.

About the Tastes of Notre Home “FriendRaiser”

Tastes of Notre Home Photo

The Tastes of Notre Home “FriendRaiser” was the first main event held by the Fondation Notre Home Foundation. The Board of the foundation invited friends to come and savour the products of Quebec’s terroir while introducing them to our charitable organization dedicated to supporting the vitality, development, and institutions of Quebec’s English-speaking community. This feast of local products and potent potables, which took place on Thursday, June 2 at 6 p.m., was held in the reception room of Sacred Heart High School, 3635 Atwater Avenue (entrance/parking via Dr. Penfield). Five dozen friends and supporters were on hand to sample the diversity of our community of communities and support a good community cause. Considering this a successful appetizer, the board of the foundation is already planning a follow-up feast for next spring.
