More than 40 members and friends attended our Holiday Reception December 13 at our AF Center. The food was prepared by our members and was delicious.
We also want to thank our fantastic student volunteers Carly, Claire, Heidi, Sophie and Walter from the Pomperaug High School French Honor’s Society. They helped greet our guests, take their coats and serve throughout the night. Those who were there were very impressed with their professionalism and smiling faces.
Suite à la demande de plusieurs parmi vous, (vous voyez? je vous écoute!) nous pouvons maintenant accepter les cartes de crédit comme paiement pour les dons, les cotisations et les programmes. George Roberts, notre web- mestre par excellence vient de finir d’installer les “boutons”
qui vous ameneront directement au site de PayPal où, même si vous n’avez pas de compte avec PayPal, vous allez pouvoir utiliser votre carte de crédit pour payer!
C’est formidable, n’est-ce pas? Nous entrons dans le 21ième siècle!
Et, en parlant des dons – nous voulons remercier nos membres généreux (voir Donations page) qui ont contribué d’avantage au moment de cotiser. Aidez- nous! Si nous voulons avoir un Centre pour notre École, nous avons besoin d’augmenter le nombre de nos membres et étudiants, et aussi, nous avons besoin de fonds! Peut-etre aimeriez-vous essayer notre nouveau système de PayPal et faire un don pour soutenir notre mission et nos efforts. Merci Beaucoup!
