    LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

    I would just like to take the opportunity to wish everyone a very happy and healthy holiday season. I hope everyone has the time to enjoy with family and friends and to reflect on how fortunate we all are. Despite the governmental ups and downs I think everyone would agree that we've had a great year here in Toronto and I wish you all continued prosperity and good fortune in 2007.

    Hope to see you all next Thursday at the Dominion Club.

    Best regards
    Amanda Van Veen, President, IETA (of Toronto)

    IETA CHRISTMAS CARDS

    The IETA board has decided this year that in lieu of sending cards for the holidays that we would like to donate $5000.00 on behalf of our IETA members to The Hospital for Sick Kids Foundation. We will be sending out an ecard to all of our members which you will be receiving in the next couple of weeks.

    OUT OF THE COLD


    From left to right John Christofilos, Tina Ambrosio, Craig Aucoin, Amanda Van Veen, Darryl Noronha pictured as they volunteered serving dinner with the Out of the Cold program.

    What an evening!!! The IETA has made a $3,000.00 contribution to the "St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church Out of the Cold Program". The board members presented the cheque to the program on Monday, November 20, 2006, and then helped in the serving of dinner. The hot dinner included soup, sandwiches, choice of macaroni and cheese or chicken pot pie, and for dessert, chocolate cake and ice cream. There was also an opportunity at the dinner for the guests to visit a clothing boutique, offering them warm coats, pants and shoes.

    The evening was extremely gratifying and humbling, with plenty of interesting and entertaining conversations. A special thanks to Nicole Swartout for informing us of this great program.

    Best regards
