Café-CORPS D’ELITE PROGRAM
Recognition of Contribution

“The heart berry” reminds of reconciliation and teaches us how to maintain heartfelt relationships in our families and communities. During the strawberry harvest, many communities hold feast, welcoming everyone home, and letting go of differences, judgement, and self-righteous. Café-musique welcomes those who have made a major contribution.

Our Mission:

Cafe-musique (a bilingual non-profit production company) in serving its partners and audiences will endeavour to Envision, Excite, Enlist, Embrace, Engage, and Empower, the community to stage musical theatrical productions and events that promote history, Founding Nations, culture, performing/visual arts and community.

“Organizations can recognize volunteers by acknowledging their individual contributions. Let your volunteers know the impact they have on your organization’s mission and in the community.”

Creating a Culture of Appreciation

“Volunteer recognition begins during the recruitment process. Understanding what volunteers look for in the volunteer experience, along with being flexible by offering the types of roles they want, are types of recognition.” (Volunteer Canada)
