Cornerstone Family and Youth's annual general
meeting was held Tuesday, Jan. 16. the non-profit
organization's coordinator Jenn Sedor summed up

2018 will be just as strong.”

affordable and accessible family-friendly
programming to Carlyle and area communities - areas

programs and the CFY Girls Group for teens, to name a few. Members of this year's CFY board are:

Good Friday
Meals for Moms is a program where families of newborn babies receive a few frozen meals ready to pop
in the oven or on the stove for an easy, stress free meal. These frozen meals are provided by volunteers in
our community, mostly other moms “paying it forward”. If you are expecting or would like to donate a
meal, please contact: Carly Berg (306) 575-7905 [email protected] or Jade Moore (306) 575-
