Passionate Heart Celebration
The Passionate Heart Celebration is about recognizing the important people dedicating work to the well-being of our communities. Most people serving in the recognition categories do not expect recognition outside of the everyday benefits of helping and they often choose these roles with the intention of giving behind the scenes. The Passionate Heart Celebration is our way of saying thank you for all of your valued work and care.
Sponsored by the Family Community Support Services (FCSS) in the City of Grande Prairie and County of Grande Prairie and towns of Beaverlodge, Sexsmith, and Wembley, the Passionate Heart celebration recognize outstanding contributions in the area of social services within the region.
Tickets for the Passionate Heart Celebration Luncheon go on sale Monday, December 8 at bonnettsenergycentre.com
