Last week we celebrated Yennenga Progress annual meeting in Stockholm! It was a sunny and cheerful evening with lots of interesting people!During 2011, we have focused on adding structures to best serve our heroes around the world. As part of this Deloitte took over all financial administration and we can proudly present Johanna Eriksson and Johanna Groth as our accounting department.
During the year we also received 90-account, which means we meet the highest demands in terms of ethical and responsible fundraising and projects, and we undergo annual checks by the Swedish collection control.
In April last year Yennenga Progress Burkina Faso, became a registered local organization. Since we have so many active Yennenga Networkers in Burkina Faso, it is important to have a structure in place. The idea is that we gradually start more such units, as Yennenga activities in other countries grows larger.
The structures fall into place and we have many dedicated Yennenga Networkers who help to make Yennenga Progress to what we are! We have lots of exciting projects ahead of us and are so happy for all partnerships and networks that are growing!
Great sponsors offered to eat during our annual meeting, so the celebration could continue the whole evening! Many thanks to all sponsors, our inspiring speaker Martin Sande, members and friends who created a wonderful evening and who is with us forward into an exciting new year of activities!
Today we celebrate another Swedish tradition here in Sweden: Lucia! She was not from Sweden, but we still celebrate her courage and dedication. And heroes are supposed to be celebrated!
