Volunteer of the Month

Frances Biela

Frances Biela began volunteering at the Immigrant Centre in January 2018, first as a One-on-One English Tutor and then as an English Conversation Group Facilitator. She has previously been recognized for her outstanding performance, when she was named the Volunteer of the Month in November 2019.

Throughout her time at the Centre, Frances has been a consistent and reliable volunteer who has never missed a class, and has been very generous with her time, often signing up to teach more than one session per week. Since she started volunteering at the Centre, Frances has contributed 521 hours towards helping newcomers.

“I love every minute I spend as a volunteer with the AEC. Walter’s enthusiasm is infectious and motivates and encourages us all.”

Thank you, Frances,  for your time and commitment to helping our clients.
