Greetings!
We are happy to announce that El Nido is transitioning to an electronic newsletter. We think you'll find our updated format to be streamlined and user-friendly. Going electronic benefits our organization by reducing printing and mailing expenses, and we'll end up saving some trees in the process, too! To ensure that you continue to receive the latest news from El Nido Family Centers, please keep your profile updated by clicking here. If for any reason you prefer to receive a hard copy in addition to the electronic newsletter, just notify us with your request. We're also proud to unveil a brand new website. Check it out and let us know what you think! |
