2014 - Another Year of FIRSTS! 
Our cleverly-logoed vehicle made its first appearance at Toronto's Caregiver Show - May 14, 2014

As 2015 begins, it's a good time to reflect on what happened last year and then, begin making plans for the year ahead!

 

Here are some of Downsizing Diva's 2014 highlights:

 

Recipients of NASMM "Circle of Service"

NASMM's Circle of Service designation recognizes members who have attained an elevated level of experience and expertise. The Circle of Service is awarded to NASMM veteran members who are in good standing for a minimum of five years.

 

Co-hosts of The Caregiver Show in Toronto - May 14, 2014

With Metroland Media, we were thrilled to create and host Toronto's First Annual Caregiver Show. Our Sponsors -- Saint Elizabeth Health Care and CCAC were instrumental in making the event happen. At this one-day show, family caregivers met and chatted with a variety of service providers and discovered resources to help them on their caregiving journey.         

 

Drivers of an attention-getting vehicle

We've had our names on our vehicles for ages. In 2014, we took the plunge and made a real fashion statement and put the Divamobile on the roads in and around Toronto!

 

Downsizing Divas are working... coast-to-coast!

In August, we welcomed Judy Mitchell and Terry Miller into the Downsizing Diva family and could finally say there are Divas helping Seniors across Canada. Judy and Terry help seniors and their families in Saint John, NB.

 

Looking back on these "firsts" and a number of other events last year, we can now look forward to embracing 2015 with commitment, focus and enthusiasm.

 

Our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of Seniors who are downsizing and moving.

Challenge for January

 

At the beginning of each year, a friend of ours creates one or two
KEY WORDS to set the tone for the year ahead. Sounds good to us... no pressure, just something to work towards.

 

There are millions of words to choose from and each word will have a different meaning for each of us. Think about where you are in your life and what you might do to add some more interest and meaning.

 

What are your words? How will you use them in 2015?

Thought for January

 

Honour the past.

Live the present.

Create the future!
