VISION STATEMENT: TO BE THE MOST PROGRESSIVE FAMILY FOCUSED ORGANIZATION IN CANADA, MEETING COMMUNITY AND MEMBER NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS. ELKS & ROYAL PURPLE FUND FOR CHILDREN ANNUAL MEETING GYMNASIUM, SIR JOHN FRANKLIN HIGH SCHOOL YELLOWKNIFE, NT Tuesday, July 20, 2010 OPENING Sister Elizabeth Busby, Chair of the National Charities Committee, and Lady Terri Paziuk, Co- Chair of the National Charities Committee, called the Elks & Royal Purple Fund for Children Annual Meeting to order at 10:10 a.m. ADOPTION OF THE MINUTES MOTION: BRO. BILL WARD/BRO. MARK MONTGOMERY: THAT the minutes of the 2009 Elks & Royal Purple Fund for Children Annual Meeting be adopted as printed and circulated. CARRIED REPORTS The 2009-10 Elks & Royal Purple Fund for Children Annual Report was highlighted by Chair, Sister Elizabeth Busby and Co-Chair, Lady Terri Paziuk. MOTION: BRO. DON PEZZUTTO/BRO. TERRY HUNTER: THAT the 2009-10 Elks & Royal Purple Fund for Children Annual Report be accepted as printed and circulated. CARRIED STANTON TERRITORIAL HEALTH AUTHORITY AUGMENTATIVE ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATION (AAC) Ms. Shirley Gau, M.Sc. S-LP (C), Speech-Language Pathologist for the Stanton Territorial Health Authority, was introduced to the delegates. Ms. Gau explained the difficulties for children who can not communicate but are able to understand language and how an augmentative alternative communication (AAC) device offers them the tools they need to express themselves and provides increased opportunities for participation in home, school, and community activities. Ms. Gau then introduced a 7 year old boy named Zuis who has been working with a Speech-Language Pathologist for the last three years. Zuis has severe expressive (talking) communication delay and Zuis and Shirley Gau oral motor difficulties. While he understands everything that is said to him he has difficulty responding as he has difficulty moving his tongue, lips, and jaw for speech. During his demonstration Zuis tried a picture communication book but was limited in what he could say. After researching the various AAC devices, Ms. Gau selected the Vantage Lite computer system which met Zuis’ needs; however the price tag was $10,900.03. As these systems are not funded through the health care system, the financial cost often falls to the family. Thanks to the Elks & Royal Purple Fund for Children and the Yellowknife Elks Lodge, Zuis now has his own Vantage Lite AAC communication device. With this device Zuis is now able to tell jokes, tell you what he did in school and ask questions. Sister Busby presented Zuis with a soccer ball, Frisbee, t-shirt, puck, and sticker. 2010 Grand Lodge Proceedings 1 Yellowknife, NT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The 2009-10 Elks & Royal Purple Fund for Children Financial Statements were presented.
