La Perle is expecting some dramatic developments over the next few years. Community Leagues play a vital role in connecting the residents of our neighborhood and providing information and opportunities for engagement with the City of Edmonton and other Civic Project Teams.
Community Leagues are run by Volunteers who live in the Community. Our Board of Directors is made up of people who dedicate their free time to the League and our programs because we live here and we want what's best for our families and neighbors.
However...
As good as our intentions are, we can't do it alone.
We're looking for individual(s) who want to step into a structured role, working in a Volunteer (unpaid) capacity to support the La Perle Community League in Civics support. This person should be organized, thorough, professional and an effective communicator. Ideally (though not required) this individual, or individuals, will be Community League Members in good standing. Police background check will be required.
Civics Committee Lead/Team Member

If you want to see more engagement with Civic projects, consider taking on this critical role with the Community League. Ask yourself, 'if not me, then who?'
