Original Founders, 1965:
Tom Hughes*, Peter Stratton
*Tom Hughes founded the AWFC in 1965 thanks to major benefactor Peter Stratton. Mr. Hughes remained with the Foundation as President for the next 35 years. The role of President then became a term-limited, elected position.
The role of President, along with the other officer positions of Vice President, Treasurer and Secretary, are voted on each year by the AWFC’s Board of Directors at its Annual General Meeting in April. Directors serve 3-year terms. If you would like to join the AWFC’s Board, please send an email to info@awfc.ca.
