Big thank you to My Star award winners for 2023. These people have made my life much easier by exceeding expectations to help me or the greater team. Congratulations to Tanya Bekker, Ralvern Campbell, Megan Nelms, Tarryn Le Roux, Catherine Levey, Melanie Nel, Anzelle Strydon, and Danielle du Preez. I appreciate everything you do!
What is even more important than my public acknowledgment is the acknowledgment of your peers. So, monthly, we ask the team to provide us with the people who made a difference in their lives. I love this feedback! It is great to hear how we work as a team to help each other. Thank you to our top givers this year. Melanie Nel, thank you for living the ethos of teamwork daily. Honorable mention to Janet Kingston, Cindy de Lange, and Lauren Peters. You are all amazing!
I also want to acknowledge people who hit special work milestones in 2023. Congratulations on 5 years for Danielle Du Preez and 8 years for Alexandra Preston, Melanie Nel, and Cheryl Young. Thank you for your continued support of the team’s success.
A few other highlights for the year are a book club, many get-togethers, our first-ever family day in the USA, and the continued growth of our training programs, helping our team be the best versions of themselves.
Remember, we’re keeping dreams alive because of your efforts!
Community Involvement
We are proud of our continued support of local charities throughout the year.
Protea Conversations supported Canine Companions while providing stories of leadership and growth.
Additionally, we supported many local charities, specifically with the team giving up their time to volunteer at Redwood Empire Food Bank and Maranatha Youth Center.
We are also proud that we were able to support multiple charities through monetary donations. These include Ceres Community Project, Marin Humane Society, Maui County Strong Fund, and Save-a-pet.
Peeking into the Future
Reflecting back, 2023 has been quite the year, right? We’ve learned a ton and made some great memories. Looking ahead, let’s keep that energy going. May the new year bring even more success, happiness, and those little moments that make you smile.
You’re the Best!
We can’t wrap this up without saying a big THANK YOU for being part of our family. It’s your support and energy that make this journey so awesome. Cheers to the times we’ve shared and all the exciting stuff coming our way.
Thanks a million for everything. Happy holidays, and let’s make the next year our best one!
