Example of a Report for an Annual General Meeting of an Advice Centre

CHAIRPERSON’S ANNUAL REPORT 2011
  1. MEMBERSHIP

We have set up a membership sub-committee under Maria Hendricks. They have been very successful and the membership has increased from 200 to 700 members.

  1. FUNDRAISING

We held a film show at the start of the year and raised R900.

  1. GENERAL MEETINGS

We have held general meetings in different areas this year. Many members came to these meetings and met the committee. This helped the committee to hear what members think.

  1. PROJECTS

HIV/AIDs community forum

The HIV/AIDS Community Forum was established in May 2007. It’s focus is:

  • education and awareness around HIV and AIDS in the Mulati farming area (26 farms)
  • a Voluntary and counselling and testing campaign to have all people living on farms in this area tested

We have held 3 workshops on farms in the past 3 months, attended by 140 people.

  1. PARTNERSHIPS

We are working in partnership with the Agricultural Workers’ Union (AWU) and Education for Farm Workers (EFW) to get this project off the ground. They were very helpful in giving us advice and support. EFW assisted with the workshops.

  1. FUTURE PROJECTS

In the next year we need to:

  • Run workshops on all 26 farms
  • Initiate the VCT programme
  1. I would like to thank the committee for all their hard work.
