One of the priorities set by JPAA Canada president Upali Obeyesekere and his team for year 2015/2016 was to stimulate its 1000+ past students of SJC & SPC domiciled in Canada to join the Joint Josephian-Peterite Alumni Association of Canada. The association has stood its test and proved a reliable forum for all Josephians and Peterites to band together and renew friendships that were established in the hallways of the two premier Roman Catholic Schools in Sri Lanka. In keeping with this priority, the attached membership list shows the members in good standing as at December 31, 2015, end of the fiscal year.

Total membership revenue collected and deposited in 2015 = $885.00

Hi Upali,

I regret to inform you that I must resign my post as acting treasurer effective immediately.

I have been acting in good faith as a treasurer on your call but I cannot commit to continue due to external pressures and circumstances from work. 

Thanks for your understanding in this matter.

 

Regards, Christy Joseph
