A special thanks to everyone!!

Dear: Friends, supporters and members of; "Citizens 4 Change" Dayton Inc.

Effective 12 June 2010, I have decided for reasons of a very personal nature to step aside as the director of "Citizens 4 Change" Dayton. As you all are aware we have experienced a tremendous measure of growth during this past year and it's because of EACH and everyone of YOU! With that said however, I will always reflect upon my service to this organization and the residents whom we have been able to help thus-far. Believe me when I say this, I seriously could NOT have asked for a group of better and more committed people to work with during this past year. For the time being, Lucas Hile will serve as the Director, Karen Sweeney will continue her service as our secretary and Matthew Birdsall as our public relations officer. My personal creative energies will of course soon be used again in the not so distant future. In closing, I would like to say that C4CD will always place the needs of the residents first and foremost. GO DAYTON GO and THANK YOU!

With Humble Regards
Ken Wade A/Founder "Citizens 4 Change" Dayton
