PwC Saskatoon volunteer of the year honoured with donation to charity.

PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) has recognized staff member Kerrie Hryniuk as the 2007 PwC Saskatoon volunteer of the year for her outstanding work with the Rushnychok Ukrainian Folk Dance Association Inc. A cash donation of $1,000 will be made to the association in recognition of her contributions.

"PwC's volunteer recognition program honours PwC volunteers for their tremendous contributions to their communities," says Monte Gorchinski, PwC's Saskatoon office leader. "PwC is committed to giving back to the community and we're proud of people like Kerrie who set an example for others to follow."

Kerrie is a senior associate with the audit and advisory group at PwC in Saskatoon and for the past five years has donated her time to the Rushnychok Ukrainian Folk Dance Association as the treasurer, as a member of the board of directors and chair of the audits and collection committee. Furthermore, she participates in organizing the year end concert, as well as several fundraisers through out the year.

The volunteer recognition program is active in all PwC offices across Canada and gives staff the opportunity to nominate co-workers who have demonstrated outstanding volunteer efforts over the past year. Honourees are determined by a selection committee of their peers. Recipients of local office volunteer of the year awards are eligible to receive the PwC national volunteer of the year award which will be announced this fall.
