The Consultants hired for forthcoming Vital Signs Project Community Foundation Grey Bruce Submitted The Community Founda- tion of Grey Bruce is pleased to announce that its search for a Project Manager for its new Vital Signs project has come to a successful conclu- sion. Watson & Associates, a consulting firm from Missis- sauga, Ontario, has been awarded the contract. Jack Ammendiola and Emily Hazell will be representing the firm for the duration of the project. Community Foundation Grey Bruce, a public charity, generates long-term sustain- able resources through donations for the creation or growth of endowed funds. The earned revenue from the pooled, invested funds is granted to not-for-profit organizations throughout Grey Bruce, supporting the widest range of organiza- tions and initiatives possible through community giving. Vital Signs is a national initiative undertaken by Community Foundations across Canada. The report highlights and comments on a number of quality of life indicators that measure and grade the vitality of each community, leading to the identification of significant social and economic trends. Through a combination of data review and comparative analysis, Vital Signs is a tool for aligning community goal -setting, for promoting civic engagement and dia- logue, and for measuring collective community well-being. Of the six proposals that the Foundation received, Watson & Associate's out- standing references gar- nered from recent successful local contracts and their knowledge of the region set them apart. The firm's proven expertise in data analysis assured the Foun- dation's Vital Signs selection committee that they were the most appropriate firm to support CFGB's first Vital Signs project. "We look forward to work- ing with the Foundation on this exciting and important project, and trust that our experience in data collection and analysis can result in a successful outcome and informative product," said Jack Ammendiola of Watson & Associates.
