A New Addition to the National Office Crew

Dena Hamid

 

Sept 13, 2017

I am very pleased to announce that Dena Hamid has joined the National Office staff as our Bookkeeper.    Dena came on board with us on August 14th and we were very fortunate that she was able to work with Alice Hinton for almost three weeks prior to Alice’s retirement on August 31st.

Dena comes to our organization with many years of bookkeeping and accounting experience.   She has worked in several industries including health care, financial services, small business enterprises and has been involved in the not for profit and charitable sectors.   As well, Dena is an excellent communicator and has a superior customer service approach to her work.   I am positive that her wealth of knowledge, experience and her professional approach will serve CPS-ECP, its districts, squadrons, the CPS Foundation and our members very well.  

If you require bookkeeping or financial information, you may contact Dena at the National Office by e-mail:    accounting@cps-ecp.ca or by telephone at extension 2720.
