Bay of Quinte MP Ryan Williams is celebrating Community Champions this week.
Twenty-six Quinte West recipients were honoured Monday for their selfless service to the region.
Williams applauded the selfless actions and commitment of the recipients saying, “Today, we honour those who have chosen to invest their time in their communities. These unsung heroes recognize that the true measure of life is not in the years we count, but in the moments we give to others. They dedicate themselves to causes greater than themselves, enriching the lives of others and leaving a lasting impact… You have shown us the true value of time through your actions, teaching us that when we give our time to others, we create a legacy that endures.”
