My daughter, Lorelle, has worked at HiCity for almost three years. She loves her work and is reluctant to miss even one day. Lorelle takes pride in the particular task assigned to her and enjoys telling me what she has done during her day. The staff are supportive in giving Lorelle the opportunity to try working in different areas. This year she was elected to represent fellow workers at the committee meetings. She felt extremely honoured to be asked to do this. HiCity has provided her with a wonderful network of friends and a wide and varied social life. The HiCity Social Club gives the workers the opportunity to go on trips, see films and shows and participate in sporting activities. I have never seen Lorelle so happy and confident as she is now. HiCity encompasses more than just a workplace. It is integral in the wellbeing of all who work there because it provides a place where they feel valued for what they do. It is a place where they can make and maintain long lasting friendships, so important to us all. Please look further than in monetary terms and keep ADEs operating the way there are.
