We at the OMFRC have always devoted ourselves to the service of our community. An important part of this service has always been to provide information and tools to help people our people to not only discover their Aboriginal Ancestry, but to help improve their lives in other ways as well.
Because of our wish to provide the community with the best information and resources possible, and as a tribute to the tireless effort of Art Haines to inform and educate people, we are pleased to announce that we have launched a new website! On it, you will find all of the information that was available on the old website, with many rich and informative additions. Many of these new areas of the website were created so that you, our friends and members, will have a place where you can share things and people who are important to you. We encourage you to take a look around, and we would love to hear about what you think!
We are currently looking for submissions for three areas.
- Our Events Calendar – If you know of an event in your area or community, please send us the details and we will add it to our event calendar. Please provide as much detail as possible to help those who may be interested in attending.
- Our Resource Page – Sharing resources is an important way to help those in our community. If you know of a resource that hasn’t been listed in our directory, please submit it to us. You never know how important that resource could be to someone in our community!
- Our Historical Gallery – People love seeing images of their ancestors. It’s like travelling back in time, and we know it has a deep meaning to people. Oftentimes, there are certain figures who many people can trace their lineage back to, and you never know when sharing your historical pictures may give someone else their first chance to look into the eyes of their ancestors. We would love to have you share your historical portraits, drawings, and other memorabilia with us to celebrate these people and share their stories with the community.
Please send all submissions to omfrcinfo@gmail.com. Thank you so much for your wonderful contributions, and for working with us to build the future we all know we can have if we work together.
