I'm Retiring And Thank You For Everything CCL ❤️

Average Rating:

Dear CCL Volunteers,

bf8c39b866ab04585660ce619dd2e804-huge-snWith many tears, wonderful memories, some relief and a bit of optimism, I have decided that this is the right time for me to join my husband in retirement. It’s been a challenging year that has included a number of reminders that life can be unpredictable and always is changing. I will miss being a member of staff, but there's a good chance you'll hear of me rejoining the ranks as a volunteer in Wisconsin, which has always brought me joy. 

My last day is quite soon because once I reached this decision I realized that I wanted my upcoming trip to see my son in Finland to be the first thing I do as a retired person. My last day is this Monday, September 18th. I love you and I love this organization, and I will continue cheering for you and it forever.

The staff have set up a Kudoboard for me here for any CCLer that would like to share a favorite memory or story from throughout the years. You can also reach me at madeleine@citizensclimate.org and know I will always be happy to hear from you.   

With love,

Madeleine
