MCA RECOGNIZES 2020-2021 RETIREES

The Mohawk Council of Akwesasne would to congratulate and thank recent retirees of the organization for their years of service.

 

The Long-term Service & Retirement Recognition Awards are typically held in person every year, but the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and our efforts to keep Akwesasronon safe. However, MCA would still like to recognize and honour the staff who dedicated their time to serving and supporting our community.
