GP-RAVO closing its doors after more than 50 years of volunteer support in Grande Prairie

The Grande Prairie Regional Association of Volunteer Organizations will no longer operate by the end of the month.

GP-RAVO, which was established in 1969, shared on social media and a banner on its website that it will cease operations, as of February 28th of this year.

Neither the post, nor the banner on the website details any reasonings for the closure saying simply- “This decision was not made lightly, and we want to express our sincere gratitude for the support and collaboration we have shared over the years.”

The organization has served a wide variety of clients, ranging from small, rural groups to large agencies that provide services to families, sports groups, Indigenous agencies, and more for more than 50 years in the Grande Prairie region.
