Dear Members and Friends of Alliance Francaise of Westchester,

I am pleased to inform you that, effective February 1st, 2026, Ms Karin Godin became our new Executive Director.

Karin has been teaching at the Alliance Française for the past three years and also brings to her new role a wealth of experience from the corporate world. A mother of two teenagers, she lives with her family in Larchmont and is well acquainted with both the challenges and the opportunities of modern education.

She is expected to play a leading role in the continued development of our organization, and I am certain you will join me in welcoming her among us.

I would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Laura-Marine de Tilly, who took the helm in 2023 during a difficult period and successfully guided our organization forward. She will remain involved with AFW, allowing us to continue benefiting from her spirited leadership and ever-present smile. We thank her for her many contributions and are grateful to know we can count on her steadfast support.

Your support and patronage are much appreciated and

I encourage you to remain involved and participate in some of the exciting developments and events which will be announced in the coming weeks.

Best regards and "à bientôt".
Michel A. Perez,
President alliance française du westchester
