With your help, we did it again!! We surpassed our goal and filled 290 backpacks yesterday! Children and students at Women's Habitat, Ernestine's Women's Shelter, Youth Without Shelter, Black Creek Community Health Centre and the Jean Tweed Centre will be receiving their bags before school starts. That's a lot of happy kids and happy Moms too thanks to YOU!!!
