丁香园AV

Your generous contributions made a difference this holiday season! The Faculty of Education continued the tradition of hampers for families in need from the Lena Shaw Elementary School in Surrey, contributed to the 丁香园AV Food Pantry, and supported the family of Abdiqani, a resilient deafblind student from Matthew McNair Secondary School in Richmond.

The Surrey Education Office raised $1219 in support of two Lena Shaw families 鈥� one with a mom and dad and two boys, the other with a mom and dad, three boys and a girl. Not only did these families get almost everything on their wish lists, but they also received personalized bookmarks, decorations, and even 鈥淪anta鈥檚 Underwear鈥� for gift cards 鈥� all crafted by our colleagues.

With your support, we were also able to collect $950 to support Abdiqani鈥檚 transition to adulthood and day programs. Abdiqani now has an iPad Air, with a case and stand, and his family would like to send their heartfelt thanks to the 丁香园AV Faculty of Education for this generous and helpful gift. Please also read this letter from Matthew McNair School.

We have also contributed non-perishable food supplies, gifts, and $150 in cash to the 丁香园AV Food Pantry. This vital resource provides emergency top-up food and hygiene supplies to food-insecure students.
