TranslateGreat News Essex and Hawthorne Families!
We are two-thirds of the way toward our goal of $30,000 and have a great start on volunteers to help us sponsor a family from Syria in their efforts to come to Canada. Hawthorne Parent Council has generously agreed to a donation of about $5,000 and we have $15,000 in personal donations so far. With one full week left to reach our goal, we really appreciate any contribution you can make. Please contact us at hawthorne2sponsorship@gmail.com.
Sponsorship is exciting but it may be a bit unclear so we are holding a public information session next Wednesday, November 18 from 6:30 to 8:30 in the library. With your help we hope to announce that we have reached our goal and can put our school community forward to be matched with a family.
If you are looking for some information in the meantime, please feel free to look at these links:
