Re: group's donation
2008-Feb-25-1243hrs
At our last meeting, we agreed that we would make a donation to some community group and it was suggested that I visit a literacy group in Malvern. Further to the message below which I sent out on December 18, I would suggest that we donate $200. to this program. Can we have an email vote on this?

Barbara and I visited Malvern After-School Intergenerational Program which is operated out of Church of the Nativity by former educators Eunice Chaderton and Claudette Antoine with the help of volunteers. (More volunteers are needed.) The students are assisted with homework and they receive instruction in reading, math, drama, guitar, drumming, computer. The students receive a nutritious meal prepared on the premises by a volunteer who has experience in nutrition.

The group receives some funding from Parkdale Golden Age Foundation, but this is not enough. A Read-A-Thon is being held on January 18, 2008 from 6 to 8pm. Guests are invited to come and read with the children. Sponshorship forms are available by calling 416-289-0903.
This is a stable, well organised program.
