Elmwood contributes to Haiti Relief Effort

Wednesday January 27

Elmwood School has collaborated with 11 Ontario independent schools to raise money for the Haiti Relief Effort. The Elmwood Community has raised a total of $2,300 towards the combined $23,000 Conference of Independent Schools total.

This money will go to the ShelterBox initiative. Each ShelterBox is an actual box filled with emergency supplies. It contains a ten person tent, thermal blankets, a camp stove, water containers, water purification tablets, cooking utensils and basic tools. It can house a family of ten for up to a year.

“While I'm proud that our girls helped do their part, there is still so much that needs to be done,” said Headmistress Cheryl Boughton.
