KidsAbility needs our help to support children and youth in the Waterloo Region.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

How Can I Help?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) is hosting an end-of-the-year fundraising campaign<\/span> until <\/span>Friday, June 14, 2024, to<\/b> support <\/span>KidsAbility<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

If you know someone who is in a position to donate, please consider sharing this campaign with them. Their donation will help support over 17,000 children and youth to reach their communication, social, physical and behavioural goals each year.<\/span><\/p>\n

We aim to raise $65,000, which equals $1 for every WRDSB student. Currently, donations are at $18,791. Let’s work together to reach our goal!<\/b><\/p>\n
