Aid for Haitiimage
School communities throughout the Greater Essex County District School Board reacted swiftly to the immense natural disaster in Haiti and the incredible need for immediate aid.
Not long after the early estimated level of destruction had been reported, coin drives were started, fund raisers were planned and action was taken to provide support for the survivors of the devastating earthquake.
A suggested Board initiative was to collect funds to purchase Shelterboxes (check out: www.shelterbox.ca) which provide much needed temporary housing and basic comforts to the thousands of people left homeless. Some schools have elected to direct their contributions to the Canadian Red Cross or Doctors Without Borders.
So far thousands of dollars have been raised by the students and staff of the Greater Essex County District School Board for the people of Haiti.
The GECDSB is proud to have been recognized by the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit as a Platinum Plus Award winner for leading the way in providing comprehensive healthy workplace programs through its Joint Employee Assistance Program and Wellness Education Centre.   Read More from the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit website >
